So is it live now?  Shocked Shocked Shocked

The rules are live (in a sense).  The next step is to build a block greater than 1 MB in size, extending block #478558.

Yes.  Block #478558 should activate the UAHF rules.

I've got amazing powers of observation
Best practices to be safe on the fork. Hopefully this will help some people that are still confused:

1-    Wait until after the fork when a few BCC blocks have been mined. There is no hurry, you can wait a day, a week, e
tc. Copy the BTC private key where you have your BTC funds.

2-    Move all your bitcoin BTC to a new wallet with a new private key. BCC has replay protection, so you will be able
to move your BTC without moving your BCC.

3-    Wait until your Bitcoin BTC is confirmed in the new wallet. Be sure to complete steps 1-3 before moving to step 4
.

4-    Install a Bitcoin Cash (BCC) wallet and enter the private keys of the original wallet (the wallet you just moved
your Bitcoin BTC out of). To be maximally safe, the BCC wallet should be installed on a different machine than the one
that has your new Bitcoin BTC wallet on it. You can find a list of BCC wallets on the Bitcoin Cash website.

5-    This step isn’t necessary, but as a final step you may want to move your BCC to a new BCC wallet with a new priva
te key, just to help ensure you don’t mistake your BCC wallet address for the BTC address it used to be.

I have few on Bittrex, but trades are not active yet. Are we are going to wait that particular block now, or they gonna start trading before? We had chance to see few countdown timers, they were inaccurate or what?

The question is: how much of Bitcoin's hashrate will be put to looking for the first Bitcoin Cash block?


Hopefully very little.

Bitcoin Cash will launch in about five blocks.

You might have heard that the controversial fork is scheduled for 12:20 UTC on August 1, but the story is a little more complicated than that.

The launch doesn’t trigger right as a block is mined after that time. Rather, the activation is based on Median Time Past, which means that the median timestamp of the last 11 blocks must be over 12:20 UTC. In other words, six blocks need to be mined after the original block past that time.

At press time, the last two bitcoin blocks, mined by Bitfury and ViaBTC, were both under 1 MB.

More precisely: 6 blocks to go before we can start building a fork (around 1 hour).

Block 478553 was the first block with a timestamp past 12:20 UTC.  If the next 6 blocks have timestamps past this point then the last of these blocks will have MTP past 12:20 UTC and we can start looking.

The question is: how much of Bitcoin's hashrate will be put to looking for the first Bitcoin Cash block?


Hopefully very little.

You will get same amount of BCC as BTC you have.

still no fork?

We've not started looking yet.  Need a block with MTP >= 12:20pm UTC to start.

The Bitcoin network will fork as soon as a block larger than 1MB has been produced as per the UAHF technical spec.

Yeah, that's just wrong.

Yes.  I'm just saying that coin.dance is wrong on this one.  They've misunderstood the spec to which they refer.  An easy mistake to make, but a mistake nontheless.

so can we use our btc now and get bitcoin cash later , or need to wait little bit longer ?

At the very least, I'd wait until an actual fork has occurred.  Anything you spend, may not necessarily end up on the BCC chain.
