https://www.extremetech.com/internet/254280-two-weeks-later-bitcoin-forkingexcellent article... On Github(i heard he just got removed after this, check his twitter), Jeff Garzik writes: Segregated Witness support has been locked-in as a soft fork expected to activate around August 23 2017 (block height 481,824). Bitcoin clients that are not currently SegWit-compatible and wish to benefit from the new type of transaction must perform extensive upgrades to various subsystems, including changes to transaction serialization, signature hash computation, block weight calculation, scripting engine, block validation, a new address scheme, and P2P protocol upgrades. Fortunately Segregated Witness compatibility is opt-in, and existing Simplifed Payment Verification (SPV) wallets and full nodes are expected to continue working without changes after SegWit activates.

https://cash.coin.dance/blocks Altcash update: Blockchain Overview There have been 1025 blocks mined since the hard fork.
(1452 blocks behind the original chain)
The Bitcoin Cash blockchain is currently operating at 13% of the original chain's difficulty.
The original chain has grown 2.11GB more than the Bitcoin Cash blockchain.
It is currently 8% more profitable to mine on the original chain. No need to worry, nothing to see here... Do you understand that we are all just considering BCH another altcoin in our portfolio and just waiting for the best trades to increase our BTC? It's just a natural hedge to use when/if Bitcoin dumps. I don't think anyone has really spent anything on it... except maybe for some Bigblockers. ffs yes i do, thats why im trying to tell you...you are wrong and misleading others.... Description: Bitcoin Cash is a split from Bitcoin with a protocol upgrade to fix on-chain capacity. If Bitcoin Cash gets majority of PoW then it becomes de facto Bitcoin. (#1 reason its not an alt) It will be a Bitcoin without segwit as soft fork, where upgrades of the protocol are done mainly through hard forks, without changing the economic rules of the Bitcoin. op hostfat staff https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2040221.0aswell as the censorship issue ... listen to what VB says about bch...its not an alt-coin... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uL9VoxCFqT0@ 30 secs in...but listen carefully to all and read comments..please

how often those profit taking occur daring a such pump, mrpump?
its hard to explain lol, each coin is dif. There are many signs a few are, momentum, buy support, sell side, the overall mood sentiment towards the coin and lots more. Its very dangerous for people to take alot of regular profit , when a coin is so undervalued esp when its $500 bitcoin...you just get taken out. Best not chart watch too much and read more into why bch is the real Bitcoin then you will learn its true value, bitcoin is powered up and cheap as fk ..wow lol

pullback,retrace,profit taking...all just happened...get back in asap if you want to carry on the real Bitcoin journey

^^ ...but you have an alternative cryptocurrency that you can use though right? no one is forcing you to use either BTC or BCH...
me neither for that matter.
Markets...they are all bitcoin, when we want to swap an alt...we will have to pay extra for using segwitcoin version...so will the exchanges and miners and pools ...everyone! thats just a few of the top of my head, theres alooot more. No one will be forcing any of them to use either BTC or BCH or SegwitX2 - the market , the exchanges, the users ,the miners they can all decide and they all have the free choice to use either, both, or neither. Free market and all that. They/we are deciding right now. Currently bch is treated like and alt by exchanges and forums, this will change.

https://cash.coin.dance/blocks , Thanks too Mr grasshpr since BCH diff is 13% of BTC, it would require BCH price to be 13% or more of BTC price for it to be more profitable thats 560 USD currently BCH price was above 560 for a moment, but then corrected a bit (way overbought on RSI now) oh and coin.dance just updated: It is currently 0% more profitable to mine on the original chain. 10min ago, bch was more profitable, within next few hours, it will begin to secure its position as most profitable coin. Nobody here should be upset...everyone got compensated fairly with the airdrop, and the price of The real Bitcoin is still around $500... THIS IS A BUY THIS IS BITCOIN

i hope you understand 3rd party controlling btc is wrong and will not happen.
There is too much to lose for to many huuuge players (miners,exchanges,fi,vc,traders+ many more) by following blockstream 3rd party coin now.
Bitcoin was always meant to fork to remove the 1mb limit, this is how it was supposed to happen, problem is too many were misinformed and forums are censored.

