It looks to be back on ! Is this correct or just false news. I would have thought the cypto community would have known about this well before Christmas.

I also heard this news, I don't also know if it is true, because how many hard fork today don't continue it. I don't know why but I just need to get ready for that day. We need to get ready for this.

[Um X]

At the moment of fork all BTC holders will get B2X at the ratio 1BTC=1B2X. Smart Contracts. Anonymous. Security. Block Size Limit 4 MB.

[A1exander]

Well, at least this time the developers are going to implement replay protection.

maybe this news is true, i also got information about segwit2x from some sites and see many tweet that discuss segwit2x

[Chris314]

Yes I also heard of news about segwitx2 fork coming this December, 28th.

[Anti-Cen]

Yes I did look into this fork and we have much propaganda flying around about it
as if someone very big does not want it to happen but it does seem to be going ahead

It will trade as B2X and the price was about $1000 the last time that i looked and if
the coins are free and work nice and fast then what have we got to loose

My post about Lightning seemed to vanish at lightning speed
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2648868.0
I don't think Lightning network is going to save anyone and I am not alone with
my concerns so anything for now that takes a load of BTC is doing all the alt-coins
a service and might give them some breathing space to come up with a better plan 

[ldah94]

I have also heard these rumors, apparently they want to increase the blocks to improve transactions. Maybe this news is one of the causes that Bitcoin is taking back its price.

PS: it coincides with the day of my birthday, so I hope it is a good birthday gift and allow bitcoin to increase even more.

So this is the time we get ready for another sucker punch! I think this time people want convert their BTC to fiat at all the way they did in last segwit stuff. They will enjoy the reward rather than watch others enjoying it! Um, but lets hope this time it actually changes everything in the BTC, the transaction speed, confirmation timing and the most important fees that they are taking. These are the problems they must cover up and give out something bright for us.

[error08]

I'm surprised, don't know what bitcoin core would says about this hardfork, as it's maybe impossible if cores don't approve it.
It may be a fud news if there is no official statement from core developers.
Look at this: This is a sponsored press release and does not necessarily reflect the opinions or views held by any employees of The Merkle.
Someone or some people have paid The Merkle to release this article, which mean can't be trusted.

Hi friend and don't go running off again because I had to hold the fort for you in recent days and
it would be better coming from you yourself.

How many members from the old Segwit team are in the new Segwit2x team ?

Seems like many people people "Bankers" are doing all they can to hide whats going on
with this new fork and propaganda seems to be flying around like mad so can you please
try to convince people that it's not just a copy of the old block-chain with a tweak to the code
because anyone can do that to hijack what we already have.

Is this legit? If yes, then what should we do? do we have to do some things like what we did on recent fork( it is last august i think)


i have questions :
what does fork do to bitcoin? Does it have an effect on bitcoin so forks are needed? please someone answer my question and enlighten me.

[setifien19]

What hurts more is the lack of information & the time should be spread at( especially with the current congestion of network blockchain ) such information .
Hope it will be real this time

Segwit2x is coming near and yet most users still don't know a thing about it and just considers it a regular fork=free coin.

The idea of Segwit2x in theory is good. It could mean more and faster transactions. But the problem is it was planned in a shady manner by big companies that made everyone mad.
These companies treat this hardfork as if its a compromise when we're supposed to find the best solution possible. This could be achieved through technical arguments, peer review, and of course open discussion. Segwit2x did nothing of these, it was agreed in a closed door meeting without the core developers. Segwit2x somehow represents centralization and control over bitcoin.

//EDIT:  I've written to my exchange specifically asking them to *not* list your abysmal shitcoin and to ignore any requests to add it.  I encourage others to do the same.  //

This is not the original SegWit2x proposal.  Not even close.  Why would you even call it SegWit2x when it clearly involves a 4MB blocksize, along with all the other changes that weren't in the original fork?  Not to mention, on top of every other highly dubious design decision, you're stealing coins from keys that don't belong to you on this chain as an incentive to distribute to other people?  Introducing Satoshi's coins back into circulation.  How is theft an incentive unless you're a criminal?  It's a perversion of what Bitcoin was meant to be.  GTFO, you don't belong here.

