There is always Bitcoin Gold. The 12:th or thereabout I think.

[chopstick]

So now Bitcoin is stuck with 1mb forever.

The Lies and Censorship crew have won.

Meanwhile, Lightning Network is at-least "18 months" away from being deployed.

Are you guys ready for $100+ fees?

This is the "settlement layer" you wanted. Forget Satoshi's Bitcoin, now BTC is a store of value only coin. Who cares about commerce or competing with banks or actually trying to change the world, right?

Do you mean the toaster they are running it on?

[600watt]

I decided a couple days ago to trade a bit (fiat/BTC, from dumping my BCH) considering the high volatility. I had set up sell orders at 6550€, 6600€, 6650€, they were blown through in a matter of minutes.

And of course now I can't connect to Kraken to set up buy orders...

imho even mtgox worked better than kraken. I logged in on three different days trying to sell bcash but not a single order went through. I tried for hours each time. it is a complete shit show.

I only ended up with funds on kraken because I wanted to sell bcash. now I cannot withdraw due to limits. and I cannot even trade due to fucked up trading engine.

[kurious]

They quit?  Amazing.

Am actually relieved.

Because non of the other 1000 or so coins can do that. Only Bitcoin can save the world.

[FractalUniverse]

looks like we may be heading for deeper correction now.
its too early to tell, but many people increased BTC holding just for the fork and "free" b2x.

lets see what will happen, but its a bit overbought anyway.

Why forever? Who is saying that?

Hopefully now a permanent solution can be developed and tested over the next year or two to allow for growth in the block size over time. I've always thought the block size should adjust with the difficulty. Maybe a consensus will develop for such a change.

Segwit 2x guys just threw in the towel - bullish as fuck?

...
Our goal has always been a smooth upgrade for Bitcoin.  Although we
strongly believe in the need for a larger blocksize, there is something we
believe is even more important: keeping the community together.
Unfortunately, it is clear that we have not built sufficient consensus for
a clean blocksize upgrade at this time. Continuing on the current path
could divide the community and be a setback to Bitcoin’s growth. This was
never the goal of Segwit2x.

Mike Belshe, Wences Casares, Jihan Wu, Jeff Garzik, Peter Smith and Erik
Voorhees

Chinese mining cartel overlord Jihan Wu agrees to CANCEL the agreement. 2x is over and out.

The users won!

Just wait to sink this in for a few days into the market.....i'm getting extremely bullish!

[Torque]

They quit?  Amazing.

Am actually relieved.

By "they" you mean the one guy behind it, Jeff Garzik?

Yeah, he quit.  

[Karartma1]

I wonder where is the old good Barry: why didn't he sign the suspension? Jihan has Bitcoin Cash anyway, probably this was his plan anyway. Now that he accepts BCH for the miners it gets interesting.

One battle has been won but the war is not over.

In the meanwhile GO BITCOIN GO!

Bitcoin could have saved the world, but it got taken over by the Bankers and now has Retarded itself to a max. 6 transactions per second. Visa, and Mastercard are laughing their asses off at RetardCoin while simultaneously breathing a sigh of relief that a major threat to their existence, Bitcoin, has been removed.

Now it's all up to Bitcoin Cash.

Anyone who thinks that this is a good thing have seriously deluded themselves and are fools for believing the Blockstream propaganda, lies and FUD.

[eXpl0sive]

Now whoever wanted Bitcoin SegWit2x is stuck with only this one:

Yeah, he quit. 

we need some conspiracy :
Goldman predicted 7900 and drop. now fork cancelled, GS prediction was +- hit, and its falling. Nice coincidence.

Would rather seem like the market is disagreeing with your morose opinion.
