It is now time to fork bitcoin. There is no reason to have only one.
With new efforts to integrate user identities - there is now a very big divide between two competing schools of thought. Each can go down their respective paths without interfering with the progress of the others. The one thing necessary for this to occur - exists wonderfully.
To create Bitcoin1 and Bitcoin2, we'd need to divide the processing power. Fortunately, we presently have more than twice the processing power that is necessary. The network is a perfect capacity for being split.
Bitcoin1 can go on with the anarchists/outlaws who hate all government involvement and despises law and order. Bitcoin2 can intergrate things which improve decent use in an orderly society.
Time to Fork Bitcoin.

Time to Fork Dollar. Dollar1 can go on with the outlaws who want to sell drogues and illegal things. Dollar2 can be use for buy and sell good things in an orderly society.

I don't think a fork is healthy for Bitcoin, so we shouldn't strive for it. Every owner of Bitcoins would have equally much Bitcoin1 and Bitcoin2 and could dump the ones he doesn't like on the market. Add the confusion that will spread (do they trade Bitcoin1 or 2 on that exchange?), this could hurt Bitcoin a lot.

Take a deep breath and calm down.
The Boy Who Cried Fork?
Neither fork would be be better off. First, the idea of Bitcoin itself has to succeed.

Ok. Does Bitcoin1 still use a distributed blockchain? If so, I am going to create a businesses that blacklists/whitelists coins and addresses in Bitcoin1's blockchain.

Continue to fight to keep bitcoin from being corrupted....if it actually happens.
No need to fork bitcoin, as you can buy/use/support a viable fork in litecoin.

Litecoin is actually pretty similar to what a bitcoin fork would feel like. On top of that, it doesn't take infrastructure away from Bitcoin.
Use Litecoin if you're unhappy with Bitcoin?

You know what it is time for ? For the Bitcoin Foundation as it is to be scrapped and have this ridiculous idea of black/red whatever listing banned.

Maybe we should just wait for the bubble to burst then all sit down together and regroup?

NMC is a huge discount compared to BTC -- they both essentially run the same code and have similar computing power in their network. It makes sense that NMC should also start increasing in $price.

Go ahead, fork it, I'm SURE around 50% of miners and node owners will follow you... ![Grin](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/grin.gif)

yes you could do this. Litecoin is a "backup" and forces bitcoin to go in the "right" direction.

Let those who wants to make it another fiat currency fork it. The rest of us should just stick to clients using the original protocol, and possibly implement better anonymity.