I promise that all BTC holders will receive not only B2X in the ratio of 1 to 1, but also a proportional number of Satoshi Nakamoto`s Bitcoins as a reward for their commitment to progress.

Jaap Terlouw, Founder of the project Thieving Scumbag

It's just a shameless cash-in attempt by appropriating a name that people recognise and passing it off as your own.  If people invest in this shit, they deserve to have their funds stolen, because the devs are clearly okay with that.  I've seen some low things in my time on these boards, but this is something else.


For everyone else, it should go without saying, but don't import any private keys into their client until people have had an opportunity to evaluate the code, just in case this fork is as dodgy as it sounds.  

[omedian]

Hope this time it's not a fake news and we will see this hard fork.

on the 28th the BTC database is replicate, copy is taken so if you have BTC in the block-chain and on your own private wallet
where you own the private keep then you have a right to get B2X in a few weeks time

Do not let Coinbase deal with this for you because one you will have to wait a long time to get them if they
even give them to you and don't run off with them themselves

Hope this helps

[Lancusters]

I haven't heard that on December 28 we are waiting for changes, but will be adopted segwit2x or not is not important. The main thing that such changes are necessary. In any case, in 2018, the price of a transaction should be reduced. Bitcoin should be a currency. The price and speed of transaction can not be higher than the banking system.

[paolo099]

due to xmas holidays i'm not following much the news about this new-amazing-yet-another-hard-fork but it is just another fork aimed to get free coins for devs without any major improvement?

[Anti-Cen]

Fuck your petition.

This is not the original SegWit2x proposal.  Not even close.  Why would you even call it SegWit2x when it clearly involves a 4MB blocksize, along with all the other changes that weren't in the original fork?  Not to mention, on top of every other highly dubious design decision, you're stealing coins from keys that don't belong to you on this chain as an incentive to distribute to other people?  Introducing Satoshi's coins back into circulation.  How is theft an incentive unless you're a criminal?  It's a perversion of what Bitcoin was meant to be.  GTFO, you don't belong here.

You could be right and this is why I asked how many members from the original Segwit team are involved with this fork on the 28th
but you have to understand that propaganda and lies are flying off the shelf but no sooner had the old Seg team canceled the plan
than we watched transaction fees go to the moon so maybe they said "We wanted out, fuck it we are getting out now"  

BTC has been taken over by the fat cat bankers, i need no debate with you about that and the Lightning Network is the cream on the cake
See https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2648868.new#new

if someone is just steeling the block-chain like anyone can and pretending that had anything to do with the original
development then I will join you and bring them down but so far I am not convinced so convince me if you can

[gabmen]

I have also heard these rumors, apparently they want to increase the blocks to improve transactions. Maybe this news is one of the causes that Bitcoin is taking back its price.

PS: it coincides with the day of my birthday, so I hope it is a good birthday gift and allow bitcoin to increase even more.

Well this should have been implemented last month to avoid the issues about transactions being stuck and mempool and the crazy transaction fees. Hopefully once 2x gets applied it will make transactions better. Watch out for the price as well as forks tend to shoot the value of btc

[Murloc]

I hust leave some details here.

General information about the new Bitcoin Segwit2X

Estimated fork date: 12.28.2017
Total issue: 21 million
Protection against repeated transactions: Yes
Block extraction speed: 2.5 minutes
Mining: X11
Block size: increased to 4 mb
Recalculation of complexity: after each block
Unique address format: Yes

Once  again. Is it gona be another shitcoinwith the described features or it is gona be the improvement for the bitcoin before the lightning network will be released? Everything with those forks / segwits is already a bit messed up in my head.

Hello, our team is absolutely other (there are no members from the old team). The last team abandoned this project and our team decided to renew it. We are going to create a good product, be sure.

In any case, in 2018, the price of a transaction should be reduced. Bitcoin should be a currency. The price and speed of transaction can not be higher than the banking system.

Seven transactions per second is a Micky Mouse program and is not in the same league as VISA who can do
25,000 a second and even that might be too small was BTC to live up to the design and do what it says on
the box.  

