[ANN] Bitcoin Cash - Pro on-chain scaling - Cheaper fees

[vingaard]

And I say... what it the problem to keep calm and hold your BTC in your wallet without doing anything... I mean... If BCC can't reach BTC I still have my BTC and also whatever worth on BCC...

On the other hand if BCC become popular and reach high value and BTC also continues high then I have my BTC and the same amount of BCC...

...or if BTC dump and BCC pump... I have the same than before... so...

why people is selling like crazy?

Please... if someone could explain me what is the problem to keep calm and wait without doing anything I would be very grateful

there's no point in thinking, doing or believing anything until it's on an open market. right now the exchange operators could be doing anything with it.

That's true... but what I mean is after 1st August...

Will the electrumcash wallet interact with my Trezor? Hope so, that would make getting my coins easy as pie ABC.

There is no airdrop as such .... Brain-Deads are trading @viabtc

As I understand it isn't an airdrop it's a FORK and It will occur 1st August

[bones261]

Is this going to eventually be merge minable...?

how they can trade? Coins not exist yet or? If yes how can I access my BCC coins?

If you sons of bitches don't want to destroy Bitcoin from it's roots and fundamentals then why don't you create a new chain from zero and give the ability to any Bitcoin holder to claim exactly the same amount of Bitcash then lets see if you stand a facking chance?
If you truly wanted Bitcoin to remain one chain always and forever, you'd be taking your miners offline slowly and turning them back on your coin's chain.
Forcefully creating a total double spend of the entire blockchain up to the point of fork is what any enemy of Bitcoin would do.

You know this already that your coin has another name than BTC, you are giving it a name yourselves, so what is the reason for not creating a brand new coin and make the double spending manual by each user having to claim them.
You have most of the Bitcoins yourselves and now your sluts want some bigger sticks, only way to fatten your sluts is by doubling your 55% stashed Bitcoins?

And how'd we know you wouldn't keep stalling the main chain causing more troubles as before when you forked and immediately deployed your currently offline farms mining the new coin and then secretly bring back your hash power into the main chain? what would that take maybe $500-$700M?
I believe you already cashed out twice that amount in the last month.

I have been a gullible mute bystanders so far but looks like you were itching to be exposed, you know which parts of my theory is reality and are facts.
And suddenly ViaBTC became an exchange just like I grew another pair of balls in the last 48 hours? you guys are more than just simple faggots, cunts are taking us for fools.

I love this project, this is what bitcoin is supposed to be all about: the community. !!!

This is not about the community. It's all about the miners. The community dont support the raise of the blocksize. It is not healthy for the decentralization

Yes it does at least in part, stop speaking in the name of the bitcoin community, you don't represent it.

Will BitcoinCash definitely make banks obsolete?  

[BitUsher]

I suggest you stay away from futures as they are very risky , and stay away from viabtc as they have voiced they will freeze funds within the account unlike other exchanges. Wait till after the split occurs and use bitsquare to dump your split coins-

Bitsquare will list BMC/BTC trading pairs with no restrictions or freezes. They will call this Alt BitMainCoin (BMC) to avoid confusion as BCC is already taken

https://twitter.com/bitsquare_/status/888871094081507328

Exchanges cannot use BCC as it is already taken -

Some other names ?
  
Bitmaincoin (BMC)

ASICBOOSTCOIN (ABC)

Is this going to eventually be merge minable...?

Wont be merge mined .

Bitcoin.com , antpool, and viabtc will donate a % of their hashrate to this alt. Presumably since Bitmain controls so much hashrate directly and indirectly via selling 70% of ASICs they are confident this alt wont be attacked even if it has less than 10% of network hashrate %

Basically this coin places a lot of faith in Bitmain who looks like where the dev costs are being funded through as well

Do you really think those pools will waste theirs hashrate with this shitcoin? People dont like to waste money.

[BitUsher]

Yes, I think they will donate a % , up to half their hashrate to at least temporarily mine Asicboostcoin. (5-15% total network hashrate) Why?

1) There is a small , but vocal group of users that will buy these coins . Since difficulty will be dropped it will be profitable for them to hash on these coins at least temporarily to target that crowd.

2) After segwit activates , Bitmains covert use of ASicboost will be largely neutralized due to the fact that they won't be able to collect as much fees as other miners who do not use Asicboost. This 15-30% advantage makes mining Asicboostcoin more profitable for them.

I expect a volatile start and than capitulation for this alt as "big blockers" are a fickle lot who tend to invest in all sorts of alts and ICO scams so don't have the same commitment like maximalists

Excellent!  I applaud all those involved with BitcoinCash for this respectful approach.  I also very much intend to support BCC, split my bitcoins carefully, and look for opportunities to trade between the two branches.

I'm nervous that this is being done so hastily but I understand the importance of splitting before SegWit activates and hope that you can quickly develop a sensible roadmap and grow from there.  Is there enough synergy with Bitcoin Unlimited for this to become a joint effort?

I dont think any respectful exchange will add this altcoin

I'm sure many exchanges will add support for both branches.  It could be very profitable and I would certainly appreciate vitriol giving way to volume.

You know this already that your coin has another name than BTC, you are giving it a name yourselves,

Two different branches should have two different names.  Both branches have a good claim to the name "Bitcoin".  The fact that this camp is giving way on this demonstrates their maturity and their belief in the fundamentals of their branch.  BCC will undoubtedly suffer in the marketplace at the beginning because so much money will trade on the name, but if they are right and stay true to their vision then BCC could easily grow to serve the needs of millions of people around the world.

How does the difficulty algo work exactly? Did they change the difficulty retarget times from 2016 to a smaller number?

[BitUsher]

no , still 2016 block retarget, but they drop difficulty down substantially so 5-15% network hashrate can handle their alt within 10 min avgs out of the gate

It won't have tx malleability fix, so no cool features like Lightning network on this alt anytime soon(if ever because Jihan opposes fixing malleability), thus this alt will start off with up to  56 transactions per second and BTc will support millions of transactions per second with wallets like this -

Please don't support cloud mining(most are scams and those that aren't harm the security of the coin) or investing in "futures" (tokens that don't even exist or may never) or support exchanges that freeze clients assets instead of allowing them to withdraw.

Also please stop using that ticker as it is confusing others due to an altcoin already using it with a 400 million dollar market cap . WTF was VIABTC thinking?

If you want to trade this alt wait till more legit exchanges like bitfinix, bitsquare or polo list it without any restrictions.
