WHAT THE FORK??!!

[Riddikulo]

Yes, mate, we already know about some of these coming forks. But tell me please where have you found the information about these New Year Bitcoin and Bitcoin Uranium? What for is all this stuff?

[DBerendey]

  Thank you for information, but how to get those free coins? Can anybody tell me? I didn't knew that there will be so many forks..

You need to have Bitcoin first, either in the BTC wallet or some exchanges (double check if the exchange is supporting the new coin and is declaring to distribute the new forked coins)

Can i suggest new fork names? BTCpussy BTCrectum BTCopper BTCtitanium BTCweed BTCpot BTCmeth are the developers wont stop the forks? its obvious that they only want money.

Best place to keep btc to receive btc?


Electrum, binance, bittrex? 

[richan]

I see Bitcoin folk as a replica of ICO of altcoins in the altcoins pool. The Bitcoin folk has come to stay and is  a new way of issuing altcoins as ERC 20 tokens of Ethereum. Let embrace it. We get free coins, people dump it and if developers can walk the talk in their whitepapers, then we the holders of the shit coins will be the next coin billionairs in the future.

[jtipt]

Lol, btc forks are just becoming a new way to create an altcoin with the name 'bitcoin' in it. Developers think the having 'bitcoin' in the coins name will benefit it, and well it does to some extent. Ok, honestly I don't think any of these coins are even going to manage to get forked and even if they do all of them will be in sub hundreds price range.

[josephinerosdy]

holy shitt....
It's ridiculous, too many bitcoin fork I'm tired but It's ok it free quick money.
I think bitcoin fork will hype on 2018, will be more and more fork not just bitcoin

[akirafes]

I have btc but never been in a fork. What is the best close fork?

Almost all the forks are coming from China and it is mostly Chinese exchanges participating.
This blog post lists all the exchanges participating in the SBTC fork.

[jerry0]

Okay so no exchanges like bittrex or binance would offer this?


Would we have btc if we use electrum?

[chocopapaya]

May the Fork Be With You?

Seriously though, that is an insane amount of forks.
Why can't it be more like monero where their forks are never contested and the community agrees to adapt it, that is why the tech behind monero is so impressive, people agree to make it better.

Now, due to btcs almost mystical status, you have people stubbornly sticking with the original code when it clearly needs to be improved.
It's like consensus is impossible, the closest we ever got to it was segwit and that didn't even work out.
I guess we are dealing with a large amount of miners, vs. developers, vs. investors vs. scammers with btc but I would like to see btc scale better.

But back to the point, yeah, with so many forks it looks like it is almost becoming like the next ico trend.
Make a fork, pump the price, profit.

I, personally will stay away from these until bitcoin pizza comes out, then I'm ALL IN!

[m.vina]

So many useless forks. You will end up spending more on transaction fees sending to your personal bitcoin wallet then sending back to an exchange.

Also, please note that "Super Bitcoin" already forked on Dec 12 (according to their website). I also noticed that they want to include smart contracts into bitcoin "AS A WAY TO IMPROVE SCALABILITY." From that statement alone you can already how much of a scam it is. Smart contracts DO NOT help scalability, they add a new feature not at all related to making transaction's faster or have more capacity. Stay away from SCAM coins.

this is starting to look ridiculous and i predicted this day the day they started screaming UASF and said we can fork bitcoin without miner support. and then when bitcoin cash was created with a fork and with little miner support, these shit-forks started being planned.

be very careful
these days there are a lot of scams and people are losing lots of "bitcoin" because they are desperate to receive these airdrops and make mistakes such as giving their private keys to a shady site that lies about letting them claim their tokens.

[Falgorn]

I think that in the appearance of numerous branches of the original bitcoin, the team of its developers is guilty, who for a long time did not improve bitcoin and did not eliminate its visible problems due to which there were several hundreds of simultaneously hanging transactions. To prevent this from happening in the future, we need a healthy competition among bitcoins and its new clones with various improvements. This is the only way to force the bitkoyn to develop and improve. Therefore, I think that the planned fork-bottle plugs will still be more useful than harm.

You hit the spot, people or let say newbies in crypto keeps supporting what they dont understand at all in hoping that they could be rich someday by joining these scam fork coins, you wont get or gain money from supporting newly bitcoin fork scam, they will get money from you.

[cryptamod]

Free money for the developers not for us,it is being mistakenly used by the developers everyweek there are forks here and there,people now dont care much.

[mariangpalad]

Its free money for the developers,we wont have benefits from these useless forks they must be shamed to themselves abusing forks for their own benefits.

[jerry0]

Are those dates even correct?  I read that one of the bitcoin forks already happened?