"price of a transaction should be reduced"

Lightning Network is not going to achieve this and leads to centralization using hubs that i am sure Coinbase would
be very happy about so what makes you think you are right about this because if that happens then we might as well
just stick with VISA anyway and it would be safer.

I am not a gambler myself like most people here, i design systems and have no lover what so ever for the bankers
but on the technical side I can tell you that BTC won't scale and that PoW is the bigest joke going and the joke is
on you and the miners who are fighting a CPU war with each other and its a total waste of space and energy

I was not expecting that answer at all but I will give you ten out of ten for being honest with us
which half makes me want to join you but i suppose the real killer question is why did you pinch
the name instead of using your own name.

I wait in anticipation of your answer as I am sure many others will be doing because you can
see why we are all a little confused.

Work with me and I will work with you and FYI I have already contacted your team and did get
a reply that i will deal with later when you not all being rushed off your feet.

in a way that non programmers ans system designers can understand so please see

[dewi91]

until now I have not received any official notice about segwit2x, I do not know that is true or false..  actually I am not so interested about segwit2x but let's see what will happen tomorrow..

[shamzblueworld]

https://themerkle.com/segwit2x-to-be-reborn-in-coming-weeks-ahead/

Could it be the reason that bitcoin value has started increasing again after the big dip?
If true then I think it will keep on rising for now.
Good time for investment then, even for short term profit oriented one.

[zipperhead]

Any ideas which exchanges will support the Segwitx2 and when?
I am particularly interested in Bittirex position on this...

[howtobuy]

Guys, i think its just a joke. This is Huge news and would be everywhere if was true.

[jko4]

https://b2x-segwit.io/ was made by blockstream devs.
The goal of fork is  to destroy bitcoin.
Blockstream devs openly work on destroying bitcoin with fees, and now also with stupid forks.
Blockstream is on Roger Ver payroll? The only man who benefits from this SegWit drama is Roger Ver with his Bitcoin.com website. Andreas Antonopoulos, biggest 1mb limit shill, was openly paid recently by Roger Ver in form of "donations". What for he was paid over $1mil? For not liking BCH and supporting high fees in BTC blockchain? Roger Ver goal is full control of bitcoin software and bitcoin.com website, so he can be a bitcoin boss. And the only way for him to succeed is destroying bitcoin.org software.

[zipperhead]

That's what I do not like about bitcoin... it's partially like scam.
At times people are not certain about what's going on, when but it still shakes off the whole market.
Etherium is much more reliable...

[DooMAD]

Guys, i think its just a joke. This is Huge news and would be everywhere if was true.

Read the warning here before you mistakenly take this fork at face value.  

I wish it were a joke, but they're trying their best to get their "news" everywhere.  I've seen "sponsored" articles on several news sites, (NewsBTC, bitcoin.com, coinblip and others) which means they've paid money out of their own pockets to advertise this doppelganger and try to pass it off as the real SegWit2x, which was (and remains) cancelled.  If they're spending money on advertising it, that means they probably have a plan on how to recoup that investment.  I can't help but wonder if they're stealing coins from private keys that don't belong to them on this newly created chain, maybe they plan on using some of those funds for themselves.  

Again, this is not the "real" SegWit2x.  It's a morally ambiguous clone with a misappropriated name.  Tread carefully.

[Sukut]

And I read one article saying it's coming mid-January. Which one is correct, if any?

[Anti-Cen]

Again, this is not the "real" SegWit2x.  It's a morally ambiguous clone with a misappropriated name.  Tread carefully.

Agree it's not the old Segwit team and given that they dropped out then you have to ask if they can be trusted anyway
or were they brought off ?

So they took the name and admitted this to me so in that respect they have been honest so did they just take the
name to say we will finish the job that they started to give themselves a boot from the word go or it it one big scam
and if it is a scam then what have we got to loose from the free coins because i say nothing and why should i remain
loyal to BTC who has stuffed us all over on the transaction fees.

As we speak the misses is buying more BTC just to get in on the fork and I might keep in BTC for a few more weeks
but I was rushing and used Coinbase to buy and something tell me that i will get trouble when I send the coins to my Jaxx private wallet

[Anti-Cen]

And I read one article saying it's coming mid-January. Which one is correct, if any?

