I hope somebody screenshotted that Kraken status update
he thought better of it and took it down
I don't have a screenshot, but I copied it: I fell asleep at my desk. In a dream, the ghost of a butterfly from the future whispered to me "the dollar hit 0 bitcoin". I wake up, people around me dabbing the blood from their eyes. Progress has been made but not enough. I crack my whip -- "we aren't getting to zero like this!". The flogging will continue until morale improves. Expect another update after I make my rounds. I'm sorry I've let you down.

Yep, and those of us who were hodlers of both sides were labelled fools and shills. You've got to be a special kind of cocky to think only one side of a contentious fork is valuable and that you can pick which side that is immediately after the fork. Clearly there are people who value each path. That's why it is contentious.
A contentious fork is something different. BCH was not launched as a result of a contentious fork, more like an altcoin with a shared tx history but with different parameters. A major catalyst for BCH was segwit being forced down miners throats when less than the original threshold was in favor of it. IIRC the code was rather clear that in case of less than X% miner adoption segwit wouldn't happen, with X being something like 90-95%... how is that "forcing" miners? Segwit only happened because the miners signaled in favor of it - even though some had a twist (2x) to it. https://github.com/bitcoin/bips/blob/master/bip-0148.mediawikiSupport was at around 40 percent. Then BIP-148 came along and threatened to disconnect any nodes that relayed blocks that were not signaling for segwit. At that point, you either signal or stop mining, so miners signaled. They were also encouraged by strong support (90%+) for the segwit2x agreement, which turned out to be a joke. BCH forked off to avoid segwit and increase blocksize. How is that not a contentious fork?
One morning Wu decided that if btc goes with segwit he will launch his altcoin. This is unilateral action. It's like me deciding that I want to launch bitcoin <another name here> for whatever reason. It's not an organic split like what happened, say, in ETH, where the devs proposed a change and some people stuck with the old chain where "code is law". There's a difference. Even Wu won't claim BCH is Bitcoin. He says it's something different. At least he's honest about it. There is a very large community of bitcoiners besides Wu involved with BCH. If you never venture out of bitcointalk.org or /r/bitcoin, I can't blame you for being blind to it. Censorship tends to create echo chambers, to the detriment of the people in those chambers. I never made the claim that BCH is Bitcoin. Clearly that moniker is more closely associated with the Segwit chain. But that may change with time. My claim is that BCH is more closely aligned with Satoshi's whitepaper. At 1MB and with 2 week difficulty adjustment, the segwit chain is much more fragile than BCH. BCH's mempool has not ever seen backlog and now that the difficulty adjustment algorithm has been upgraded, blocks times are much more reliable than the segwit chain.

How is that not a contentious fork? BCH is arguably much close to the original bitcoin than the chain with the BTC symbol. I'm not saying that BCH is the one true bitcoin or that it will surpass BTC in price. But there is no reason to think it doesn't have value. Of course, by now I should know that trying to be reasonable about the situation in here is about as productive as yelling into a hurricane.

Wait... Didn't Bcash go thru a contentious hard fork of its own? It's not being talked about a lot in the forum but on Twitter you got guys like Whalepanda laughing their asses off calling the fork 'Bcash Clashic'. Lol. I wonder how that came about. It's hilarious. And it would be funny if iamTom123 makes a meme of Roger Ver with this: There was a hard fork with some minor grumbling about implementation details, but nobody continued to mine on the old rule set. So the rules forked, but the chain didn't. Exactly how things should have been done all along. But we have too many vested interests trying to divide and conquer this community, and too many gullible sheep who buy into it.

It's correction time.
Even if we are correcting, the money seems to be flowing out of Bitcoin and into Bitcoin Cash. The original Bitcoin holders ate not losing much. But if you took a punt and dumped your Bitcoin cash, then you are exposed to more volatility. Yep, and those of us who were hodlers of both sides were labelled fools and shills. You've got to be a special kind of cocky to think only one side of a contentious fork is valuable and that you can pick which side that is immediately after the fork.

It does seem that BCH efforts are being redirected in what i can only assume is anticipation of seg2x but they kinda shot themselves in the foot and now have to keep two fronts open. They're spreading thin and can't go in either direction without pissing off their support base. It's ironic that they undermined themselves with a BCH, as without it it'd be much easier for them to rally troops behind 2x
If they were smart, they would have forgot about 2x and just did a soft fork of segwit onto bch. Segwit 8X FTW.

If there are 7 billion people in the world, then 1% would be 70 million using bitcoin in some kind of way... Are we even close to that?
Obviously not. It would take about 280 days to make 70 million transactions on today's Bitcoin Core. Over a month on Bitcoin Cash, which is still too long, but nearly an order of magnitude better. Because big blocks. ... and because abnormal block production rate due to fickle difficulty adjusting mechanisms. Let's tell it all. But I have a question for you, or whoever else may be able to answer: I'm just trying to point out that there is at least one alternative method that a transaction originator can use to split their coins, which does not suffer these drawbacks.
(Namely, including coins from a post-fork transaction in the "splitting" transaction. Can't find jbreher's other post for a proper quote.) Apart from a coinbase transaction, which outputs would qualify? In other words, can a simple guy set up such a splitting transaction without access to a freshly mined block? Any descendant transaction would also be valid. An exchange could split all their coins once they have access to a single UTXO that is unique to one chain. There will likely be services (and exchanges) that accept a dual transaction to a single address (valid on both chains), and then either send you or credit your account with split coins.

