Anyone have a solution?

Fill your glass with ice, pop in the mint and chopped fruit, pour in the Pimm's, top with lemonade and stir.
To make up a pitcher use the same method, this time with a handful each of the chopped fruit, cucumber and mint leaves

Despite the FUD going on before the fork date, its unbelievable that the value of Bitcoin cash keep rising.
Bitcoin Cash (BCH)
$668.27 (130.65%)
0.24360100 BTC (129.37%)

If I had my bitcoin on electrum wallet before fork, do I need to send them to a new electrum wallet or can I send them straight to exchange and still claim BCC?

If you had, you would have sold at 200$ ..

BTC hashrate is down from  6.6 Mio Thash (is this 6,6 Exa ?) yesterday

to

Network total   5 548 159 Thash/s

today....

Miners switching over already?

BCC price driven up because of attracting more miners over there ?

Well, the marked needs some basis for fake confidence. Cuz if they decide they can change sides very quickly. But given the optimism, it is just an act of 'consolidation' / 'assurance' or a fake feeling of security!

HitBTC accept BCC deposits now. Currently at 0.19 btc

[MelMan2002]

Bittrex and yobit both over $1k for bcc(bch)

This will be played many times. Chinese mining cartel will change sides to push BCH exchange rate in different directions fore running market. People know that and effect will be minimal and actually the opposite mainly because many will attempt to fore run the forerunners.

all of you who are frustratedly waiting to get your BCH deposited are lucky. I took the risk of keeping my Bitcoin on Kraken and Coinfloor, so was able to dump very happily at 0.07. FFS, really kicking myself now!

Trust me, you could have done much worse.  Like, not getting any BCH coins because you f@cked up completely out of some sort of confused negligence....

BCC is going to same value as BTC? BCC = BTC value soon ?

BCH could go x10 or x100 up. No limit there. At the moment you're allowed only to buy. You can't sell. But price will fall off a cliff once exchanges assign BCH addresses to their customer accounts.

What joke is this ?

 Maybe I missed something in this discussion but I sold some of my BCH already.  What is hard to do is move BCH to an exchange due to the very slow block generation time and the requirement of a considerably higher number of block confirmations than for Bitcoin by the exchanges.

It looks like it could I think speculative juices are fueling this one now, money seems to be flowing from alts to bcc.

It could keep rising until those bccs stuck in desktop wallets manage to reach exchanges.

indeed. That said, getting very tempted to buy some BCH now.

Anybody here have any good indications of how long it might be until deposits start getting accepted in the major exchanges?

Probably when blocks aren't coming in only every few hours. My guess is they are waiting for block time to go down before they start accepting deposits.

As for price, price could easily be pumped to the point of BTC=BCH with deposits extremely limited. The only issue is this will likely be short lived as price will probably drop once deposits are initiated on big exchanges. I was also one of the guys who dumped at .07; it's still free money no matter which way you look at it, eh?

Good idea on the buying of BCH, buy high, sell low! Or actually it sounds like you want to sell low, buy high, sell low/HODL!

You know that people can't move their coins to exchanges to sell, so there is a buying pressure. You know that this is temporary. Why do you want to buy now?

[fluidjax]

As the hash rate has dropped dramatically on BCC so they can get the difficulty re-calc triggered, it makes mining a malicious private chain much easier.
For example, mine 20 blocks with empty transactions privately, a little bit faster than the real BCC chain,  and then release it and wipeout everything that happened for the last few hours or days.
I have no idea if it is happening but it is a risk, if I was an exchange I'd be wanting 100 confirmations (like some altcoins), and if I had sold BCH on an exchange I be getting my BTC off it quick.
I know this sounds like FUD, but I'm just making everyone aware of of the risk, take care, who knows how exchanges would deal with it.

[ulfsaar]

I honestly believe nobody wants bcc. These guys want btc and buying bcc is just to add some more btc on stash when sold at profit.