I think they spit the block-chain on the 28th but it will take a few weeks to trade the coin because
new flags in wallets will need to be used and the commercials will need to be set up with the
exchanges so this is quite normal.

Down the road they want to include ETH type contracts which might help generate revenue for those
things that we call miners today (More colorful name from me) but to me it seems a bit of a fudge
but we will see.

B2X was at about $1000 so with BTC at $15,000 now you will get about $75.00 worth of free
coins as an happy new year present which just now is about enough to cover just two transactions
on the BTC network so you tell me who is robbing you

[eXpl0sive]

Yes it is back but the people behind it are different. And it's a different code (the earlier was 2MB blocks and didn't even have replay protection). This new fork seems to have different mining algorithm too.

Anyway, free money is always welcome. I'll dump them as soon as I can.

[the1arty]

At the moment of fork all BTC holders will get B2X at the ratio 1BTC=1B2X. Smart Contracts. Anonymous. Security. Block Size Limit 4 MB.

That should be finally a good, long waited fork from November, finally it's here!
That's why bitcoin I guess is recovering and good chance to show the new highs!

[Anti-Cen]

Wot you mean like the CPU war created by BTC is not need or something and I hope it flops at first
just like Bitcoin Cash because it won't crash it and I get to make a little money.

Please, please remember to get your coins out from the likes of coinbase so that they are
on the block-chain and you get cut in on the deal to ensure your evil little plan works because
i would hate to see the likes of Coinbase holding on to them if the coins they have in the pool
are not fake like I suspect.

Happy new year my man

[ebliever]

Looks like another batch of scammers have come along who have no grasp of the concept or importance of consensus.

[Anti-Cen]

Looks like another batch of scammers have come along who have no grasp of the concept or importance of consensus.

The consensus is that miners have been ripping us off in transactions fees and slow to stop service speeds
so I am happy you grasp the concept and won't take it personal as we put our coats on and head in an
orderly fashion towards the doors

Now be a good chap and fetch me another beer will you now 

[batang_bitcoin]

I have seen this fork too in news around weeks ago and this isn't the first B2x that was about to happen last time. They surely realized that there's a big money in making hard forks so they made it as a habit, this isn't not that healthy for altcoins but this will make bitcoin have some another market cap.

And I read one article saying it's coming mid-January. Which one is correct, if any?

It's about to happen on December 28.

[johniadeluca]

Information about it is so confusing at the moment. No straightforward answer, hard to decipher what's actually going to happen. Would Coinbase support it?

thank you for sharing mate, i'm not upadated starting in the holiday season because busy for the family bonding, i think this news for segwitx2 are contnuation of the last fork correction.

NICE another shitcoin.

Will dump asap.

Strong this^

Seems like a shady way to get started, initially staying away from this one but will dump soon after 

[coffee44]

on first look it seems like some are trying to get rich quick on bitcoins back , btc cash , btc gold, btc this n that , soon there will will be 50 different ones all the way down to btc fart coin , something looks off here

Well, let's just see. I've been waiting for this one too. It was cancelled multiple times. I hope this one is the real one. Even coin base sent me an e mail about this a month ago. However, I didn't know what happened. I think it was delayed or something. Maybe this one will happen on december 28th.

[coffee44]

is this not like the uk gov bailing out banks ?
whats this all about ?

[xuan87]

Segwit ia back? I think we don't really need any forking anymore, in this month there are already so many forking until I am confused, I don't know what is the usage of the each forking coin, and this makes the Bitcoin popularity decreasing among the investors, but segwit is one of the most anticipate fork, hopefully this forking could bring something good for bitcoin

[BossMacko]

Ok. Fork again,another coin promising to become better than the original Bitcoin. How many forks did we had already? each of those fork has the same goal to become better than the original Bitcoin and  to solve the current problem of the original Bitcoin but what happened on the previous coins that was created after the fork?

money money money , get rich quick for some ?
will this not say to investors that it is not stable and cant be trusted any longer

[Schirer]

ok, it seems as it is actually a attempt of fraud .