This is Bitcoin sub forum, not a BCH sub forum. You have the coin with big blocks that you so desperately wanted, and you got it. So again, why do you repeatedly keep coming back here? Why aren't you off with your little tribe?
Oh, I know why. Because you are a troll. Because only a troll keeps coming back to a sub forum thread after they supposedly got what they wanted. Quit trying to 'save' anyone here from anything. We don't need saving. Everyone here knows what Bitcoin is and what BCH is. And people here want to discuss Bitcoin, not BCH. Nor want to discuss how to turn Bitcoin in BCH.
I am discussing Bitcoin. I am discussing Bitcoin Segwit Core, Bitcoin Segwit 2M, and Bitcoin Cash. Life is a game of probabilities. While I am confident that BCH will eventually be recognized as the One True Bitcoin, only a fool would ascribe 100% to any such outcome. As such, if there is a case for improving Segwit, I am going to make it. I am decidedly not a troll. Are you a troll? Is Segwit Core 'what you wanted'? Then why do you return to this sub forum? Yes, we all (most) probably know what Bitcoin is. I doubt, however, that everyone here was complicit with you appointing yourself arbiter as to what may or may not witness being discussed here. Regardless, it is quite clear that at least some have not yet heard the fact that onboarding the world will take decades at 1MB, and that neither segwit nor LN ameliorates this issue, while block size increases do. If you really want to wallow in willful ignorance, feel free to ignore me. I'd be a little sad -- I seem to remember us having cordial conversations in the past -- but I'd live. "While I am confident that BCH will eventually be recognized as the One True Bitcoin..." with that logic it's definitely good to diversify so you don't loose all of your money. In due time you'll look back and realize how you were taken for a ride, and thank people who stood up to it oh oh do tell how block increases helps on boarding the world? Would you mind doing a simple math on how big your blocks should be for every person in the world to do just one transaction on chain per day? I'll wait Assuming an average transaction size of 600 bytes and 7.5 billion people: 31.25 GB But that's still less than unlimited right? Hmm maybe BU was actually on to something Hey, you could keep up if you had a 425 Mbps connection

No, apparently the real geniuses are the accounts on this thread that want to convince everyone that that Bitcoin core developers are completely and woefully incompetent, that Bitcoin still sucks and if it just had bigger blocks it would take over the whole fkn world. See BCH and their dev team for complete fail. Why does it make you so upset that other people see the world differently than you do? If they are as wrong as you believe, you should just let time prove you right. Instead, you get your panties in a bunch whenever someone says anything you disagree with.

The step in [a] direction was done a few months ago with Segwit and enabling LN.
Neither of which do anything to further the goal of onboarding the world. Whether or not we have Segwit or Lightning, 1MB blocks will require 30 years to get a single transaction to each person on earth. The only way to improve this is with larger blocks. You have your large blocks in BCH. And according to your previous post, BCH is the one true Bitcoin. So. what. the. fk. is. the. problem. ? I was just correcting a flawed assertion by JJG. After the predictable pile-on, this is where we arrive. The only _problem_ per se was the insistence that larger blocks serve no purpose - where demonstrably, they do. Great. So you have your coin BCH, which you say is the one. You have your 8MB large blocks. And you have your little tribe of supporters. You should be happy. But for some reason you aren't. Because you keep coming back, trying to argue for more changes to Bitcoin. Trying to change Bitcoin into BCH. So again. what . the fk. is. YOUR. problem? Can i ask you what is your problem? This is an open forum, a place to discuss and interchange different opinions. You are not even remotely the owner of the truth, and your opinion is one among many very different. It is by your attitude, your constant lack of reason and good constumbres to exchange opinions, that I consider a troll. He got lucky and made some money on the internet. Now he thinks he's a fucking genius. It's a common problem around here.

Guys, is hodl a paradox? When are we supposed to enjoy our riches? I've never had riches before. Should I be living in a richly place now? I've never lived in a richly place before.
I just don't know.
Pick a small % (somewhere between 5 and 20%) and a starting price. Every time price doubles from your starting price, sell your chosen percent. Use a spreadsheet to pick the percent that gives you a mix of fiat and btc you can live with, assuming the wildest valuation you can think of, then stick with it. If you have spare fiat, buy a fixed $ (or euro, or whatever) amount every week. Then relax and enjoy the ride.

Everyone is so sure of themselves. Looking at the 15 minute charts, I see a trap. In fact, I sold some at $3950. Lower highs, lower lows. Decreasing volume on up moves; increasing volume on down moves. If we are going up, why is the herd following the sellers? I'm prepared to be wrong, are you?
Sold some more at 4200, and a little more at 4250... I'm not declaring victory yet, but the volume tells me the trap is closing. You are just hallucinating about that bull trap FUD. Soon you will cry when left behind by the train of bitcoin. Bitcoin is now fueling up to beat it's all time high price. October is the date where bitcoin will create again another history. No tears here. I only play around with a tiny part of my hodlings. If I'm wrong I win slightly less than I would have. If I'm right, I get more BTC. It's starting to look like I'm wrong, but I'm not quite ready to capitulate. BTW, I have October 30th in the new ATH contest .
