Upcoming Bitcoin Hard Fork, which chain will you stay on?

[athanred]

except this time, we don't even get any money from the forked coins

Well, you can try to get a bunch of satoshis out of it, but it is probably not worth it. If you have BIP-110 coins, that are worth less than 50k satoshis on BTC, then you probably shouldn't even try. And if you have more, then it can be risky to reveal, how much BTC you have, because splitting the coins will obviously reveal it.

What level of delusion do BLuk-ers have that makes them think they can steal bitcoin's name when their predecessors failed?

At the beginning, they could at least pretend, that "we only did a soft-fork", but now, all working BIP-110 chains just hard-forked in that way or another, while the original BIP-110 is stuck at block height 961,639.

well according to Luke - the "real" Bitcoin was attacked and forked off leaving the "real" Bitcoin with no hash rate so that is why they switched algo's - to save the "real" Bitcoin.

He is in total denial of reality.

bitcoin purity forked from BCH not BTC so you would need to have BCH to get bitcoin purity

No, that's incorrect. It forked at height 961637. AFAIK the few (I think 2) blocks mined by the BIP110 folks are also included in the Purity chain.

I will look for it again but I could have sworn he said bitcoin purity was a BCH fork

ahh yes I was confusing it with another fork - BitFinite - which is a fork of BCH - another confusing coin as it uses a name "BitFinite" which was another altcoin from years ago and then also uses "BFX" which is tied to Blockchain FX coin that uses the ticker BFX as well.

I would think these new coins would pick a name that is not already used by another altcoin.

so, my error - it was Bitfinite that is a fork of BCH.

Just how insane is he? A good list with supporting links is here.

At this point I am just waiting to hear what kind of psychedelics they are all on.

their first exchange which had recently delisted them has relisted them again and now the B2B coin is at around 330 but if it is just their small circle of a few hundred members trading back and forth is that true sales/buys? or just circle jerking amongst themselves in an attempt to raise the price?

Probably a bit of both.
Someone comes in and dumps the price to get rid of their coins and then they come back and bid it up again.
Sooner or later they are going to run out of BTC
At that price I don't know if many people are going to bother to split their coins to sell.