100%...not worth my while to touch the cold keys for this BS
100%. But at what price does it become worth it? Is this a test? yes it is a test... are you willing to sacrifice your profits and backing on a 3rd party segcoin and sell out the future for everyone? or will you continue with the vision of the creator of crypto...no 3rd parties ever, no matter how much money is involved? in a much fairer system, the one we are all familiar with. What's you BCH percentage since fork? Have you already sodl all your BTC to buy more BCH? Thanks for these relevant news and insights Mrpumperitis. Why sell so cheap ? Plus you said you sold ALL your coins I think someone is telling lies mmmm hmmmm another question...ok i will answer, but from now on, if i ask you something you better at least try to reply lol after this next ath, its gonna dump back to under $3500... i want to put my funds into bch (i dumped a few days ago @$4400, and rebought @$3900, now going to dump both bundles for a better effect, 1st one will be bought from the sell side by noobies, 2nd will be dumped ) Over the next few days/weeks , i will be selling ALL my btc for bcc Hopefully catch some noob dumps @ this price or cheaper, then i will begin buying more bcc from then on , I WILL NOT SUPPORT SEGWIT COIN
i just sold a big bunch of segwit coin for $4400 it may try one more push up (i got sells ready lol) then switcheroo...it will be epic segwitcoin dump and bch correction yea polo now says bch -29%....UP WE GO tek tek, why do you do this to yourself lol

But still there are not many use cases for BCH compared to BTC. So why would people redirect their mining power to mine something is not used/accepted widely?
it has all the same uses cases, plus more , as bch does microtransactions (huge) + more fixes and i hear things about instant tx with 0conf Bitcoin has forked and improved as it was always meant to do, the miners, exchanges and pro's all know this. There is no-way these groups of people will hand over control of their wallets, tx's and other things to a 3rd party forever.Indeed, Segwitbitcoin will have no use case for the freedom-minded individuals refusing to trust and rely on a second-layered 3rd party. I don't intend to use the Lightning network. And as the fees for regular onchain transactions will continue to be too high, Segwitbitcoin is no longer an appealing payment option for many groups and individuals. Classic m8, aswell as the censorship issue ... listen to what VB says about bch...its not an alt-coin.... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uL9VoxCFqT0@ 30 secs in + is VB hinting something in the background...i see Bitcoin cash also the comments for the video must be read. Yes the comments are excellent, like this one:"Free market and real decentralisation is in the choice to not have to follow some dictatorship of others. In this case Bitcoin Core use fear to scare others from forking and creating a proper decentralised Bitcoin, the one Satoshi created, and Bitcoin Core want to destroy. Bitcoin Cash is what had to happen, and I am happy having way more real Bitcoin coins now in Bitcoin Cash, then what I had in Bitcoin, which is on its dying bead right now. At least Bitcoin did its thing, and now Bitcoin Cash continues its legacy.... and Blockstream Core can have their centralised payment system.... after all they can if they want to... that is what free market is about.... but they cannot block others doing what they want."
siraz please check out more info, bitcoin is on sale ..$400ish is nothing, this is going over $10k-$50k+, then higher over the next 5-10yrs on another note..you said, ill look foolish if im wrong...how will i look if im right? and your wrong?

siraz, thanks and i hope you have researched well, i hope you understand 3rd party controlling btc is wrong and will not happen. There is too much to lose for to many huuuge players (miners,exchanges,fi,vc,traders+ many more) by following blockstream 3rd party coin now. Bitcoin was always meant to fork to remove the 1mb limit, this is how it was supposed to happen, problem is too many were misinformed and forums are censored. Anyways, hope you dig deeper and find out yourself, gd luck on all your ventures bro
