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

Has the split started? I am ready to dump all my free BCC for BTC. Free money for all. Free ARDOR, Free ETC and now Free BCC. Crypto is damn a greedy land 

[lupanar]

So split will be or not at last

So split will be or not at last

That kind of split isn't happening anymore of which everyone was afraid. This has no significance anymore as this is just a hard fork to create a new altcoin on old Bitcoin's protocol just like few others. Why I say old Bitcoin because after Segwit's activation a new upgraded version of software will be ready which will be more advanced and best.

If split happens, we decided to accept BCC for our double-coin pre-ICO at http://edutainment.tech/smart-games and http://edutainment.tech/corp-edu. Why not to support interesting idea? BCC may have a future in crypto ecosystem, though still a bit risky.

So split of BTC at 2 chains will not be happen and BCC, or wherever it calls, will be born after 5hrs and it is just some king of side effect of BTC split cancellation? Im I understood correct?

You can use Electron Cash(fork of Electrum): https://medium.com/@electroncash/electron-cash-wallet-341xxxxxxxxx

Has anyone actually reviewed the code changes to that wallet?

the author of electrum reviewed the code changes and he seems pretty skeptical, IMO it is likely a scam to steal seed for BTC wallets

imo a lot of people going to lose their BTC trying to cash in their bitcoin cash --- we'll be reading the sad stories soon enough, gonna be a bunch

I agree. BCC will be a very huge scam. I wonders how many BTC private keys the hackers will stole.

Took the words right out of my mouth

You have to think is it really worth the risk when it involves things still usable on the main Bitcoin blockchain.

Take this e.g:

You claim Bitcoin Cash with your Bitcoin private key, every single Bitcoin Cash client has a backdoor ftp which sends your private keys to the host/s, then they can move your bitcoin to other addresses with the import private key function on the main Bitcoin chain as long as you still hold a balance.

*This is just an example of what "could" potentially happen, it doesn't mean it will.

What is scam from your point of view and how they will stole private keys of others. It's open source project and just fork of a bitcoin and nothing more than if anyone don't have sense how to make secure his private keys than you can't blame to this private.

It is not recommended at all to do any action until you see enough updates about the stability of network. Once you see Bitcoin and BCC(BCH) are working fine separately. Move your Bitcoins to new wallet to make sure you are not going have troubles. Using your private keys from Elecetrum wallet in newly forked chain of BCC you will have same quantity of coins at 1:1.

the seed for BCC is the same seed for BTC, reveal that seed to claim your BCC and you may lose your BTC too

here's some good info on how to protect yourself and why Electron Cash could be a scam(from the developer of electrum):

So to be on the safe side, we should move BTC out of wallet first then claim BCC with Priv Key.

Yobit already distributed BCC tokens. Many have already sold them and have a second chance to get on another exchange.

That makes no sense to me. Yobit must have somehow locked the btc or prevent withdrawals, otherwise they'll end up insolvent.

well, wrong, only way they to end up insolvent is to screw up with splitting coins, if bch will never exist buyers will get exactly what it worth - an eight decimal zero - 0.00000000. yobit just had cashed out their trade fee earlier.

They can do what they want with my private key I could even post it here publicly (im not) because I will have already transferred all my BTC to a new wallet before I even consider importing it to any BCC compatible wallet and draining its funds after that the wallet will be dead to me

This one is interesting: https://twitter.com/ElectrumWallet/status/891935330235973633. Thanks for confirming my suspicion.

I am not even confident in the replay protection of Bitcoin Cash, let alone any singular wallet implementation. I am almost certain that a lot of people will lose money trying to dump BCH.

A super majority of people will not do that before interacting with BCH. Do you really expect the average user to know the best way to proceed? Most of them know nothing besides the part "import your private key into a BCH wallet to use and dump it".