At the start it already was very suspicious  that there are no big news of Segwit2x and also there would have been a significant market reaction to this event.

THus i call this BS.

[BountySoldier]

I'm really tired of all of this. So many forks so many suffering. Nobody wants to hold it, just dumping and holding BTC longer. Im very Upset with BTG either as BTH - shitcoin, and diamond/lighting...

[ahmetsusar]

is it not canceled ?

[RodneyKings]

Don't really want to believe these news about fork that's coming out almost every month. Was it last month or last October that there should be 3 forks coming but didn't pushed through. They are just creating FUD or whatever for hodlers. What I decided lately is just hold my BTCs on my wallet and just wait for fork to come true, I'd be very happy if there will be something like Bitcoin Cash created so I could convert it again to BTC.  

[bloodyvio]

so this is why bitcoin prices have rebounded in recent days after falling more than 20%
I wonder if this segwit2x will fix the problem bitcoin or just produce another shitforkcoin

[CyberKuro]

Hope this time it's not a fake news and we will see this hard fork.

No, it won't happen on the main nodes. Bitcoin will not change and this fork just like a fud news or the best result will create another altcoin as this proposal is unrelated to the original SegWit2x proposal. I admit people want to see the scale problem finally resolved due to high fees problem and the best hope for now are segwit fully implemented on every wallet and platform and lightning network.

maybe this news is true, i also got information about segwit2x from some sites and see many tweet that discuss segwit2x

It could be possible to happen, but at least we are all aware on this. Anyway, there is nothing to worry with this and it happen already for many time since from the start. Only we have to do is to stay calm and see what is the result for this after it launch.

[coffee44]

the question is WHY ? when bitcoin is supposed to be the best , the first one and only, who gains from this

[Gorgeous011235]

Will hit happen for real? And will it solve the BTC problems?
I don't know..i am still confused about this forks..especially about the Segwit2x...it was supposed to be done in November and now it seems the devs have changed their mind again and want to make it happen now.
Sincerely i don't think this can change the path of BTC...just another attempt to move the King away like Bitcoin Cash...but it won't work...

[landuvour]

This fork is a scam, they are even asking for private keys, there is another topic here in the forum that shows it.

[sic_null]

why revive a project that has died twice already?

[PROdotBITCOIN]

the question is WHY ? when bitcoin is supposed to be the best , the first one and only, who gains from this

In order for us to receive new free coins. It seems to me that this is due to the fact that bitcoi has become very slow. And to improve the network, the developers do Segwit2x

[awazieik]

Not surprised that this is happening. I did not expect anything less. After all, with the crazy transaction fees that are happening in the bitcoin network, something has to be done. All that is left is to see what happens

[Thermatic]

Bitcoin needs to be updated. 200k pending transactions make me sick

lol yeah come along with us and we shall give you some free magic beans 

[sic_null]

exchanges need to support Segwit. BCash peeps need to stop spamming the network too. Those two alone can drastically decrease fees. 

[BossMacko]

ok, it seems as it is actually a attempt of fraud .

At the start it already was very suspicious  that there are no big news of Segwit2x and also there would have been a significant market reaction to this event.

THus i call this BS.

They can clone Bitcoin many times , make the new coin very special or very unique or any but the success of that coin will depend on the community that will support to it.

By developers you mean the same random beggars launching 5 ICOs and 50 new shitrypto currencies every single day? do you know that people used to call me a dev back in the old days? you shitposters bring Core devs in to the discussion to make it seem like a serious crypto.
Buying this shitcoin is equal to buying my activity tokens on Waves DEX (note that I'm indirectly planting the seeds of curiosity in order to further my agenda which is collecting money for the girl and a place to jump her however I'd like just as dev(s) here are trying to do the same things). X2lol.
(wait, hey dev, I'm talking to you, dev to dev, tell me if you are planning to spend Satoshi's coins on pussies and drink and then call it a fair distribution to the community, how come you are not taking every body's coins to get rich and maybe even become the president of USA?). lol2X.

