Whether it's true or not, 2X should support you as long as you have the courage to challenge it. I appreciate your courage, come on, get rid of the other forks. If you can kill bitcoin, the sky, dare not imagine... Grin

B2x has already returned in value, and at the moment is worth $ 500 so far it is far from dead!

Is it really true?The mentioned website looks like the clone of official bitcoin.org website lol.If they are really doing it at least have and original website.  Roll Eyes

Yup its true , a group under name bitpico is behind this. they claim to control 30% hashing power

https://news.bitcoin.com/bitpico-claims-segwit2x-still-alive-despite-evidence-contrary/

https://www.cryptocoinsnews.com/mysterious-group-bitpico-threatens-to-execute-segwit2x-hard-fork/

i seriously doubt this unknown group control anything more than 5% hashing power to mine bitcoin. and if they try to fork bitcoin (SegWit2x) with that much hashing power (even with 30%) they are doomed to fail because first of all nobody supports SegWit2x anymore at this point so their fork will be an orphaned fork that nobody even wants and probably won't even be listed on any exchanges. it doesn't even have the necessary replay protection.
secondly because of the high difficulty of bitcoin with 5% (or even the fake 30% claim) they won't be able to find enough blocks to create a proper fork.
and not to mention the price of B2X which means they will be throwing away money if they try it at this point.

Weak hands have been complaining about missing out ever since bitcoin was $1 and never buy the dip.
Whales are those who keep buying the dip.

"Critics of Bitpico’s proposal to revive Segwit2X were swift to attribute the group’s motivation to a black hole they may have futures traded themselves into."

Of course some people came up on the loosing side of this event, so it´s no surprise. But I doubt the fork will be successful

Yeah I figured as much because I original believed it was just a suspension of B2X. They're relentless and would love to configure Bitcoin to their liking, but the community is strong and we'll resist once again.

We have decided to continue with the fork as planned. We will not allow the destiny of Bitcoin to be controlled by 6 individuals.

Same date - November 15th.

A lot of people already dumped bitcoin because thay thought that the fork was cancelled. So I guess bitcoin will be pumped again. Altcoins will turn red once more, would be a great time to go shopping for altcoins. I was about to dump all my bitcoins. Good thing I read this thread. Let's just see and wait what would be the final call for segwit2x.

they are not going to do it because there is no time to change things, with the real 1.7% hashrate that this group has they need to implement some emergency difficulty adjustment before they fork and even if they really had 30% and forked with that, it means they will be giving up on about $100,000 per block they find (12.5BTC block reward + 0.5-1BTC fee * 7500) and that is assuming bitcoin price is not going to reach $8000+

oh well , say goodbye to the alt coin rally, if this is true the alts should be all red in no time

the altcoins will soon be in red with or without this fork.

that is what happens when you are talking about a pump and dump altcoins. one day you pump them and the other they get dumped.

Is this a joke? Why would they cancel it in the first place? I really can't understand this drama between segwit2x , if they really wan't to proceed the fork then they should have not cancelled it when they first announce it, they just causing bitcoin to be pump and dump by bag holders and make ALTS bleed.

just to ask... i don't think that if a low percentage of miners will support btc x2 you can say that only 6 individuals control BTC. Can you explain more how can you say something like that?

Not only others who think so, I also think like that, because I have run out of sense to see all that, maybe with me looking at this thread, I changed the decision to sell my Bitcoin and will hold it in some time.

https://coin.dance/poli

it is 56% in past 24 hours, you are looking at it the wrong way: https://coin.dance/blocks

and that is unreliable because most miners does not even run a compatible with 2 MB clients. they just let the world know of their intentions in their coinbase transaction. and also it takes time for most of them to upgrade their servers and remove the NYA from their coinbase to show they no longer support it.

LOL. You are really a positive person. Can B2x survive long enough or will it continue to die? I think, do not try to do anything when you know it's impossible.

That's cute, but why would anyone care about this? The reasons 2x was a threat was due to a majority of miners and most of the major services leaving the legacy BTC chain. Jihan Wu signed the cancellation memo, so we can remove "majority of miners" from the equation. Without the mandate of having the strongest chain, how could they even begin to make the argument that 2x is "Bitcoin?"

That said, it's interesting that Coinbase said they were "monitoring" the situation 12 hours after the announcement came out -- almost as if they have an interest in pushing forward with the fork.

The reality is that the fork will happen because BTC1 nodes are already in the wild, and there are likely also other patched nodes set to fork at Block #494,784. But will anybody notice? That's the only question now....
