Too many bitcoin coins. We all will go crazy one day. ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) I would take a friendly fork over all the trash ICOs any day and a hostile fork like BCH Bitcoin cash would have had a much more friendly welcome to the cryptospace if they chose to use a different PoW algorithm and possibly a higher value too Imagine bitcoin cash using say the equihash PoW at the current value it would be one of the most profitable coins to mine and could of taken a huge chunk of the ether mining power especially with it going PoS

which tells us everything about the motivations of bcash's creators. as it's always been, it's yet another bitcoin power grab albeit from a different and more destructive angle.

it's a great arbiter of the market's appetite though. as time goes on the attitude to hostile forks will harden. 2x ain't looking any friendlier than this despite the names tenuously attached to it. the lack of replay is the first insult. there'll be plenty more to come. i reckon 2x will be dead by november and bcash will have helped in that.

I don't expect 2x to be any kind of threat it was a compromise for the big blockers but they now have this so support should be low to non existent if anything 2x is more a threat to BCH

even if it its problems are sorted and it functions well, all bcash will achieve is hammer home to the big blockers that there can be only one bitcoin. 2x'll be their next chance, but the launch of bcash has exposed them as disruptive assholes and increased opposition to 2x. the only people who'll support it will be the signatories versus virtually everyone else. they're big players but they're not the community or the market. personally i would've been happy with 2x had some real developers been courted and consulted and realistic timeline created.

What makes one hostile takeover palatable and another not(do we subscribe that BCC is the hostile takeover, or as result of the rejection of the takeover at play via core), very selective and twisted defining of "hostile takeover" at use in this thread.

i think core are passive aggressive pricks who have stifled bitcoin. i also think they are very competent which is how they've managed to stay at the wheel for so long. if someone really wants to take over bitcoin's direction all they have to do is come up with better concepts executed in a prudent manner. nothing the big blockers have come up with fits those criteria. they have the money but not the skills or the will.

A friendly fork is one that does not compete in the same space like this one is posed to be http://btcgpu.orgWill be interesting to see what kind of support it gets though

From each other's perspective the other has indeed "taken over" so we see on the merit of the product. I just shot $100 across the bow for super cheap, guess which coin I didn't use.

at this particular moment i'd like to see everyone get schooled, even though it's impossible. all factions need reminding that their way or the highway is screwing everyone. what i really wish is that satoshi had left after having laid the foundations for scaling.

I struggle to see how core can keep miners on their chain after x2, but they've surprised me before.
That being said, I'm stocking up BCH in anticipation for that moment. Bought most @ 0.061 so not too worried about holding bags...

Nonsense. If that would have been Bitcoin Cash's direction, it would have been every bit as irrelevant as BitcoinGPU. A backwater crapcoin consigned at best to be someone's pump and dump bitch. The approach Bitcoin Cash took launched it as the third-largest crypto. A golden baby that is likely heir to Satoshi's throne.

If the user's decide 2x to be worthless then the miners will not mine it you have already witnessed that half will support whichever is most profitable as evident by the wild BCH difficulty swings

The approach Bitcoin Cash took launched it as the third-largest crypto. A golden baby that is likely heir to Satoshi's throne. BitcoinGPU is a fork the same as cash if it managed a value of $600 then it would instantly have a market cap greater than BCH due to all the existing coins already in the market Whether it can survive or just be another pump and dump is to be seen but even though it's using a different PoW algorithm it's still keeping very close to core and forking from the chain from the same block as BCH I believe if so whatever BTC you had then you will get the same BTCGPU this should instantly give it some value now it it can keep any value is to be seen I don't know anything about this project it's just a good example of how a fork should happen

Buy ![Wink](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/wink.gif) Buy here there are 2 possibilities between profit and loss, because the price is now at a confusing level, but all return to the respective decision alone.

Typical. Soon as I get around to selling some BCH the price drops through the floor. Looks like it may have just bottomed out though now.
