Anyone can exlain what is going on ? It's a funny thing Bitfinex has created to cash on the Bitcoin vs Buttcoin debate. Now people can place their bets even BEFORE a hardfork happens. If it does, those tokens will be exchanged for the corresponding coins on each fork (BCC for Bitcoin and BCU for Buttcoin). Funny and interesting to watch. |

So anyone care to explain why this whole BU fork FUD just happens to come up immediately after the ETF disapproval? Hmmm? You guys are getting played. The pumpers ALWAYS come up with a reason to DUMP following an ATH. If they can't exploit a hole, hack an exchange, or DDoS the shit out of one, they'll find another way. The new way is pretty simple: social engineering based on emotion. Make something trivial about Bitcoin into a big deal, create troll/shill accounts to divide the community, push $$$ towards alts and tout them as 'Bitcoin 2.0', and get everyone whipped up in a frenzy. And short-dump on the way down. Apparently, 90% of the time it's gonna work every time. Because bitcoiners are a bunch of overgrown whiny babies that can be easily manipulated.  Yet you didn't see it coming. Hmmmm? Maybe it was because you have been expecting a bounce since $1125? What exactly puts you above the overgrown whiny babies? Get ready for dat bounce
Now stop misleading newcomers before, god forbid, you make someone buy all the way down to $400 on your advice instead of waiting for a medium-term bottom. |

i don't understand how any of it works either. so you're burning existing coins to get in? do you get BTC coins back if nothing happens? |

Anyone can exlain what is going on ? Nothing special really. They'll do everything for money. A bankrupted exchange is offering tools for manipulation and social engineering to whoever is willing to pay most. |

March 18, 2017 Today, Bitfinex proudly introduces trading on Chain Split Tokens (CST). The first such product of its kind, CSTs will allow Bitfinex customers to speculate on future fork events of the Bitcoin blockchain, specifically, the potential fork between Bitcoin Core and Bitcoin Unlimited. We are designating these CSTs as BCC (Bitcoin Core) and BCU (Bitcoin Unlimited).
CSTs will trade as BTC and USD pairs, initially without margin, and as will any other product with list, we will reevaluate that decision if there is sufficient liquidity.
Users will be able to create CSTs by “splitting” a bitcoin through the Token Manager (located in the Order Type drop down menu of the sidebar order ticket). Once split, the BTC will be removed from your account for each BCC and BCU added. Through the same Token Manager, you will be able to reverse this process at anytime, trading in equal numbers of BCC and BCU to extract BTC.
If no fork occurs by December 31, 2017, then BCU will expire worthless and BTC will be given in exchange for each BCC holder. If, however, there is a fork, specifically Bitcoin Unlimited, then, as soon as we list Bitcoin Unlimited, we will exchange BCU tokens for Bitcoin Unlimited tokens as well as retiring BCC tokens in favor of Bitcoin Core tokens. More detailed information can be found in the Chains Split Token Terms and Conditions.
We are planning a few additional enhancements including a realtime display of total CSTs as well as segregated cold storage for the bitcoins that have been split, which we will periodically settle to and from our hot wallet. |

i don't understand how any of it works either. so you're burning existing coins to get in? do you get BTC coins back if nothing happens? Easy, an example: You take one real BTC and you place your bet: You can either buy (at present rate) 1.2 BCC or 5 BCU (aprox), or a combination of both. Then, if the hardfork happens, before 31 dec 2017, your BCC or BCU's will be trade for real Bitcoins or Buttcoins. In the meantime, you can always exchange your BCC or BCU's for real Bitcoins at whatever the rate is at that moment. It's similar to what Josh Jones did with bitcoinbuilder with GOX coins. |

This event was foreseeable from a mile away. Me + Adam were both bearish while MatTheCat was bullish. There has never been a better indicator of where the market is headed than that. This market is trading like the DOW right now, artificially levitated.
Price has absolutely no short term upside at all
I'm out again at $1168 (no idea why the price is that high right now) and will let this market marinate.

Been a long downward trend recently but looks like that will now be reversed. Still HODLing as usual  |

Whats the problem with that? My 28.8 was awesome compared to my 14.4. You're not going to have rapid VISA scale transactions on a blockchain. Bitcoin works as it is... not necessarily for buying coffee... but in terms of 'adoption' it has a much wider circulation than any alt coin and can shift large chunks of money around relatively quickly. |