[GambleTime]

so this is why bitcoin prices have rebounded in recent days after falling more than 20%
I wonder if this segwit2x will fix the problem bitcoin or just produce another shitforkcoin

If it gives you FREE MONEY I wouldn't call it "shitforkcoin" ...even if we are speaking about shit :-)
Just convert it in btc...and be happy. Why not?!

[tech55]

Anyone know if there is still some time to buy some BTC and be eligible to receive the fork coins?

I see it says Dec. 28th but when is the buy time cutoff exactly?

Also when are the forked coins distributed?

Thanks.

[Ging]

too much new news in the crypto world is this Segwit2x another fork of bitcoin if that is true what happened to diamond fork we will wait tomorrow and check the new our-self.

[novy]

I watched the fresh review and honestly, I don't believe in the dev team. The site looks like some russian scam project ))) and the team was changed since the very first time, so be very careful if you like to invest...

[monkQBT]

Hoping true......   but thinking unlikely

[Koobtcgal]

I received the mail as well but I have most of my bitcoins on binance. Does anyone know about binance say about this new fork? They are good are giving us our  balances if there is a successful fork tomorrow. Waiting hope everything will be okay.

[zakalwe]

What price do you expect for Segwit2x B2X coin? Is it worth dumping altcoins to have more bitcoins or not?

[Haslett5236]

i am very curious about it's price when the folk succefully happen

there are too many folk chain base on bitcoin  this year and better to hold btc for a long time

[hackzang12]

Yes there is a Segwit2x on Dec 28 but its not a major news because it may list on small exchanges so traders are not going to pump bitcoin hardfork is an issue and it will destroy the price of bitcoin in the next few years coz new comers/investors wants to buy the other fork of bitcoin

[mr angry]

It will probably crash in price quickly after launch as all the bitcoin holders dump to increase their bitcoin stash. That's what happened with some of the other forks.

[GPU5970]

That fork is going to be a mess.. came on guys, stop expecting to see this forked coin in extremely high prices because we all know that it is not going to happen.

Bitcoin cash was the last useful fork.

[TheBeardedBaby]

Coinbase was preparing for this fork for a very long time but I haven't heard anything about it yet. It was a big thing the cancellation of the B2X because of the disagreement of some of the big gamers and I think it affected quite a lot the last crazy uptrend of the Bitcoin. I wonder what will happen now it this is true. We will see tomorrow.

[Anti-Cen]

Lots of news but i agree it's been kept out of the main stream media just like the crazy high
transaction costs for BTC but Bx2 is trading and I suspect your upset as a miner because the
jig is almost up where you can milk the system.

What you say could be termed as slander but if your looking for fraud then may i suggest that
you go back to the white paper and read the bit about "Virtually free transaction fees again" because
$40 plus is not what it said on the box

Public static Money MaxFees =1.50 //Should fix BTC

Coinbase was preparing for a fork with the same name, but from a different dev team. I doubt it will list this fork.

[shams]

Yes, I am going to happen after few hours and I am very excited and Holding bitcoin to get free segwit 2x. By the way, it is a good way to improve bitcoin technology but this should not happen again and again like what is happening now because after some time people will ignore this and it will not impact the market much so it is better to upgrade the whole technology in one go.

[adrianto1995]

https://themerkle.com/segwit2x-to-be-reborn-in-coming-weeks-ahead/

I Think this is what makes bitcoin price pump again and all altcoin price's dumped
everyone try to selling this altcoin to buy more bitcoin to get free segwit
 

[Sukut]

So there's less than 12 hours left to this fork and there is no legit source that says whether this fork is a scam or not..

Expect many more fork will come next year and expect more shitcoins to born.
This segwit2x has not much affect the current price and it's not making noise after all like it will just past this day without even noticing.
Forks are for upgrading the network but people take advantage of it to make their coins and go with the hype.

[Acguy]

This is just another irrelevant fork.

[InspiratorNels]

Surely the Segwit2x fork has taken place, we will se what happens from here, good or bad
 life goes on, BITCOIN remains...However we want a real improvement in the transaction time and a massive reduction in the transaction fees...Any team who can deliver this and still keep the chain will be a genius.
