What happens if BCH never finds a block again?  They have been stalled for a long fucking time - maybe fewer than 15 blocks have been found in the past 24 hours - something like that.

they use their fave trick.....and fork..............again?

 

More forks than a cutlery draw

They have magical mystery miner to come to the rescue. Unless JU has decided to abandon the whole thing. But I doubt it.

Why not just hodl the BTC in a hardwallet and you can play the trading game with BCH..

^^^--- Exactly. Free Internet Fun-bucks to play with, or hodl, or, whatever.

It's more of a case of if through some magical unicorn comes along and fucks everything up and BCH somehow becomes the one on top then I'd have lost the chance to have 1 (i.e not all my eggs in one basket)
While it's unlikely, there is still the "chance" however rare that might be. The world is utterly fucked as you well know at this moment and it doesn't half make you feel like anything could happen. (Because for the most part the general public are utter morons.)

How is the world more fucked than it was last year? (as opposed to "at this moment")

(Rhetorical - because it isn't - if you were paying attention last year (and quite a few before then) it was already fucked)

(Once again.... rhetorical)

(Sorry back on topic)

(Somewhat agreed on the general public)

Have Xapo and Coinbase and such released their BCH's to users yet? I'm sure there will be a pump before that happens. And a monumental dump when they do.

Gemini and Stamp have not released the BCH on their service, either....

For nearly 2 weeks, Uphold has release the BCH (so it shows up in member accounts), but you cannot do anything with the BCH, yet.

That's a lot of stuck fun bucks.

I was simply making reference to things like:

Trump & more isis attacks recently. But I was just being stereotypical, everybody loves a madman 

Another thing since I missed out on $1k BCH I feel like $600 is just isn't worth selling (incase it hit 1k again) thanks to the mystery miner.

Someone will have to play the hero and start paying higher fees to make it attractive to mine.

If the block reward doesn't cut it, you'll have to make mining attractive through increased fees. But since block space is ample in BCH, nobody has to pay any serious fees and consequently, the fee-incentive just ain't there for the miners. In BTC vs BCH mining race, yesterday, BCH was effectively competing for 12.5 BCH vs 17.5 BTC (because BTC fees were reaching 5+).

In the years to come, takeover attempts like 2x will be completely futile because the block reward will be insignificant compared to fees. The users will effectively decide the miner reward based on transaction fees, since block reward will have been reduced to a lower level of 6 or 3 btc. It won't be possible to enforce any chain that users don't want to use since it will produce no mining revenue from tx fees. No use, no txs, no tx fees, no miner reward except basic block reward (=too little).

This is awkward.

Segway.

Did I miss any free coins between Clams and BCH? I know I missed some Byteballs. Anything else?

Bitcore. Another bitcoin fork. Distribution is based on a snapshot taken in April I think.

Guys, i had 100 bitcoin on polo and made sure, that i didn´t lend out on 01.08. 13:16 UTC, and transfered all to my exchange account before that date, on 31.07.2017.

I got 3.8 BCC credited for my 100 bitcoin !

Turns out, that my lending on Polo went on through that time (history-lending).
So, the persons who lended from me have 96.2 BCC, which is a lot of money, as of now.
I suspect it´s employees of polo, they can´t keep their fingers off of it.

Careful with polo, guys !

UPDATE:
BIP 141 (Segregated Witness) activation is scheduled to take place in: 5 Blocks

 Are you sure you don't have 3.8 Bitcoin because Polo?

[gentlemand]

Over $400,000 on Poloniex? Have you suffered a brain injury recently?

Stellar Lumens, got a couple bucks from that free although price plummeted a little while after distribution. Just transferring the currency was a little bit confusing at first, but I got my tx through in time.

Yeah, its crazy anyway, but its crypto, didn´t really pay half a million for that.
Nobody feels sorry for me  

Back to the case !



Edit:
And thats: fuck polo, left and right. They stole my money, simple as that.
I´ll go so far as to say: the employees of polo are thieves ! Polo would have something to say here.

Didn´t think so !

[leowonderful]

1 block till SW, hold on to your pants! Will be funny if it's Bitmain that mines this last block...
