No Bitcoin is the real chain.

One is BITCOIN
One is Bitcoin Cash (a new altcoin, not the REAL BTC)

The Forks that Survives is the Real Bitcoin , and the survivor will be Bitcoin Cash.

Plus on segwitcoin , if everything goes to G.Maxwell's plan, you will only use LN ,
You won't be able to afford Onchain transactions, Offchain transactions are not bitcoin , only Onchain.

To simplify things, they are all going to exist, however, there might be major n minor chain of bitcoin. With miners hopping between chain, its fluctuations like crazy. There is no unity.

I really think it will start a new wave of coins that are built to challenge the chain leaders. Look for a Scrypt coin to overtake LTC, or an X11 to take over Dash. We already see a lot of chain jumping among miners on those algos, and once they get smart and implement an EDA similar to BCH they will grow.

LOL, that happened a long time ago during the altcoin explosion.  2013/2014 was probably the peak.  Dogecoin came out and challenged LTC.  Darkcoin came out with X11 and then there were a million copycats.  There were pools switching back and forth from Doge to LTC to other Scrypt coins from block to block.  This time saw a lot of innovation in difficulty setting algorithms, culminating in the "Gravity Well" that ended up in Dark because Dark (now Dash) kept getting screwed over by hashrate entering and leaving the coin depending on what was trading up that day. 

When it first came out, Doge actually had a "random" coinbase payout (mining reward).  I think it was something like anywhere between 0 DOGE and 1,000,000 DOGE per block.  But the thing is, the reward was determined by the hash of the previous block.  One Scrypt multipool figured this out and only mined the high payout DOGE blocks, and mined LTC the rest of the time.  So they ended up with a lot of the high reward DOGE blocks, while dedicated DOGE pools ended up with the crappy ones.  After this was found out, the DOGE developers switched to a fixed mining reward.

I believe similar things happened even before Scrypt mining became popular among alts.... reportedly Namecoin and BTC fought over SHA256 hashrate for a while, before merged mining was figured out.  (It's a shame that more miners don't merge-mine Namecoin.... it doesn't add any difficulty or time, and it can provide a little bonus for the miners.)

So all of this has been seen before, but obviously not with the stakes as high as they are now.

It is going to take me months to slowly offload my B cash. Lack of liquidity is the major reason. Selling all of it as that project has no future. Using Changely and Shapeshift as well to protect my privacy. Bit of a pain but worth it to avoid KYC exit.

Lack of liquidity?
It's $1M (USDT) + 2k BTC every day on Bittrex alone.
Then there's also ETH market + many more exchanges.

Is there somewhere I can contribute my ethereum to? Or does this not even have an ICO yet?

[ikifenix]

I like this idea, especially compared to all the crap ICOs coming out lately.

 Will be following this one closely. I wish this site had a follow button or something

@tomcat it's hard to believe a Senior member here wouldn't understand spam? Read up on the history of email spam and I think you'll begin to understand the issue.

I'll repeat - I strongly believe that people can do what they want with their money.
If anyone wants to play with thousands of small transactions for whatever reason, then let it be that way.
If you want to throw your pennies to The Trevi, or just burn a case full of money, then I don't see a problem - it is your money.
My point is: let people do what is allowed in the system.
The only limit I'd think of would be to not allow zero-fee transactions by default, but anything above zero is legitimate because it's paid.

Hi can OP add BlockTrail bitcoin cash developer platform please: https://blocktrail.com/API


thank you

Are you guys still holding Bitcoin Cash? I sold it as soon as I could but that was a bad idea, because the price went up after that. But on the long run, I think BCC will wall to 100 usd or so.

Holding both Cash and Core until November at minimum.
Then going to see the outcome of S2X and decide what to do.

Got rid of cash but will hold 2x to see how it plays out then will probably sell 2x too if it has value it all depends on what support it gets but my money is still behind core

The new King of cryptocurrency? 
Less than a month ago, a few new lines of code and a verbal agreement forked the Bitcoin blockchain, creating a newer, more nimble version called Bitcoin Cash. Since its arrival on Aug. 1, the infant cryptocurrency has more than doubled in value from $300 to a price north of $600, and investors are now wondering if its popularity poses a serious threat to the Bitcoin throne.
Market cap: 10.8 billion $
Price rate: 607$

Many of us have still many BCH to dump. Those liquidity numbers only reflect speculators trading back and forth. It doesn't take much to send the price of BCH down, believe me I have been seeing this everyday first hand.

OK, but you quoted me without your previous post which was about taking you months to offload your coins

So, unless you have tens of millions worth of BCH, I think you could easily use existing demand to sell your coins on various markets, no...?

This says it better. No one wants to trade Bitcoin Cash. All we have is a couple of miners and enthusiasts.
Where is the huge support of the coin? Poor little bcash with tiny blocks

woa...a few sells of segwitcoin just went through @ $4610

Time to grab more of them Bitcoin cash

Dont like holding fiat lol
I think buying from 0.12 is a gd idea, if it drops into 0.11s , grab more  
(its near 50% drop from last high so gd time to start getting in imo)

I know you are all rich here but I bought 5 BCH at $600!!! I'm getting destroyed!!! Don't know what to do!!!

This is why your struggling lol...relax and ask yourself ,
why do you buy coins?
 to hodl or make a quick buck?

if you dont know what to do, holding is safer but after researching and buying.
if its to make a quick buck...its not that easy m8

Also its $565ish now, so you down $35 x 5 = $175 down on $3000...
if thats being destroyed then i dont know what to say lol

[cri79pop]

I bought 15 when was 750. So relax. Bch worth more. Just be patience.
