BCC stands for Blind Carbon Copy.

They are creating a carbon copy of bitcoin that nobody else can see or use.

Is BCC bitcoin cash? If that's the case it's just a little fork, take the new coins sell them, have more real btc.

a good quote from my quick research :

I'm not entirely sure why, perhaps this makes me a dick for saying this, but I hope Bitcoin Cash fails horribly. Wasn't Satoshi's original vision for bitcoin to have only 1MB for the block size? I'm not saying that he is correct with this stance, but I don't think it is cool that they use Satoshi's name like that to market themselves when it isn't his "original vision" like they say it is.

"We the people will breath new life into bitcoin"?? What is this? Most of us people don't want a fork, right?

Like so many you have been misinformed by those who wish to see bitcoin fail. The reality is the opposite of what you have been told, beware of the intense level of propaganda that prevails.

Satoshi's original design called for blocks to grow. The 1Mb limitation is currently imposed by a small and voiceful faction of the community who call themselves 'Core Developers' who don't want bitcoin to scale so they can implement an additional layer with their own technology on top of bitcoin.

So for all intents and purposes Bitcoin Cash is closest to Satoshi's vision.

Having said that, it doesn't mean the fork is a good idea. There is a community consensus to implement segwit on Aug 1st and then increase block sizes in November and this is what should be followed.

10mb and it's done.

Someone dumped 1000 BTC on Bitfinex which caught a few people in a long trap.

I've bought some of those and I feel lucky, not trapped.

Well hello Bitcoinland. I won't say good morning because it's still the middle of the night for me.

Woke up to use the can, saw the price, threw on some clothes, ran up the street and started feeding cash into the ATM there.

Got in just under $2550USD. Only bought a single coin for now but at least it was a whole coin. Still have cash to buy a few more.

I was cursing the banks last week for taking too long to clear my cheque and missing the great buying opportunity but I guess this will have to do for now. Let's see which way it goes now.

Time for me to go back to bed. See you at noon.

Not really, no.

Classic Jimbo buying the dip! Love that Jimbo.

above 20% decline few longs will be forced to close... below would it be to ignorant to aim for a triple digit short cover?

segwit sucks.

sleep well...

Not really, no.

as I said, then 100mb once the 10mb blocks are 80% full...  I agree with you... and volume will compensate for lower fees.

What software was the reorg on? https://www.btcforkmonitor.info/

[savetherainforest]

[...] a 2mb hardfork seems pretty unlikely to take place in the coming couple of years [...]

Really? No.

2mb is feasible, but still a hard bargain / trade-off. It is just an easy lazy solution! ... They should wake the f*ck up and put their hands on a shovel and create new better fiber optics infrastructure at a global scale.

I agree with this post.

with segwit you add another layer of potential problems. when a simple modification to a 10mb block would have solved the issue temporary before raising to 100mb.

So why shall I have confidence in adding another layer to bitcoin? I am better using pivx for example where there will no problem or question about scaling the block size once the transaction capacity is reached (actually 70tps)...

it's pathetic. How do you plan to make money with segwit? Is there a way to host a second layer node and make some sats?

+1
Some people here get it - Yes it is far better to (free) scale on-chain, say 8MB or 10MB and let it work for some years. This is Satoshi.

How much years this would give us ?  about 3-5 or more  ?

On the other side you give Moores law a chance (also in Satoshi's vision), and let it work for us - next level technology = free.

Far far better mates!

SW is clearly over-engineering and keeps lots of defs away and the HF Monster needs to play the FUD role.

SW allows better 2nd layer engineering - but in terms of energy and resources this is just wasted and dilutes bitcoins absolutely strongest Satoshi security.

Btw how to profit from segwit? setup a node a get some fees? that simple?

That will be the Lightning Network. You'll have to have bitcoins to feed the channel.

I don't think I'm winning micro's ATH game.

I like your enthusiasm and where this is going!!! ... ROFL!!!    



*edit: FYI ... just the last 4 names on that list have a chance of winning!


*edit(2):  explanation is required... So.. :  "There is always a time loop!"    ... Basically a new ATH will be after the ATH ... and if 2 people guessed the ATH because it grew in 2 consecutive days... Who has the right answer?? They both have the right answer!

Bad day to try new trading strategy 

I'm just there looking at my 2653 long order, have absolutely no idea what to do with it °°

After margin call, take the remaining 40% and convert to physical silver immediately then wait for $10,000 gold revaluation and 15:1 silver peg ($600).  The world's 2nd most criminal bank JP Morgan is acting as an agent of the US govt to naked short the paper market while taking delivery of physical.

Do not go longterm gold ROach (10-20 years), when the age of space mining starts gold and some other precious metals will be worthless.

I dont tell this to trash you, this is just a tip. You rather want to go longterm Bitcoin.

Space mining, lol, on what timeline do you see that happen?

So it's really a scam. I feed the chanel btc (what's the minimum to hold to have a node) and get a fee in return. What's the expected ROI?

I really wish Roger Ver would kill himself.

He already did. He character-assassinated himself, losing all credibility.

No. I mean, 6 feet under. No biological function. Cold to the touch.

That's not very nice. All he needs is a few months of intense breastfeeding and he'll be right as rain again. Let's send him to an isle of wet nurses and welcome him back at the appropriate time.

ANALYSIS: WHY AUGUST 3rd?
(micgoossens's prediction game)

(SNIP)
TL;DR.
Fear of Aug 1st dissipates slowly while the wounded lick their wounds. New week, new life starting on Friday Thursday.

Sounds Good 
Let see to 3th of August

Glad you like it 

and still feeling lucky with the small dip
