Was Bitcoin forcefully hardforked on 27 Dec 2017? Yes it was, a hardfork is a departure from original chain. 3rd party segregate witness is not the creators vision of a free person to person (peer to peer) interaction. Lightning is like opening a bank account (you have to establish a connection) and a shop can refuse you to establish a connection for what ever reason they like to come up with. A connection is for a lifetime so you become a obedient slave. Hard core Bitcoiner will never depart Satoshie’s vision and continue on his creation and work. BSV is a decentralized blockchain and not controlled by Craig or anyone else. Miners with the hashing control a PoW chain. Lots of smart devs departed BCH and work on BSV  now. BCH is a Chinese miners version of bitcoin and in future when block reward get to low (halving ever 4 years) the greedy miners will change max supply as they have the votes with the hashing power. The roadmap for the segwit  version is similar, next fork when backward comparability stop and the fork after that when max supply changes which will happen as it has been mentioned several times.  Rain Hail or Snow BSV stays true Satoshi course. https://bitcoinsv.io/

Of course it will.
In 2018 2,054,976,219 xrp where added to circulating supply, which means on average 5,630,072 daily. As there is no supply halving it means in 30 years time still x millions hit the market daily.
Most version of Bitcoin and other proper cryptocoins halve supply every 4 years. Currently about 1900 coins are mined daily in 30 years 8.
So no reduction on supply for xrp and halving after halving for proper crypto and you think it has chance of survival, yeh Santa clause is coming.

Circulation graph

Pos coins: Peercoin the first and Blackcoin the first PoW - PoS where are they? Of the hundreds or thousands of them how many can be found at top?

BTW, daily reminder in just 30 years, only 8 BTC will be mined every day (currently ~1900)

What a you talking about. Is this happening a lot in your tribe in the jungle?

Bitcoin is an altcoin, it hard forked on 27 December 2017 to create the segregated witness version departing the white paper and creators implementation.
If you hardfork you create alternative version.

Almost 60 Billion xrp (58951319769) not circulation officially, plus the listed as circulating but unsold personal stack of
Chris Larsen 17.1 Billion XRP
Brad Garlinghouse, owns additional XRP tokens
Chris' foundation has has 7 Billion and
Arthur 3 Billion
David 1 Billion
Karl-Theodor Maria Nikolaus Johann Jacob Philipp Franz Buhl-Freiherr von und zu Guttenberg unknow amount
and Jeb, by court order is allowed  to sell $10000 worth of xrp every week of his 5+ Billion xrp stack.

Inflation
2016 xrp 2.8%    Euro 1.14%
2017 xrp 2.4%    Euro 1.35%
2018 xrp 2.05%, Euro 1.73%
About 8 Million xrp have been destroyed so far less than 0.002% per year so adjusted figures 2016 2.798%, 2017 2.398% and in 2018 2.0498% inflation.

Part time comedian, EOS has a timestamp of Jun-08-2018, how is that longest existing when Bitcoin 10 year old is.

When did a currency become an investment with a build in guarantee of ~2% inflation loss.
Currency dealers have been trading currency's for hundreds of years none came of the idea to invest in it.
If it is secured cryptographic, with watermark or joe blows signature makes no difference.
Stocks, Property, Shares, Gold, Silver,  ...... are investments they may go down in value but by default to not have a build in loss of 2% every year.
Most versions of Bitcoin, supply halves every 4 years, deflationary.

Before sending money a KTC (Know the Company) is required with full copies of ID's and all. Sending money to total strangers on net is crazy.
First step is to know who you are dealing with.

And XRP is the scam of all coins.

Banks have absolutely nothing to do with xrp, its pure fud. No bank has or will ever buy a single xrp or use one the sign agreements with Ripple Inc which itself only uses xrp in extreme rare circumstances like less the 5% of the time.

If the original bitcoin is changed so much that it has nothing to do with the original which is the case with segregated witness then it is no longer the original. SV sticks to original implementation come rain, hail whatever, no bugging the creators work is continued.
Bitcoincashes future is uncertain.

Besides beat, defeat is there some kind of football game.

Oh, the technology is top notch if you are pro slavery.

KYC works both ways, did you demand driving license and selfie of the person you about to sent some money or any random stranger found on the net will to.
KTC, Know the Company first.

Very much sums it up. A typical paid Ripple Inc. shill promoting the worthless xrp-

Slavery has no room in modern society, xrp is full blown enslavement. A shop can refuse to establish a banking connection, if one is established its for live, all purchases are visible forever.

The future will be freedom for all.

Well the finger length dead giveaway had to be removed. Female hand added. Coloring needs improving.

When did a currency become an investment with a build in guarantee of ~2% inflation loss. 
Currency dealers have been trading for hundreds of years. You mean they are total idiots and should have just invested and be filthy rich now.
If it is secured cryptographic, with watermark or joe blows signature makes no difference.
Stocks, Property, Shares, Gold, Silver,  ...... are investments they may go down in value but by default to not have a build in loss of 2% every year.


Xrp inflation in 2018  2.05%
