So is segwit2x looking likely?

Why are some people against it? What are the disadvantages with seg2x?


Thanks in advance.

SegWit2x code is a joke.

Most don't like it because of religion.

The key is that the goal of it is to activate SegWit before August 1st with the miners. After that we can all forget it and move on.

How sad it is - just another dump by the whales to make weak hands panic so they can buy some cheap coins. As in the real world economy - the rich are getting richer the poor are getting poorer. I guess we're back on the right track though and BTC is recovering...

It's the minnows' fault if they walk straight into whale hands. Anyone with a little gumption should be able to figure out what the score is. I don't have any sympathy for anyone who follows their programming.

In other news there's this - https://medium.com/@ViaBTC/statement-on-bitcoin-user-activated-hard-fork-6e7aebb67e67

If Bitmain does hard fork it's going to be a new coin with another name. I'd say that was rather positive for everyone.

Bitcoin cash even sounds like a crappy alt coin.
It can join BitcoinDark and BitcoinPlus as pointless BitcoinX coins.

Funny that I will be a holder of this Bitcoin Cash if they fork, along with the airdrops of Alts going on, I keep getting given stuff I don't really want, that I then change for 'real money' i.e. Bitcoin!

BitMain announces they will start mining BIP91 today:
"All our #bitcoin mining pools will start running the new #Segwit2x software today"

AntPool mines their first BIP91 block:

Where can i find the source?
No core client out anywhere?

They will end up into accidental forks all over..
What a mess..

That is just a wiki.

Found  at https://github.com/segsignal/bitcoin/commit/f61062c75e102eb2ae9e319b61baa12164fabe01
-        consensus.vDeployments[Consensus::DEPLOYMENT_SEGSIGNAL].nOverrideMinerConfirmationWindow = 672; // ~4.67 days
-        consensus.vDeployments[Consensus::DEPLOYMENT_SEGSIGNAL].nOverrideRuleChangeActivationThreshold = 538; // 80%
+        consensus.vDeployments[Consensus::DEPLOYMENT_SEGSIGNAL].nOverrideMinerConfirmationWindow = 336; // ~2.33 days
+        consensus.vDeployments[Consensus::DEPLOYMENT_SEGSIGNAL].nOverrideRuleChangeActivationThreshold = 269; // 80%

this is messy..

Chinese mining cartel is a cancer in the ecosystem...

People will see through their actions , even if they fork , their shitcoin will go down in flames. People won't forget what they did.

HOPEFULLY youre deadwrong ...... closest to gets PAID same day and if the person closest to it with a good TECHNICAL analyse about why then i make a BONUS of anather 0.25 BTC
so 0.5 total

BUT you guys allready in the RUN for 0.25 BTC                (i just dont know as much of it so nice way to learn about it But buying more and more for over 1.5Y so got a good stash and pay FOR SURE )

My estimation is purely remainder of 2013 ATH what was beaten this year.

This is a good chart,
