The same methodology that BCH and BTG use for supply should apply equally to BTX. Just because people do not claim their coins, they are sitting there and assessible by those that control their BTC keys. The reality is, many of the sub-2012 coins that haven't been moved yet will never be claimed, and that also applies to BCH and BTG. Considering how detailed the transaction activity has been documented for airdrops, virtual fork, etc, there is no reason why CMC can't adjust the supply.

Now BTX is below 20$.
I think it is now really undervalued by the market, it could be one proper time to invest on it

Too bad there's no way to get these coins back for a better use!

I think when the distribution model was voted (and I was part of the ones that voted for this option), I don't think we clearly understood the implication of such decision. I personally thought they would all be in circulation in a matter of just a few weeks. I believe most of us thought that it would be an easy walk in the park just like the BCash fork, but clearly, most of these 8M coins will never really be in circulation. In my opinion, it's one of the reasons CMC still don't show the full circulation.

What's helping all these Bitcoin forks is that a large number of exchanges directly credit account holders with the free Bitcoin fork. Should this process also apply for Bitcore? What does the dev team need to do to make it happen?

The coins are in circulation..they are as much in circulation as they are in bitcoin, or bcash or bitcoingold.
Why does it matter to you if someone touched his coins or not? It doesn't matter to you in bitcoin either right? It doesn't matter to people in bch or other forks either.

And how can you say this is a reason for cmc to not show the correct supply when it works exactly the same as bcash or btg's (and many others) circulating supply?

Hitbtc was/is supposed to do this, why cryptopia or none of the other exchanges didn't do this is also unclear to me.

How come the massive dump off right now? I knew it would retrace some after the big drop and surge but I wasn't expecting it to retrace this hard. Obviously too there would be some sell off after airdrops but did some people completely bail and tank this coin down? Seems like a weird progression to me given that once things are updated and running smoothly this coin should be back 300k satoshi and above. Also lastly I am on board with redistributing the BTX coins from Bitcoin claimers to those who are loyal that seems fair especially if you give them a deadline that is 3-4 months away from now. Any thoughts on this idea?

I completely agree with redistributing the BTX from BTC holders if they dont claim it by a certain time. I dont know why they should get free BTX if they havent invested time, money or energy into BTX. Ive been mining from the beginning and have also spent on it. Just because someone holds lots of BTC shouldnt mean they are entitled to free BTX without being a part of it.

as far as HITBtc.. I dont use it, dont understand the thrill or excitement about it as there are better exchanges..


Well, if you're talking about the coins distributed through virtual fork, then it's can't be called back. The community should have voted against that action in the first place. And I do agree those are lost coins for many reasons. Nobody would wake up in 6months from now to remember he had a BTX to claim for his 1 BTC. We should just move on

100% against redistributing what has already been distributed to the BTC holders. Goes against the immutable nature of the blockchain.

My wallet has not been synchronizing for hours...0 active connections to Bitcore Network.
I use BitCore Core Version v0.14.1.6-757738d  on Mac. What can I do?

working fine here 8 connections superfast but
Maybe check your firewall make sure it is allowed or just try and reinstall the bitcore client.
don't forget to back up your wallet file and keys.

You guys don't know what you're talking about. There is no such thing as redistributing.. the coins that have been distributed through btc addresses belong to the owners of those addresses/privatekeys. They are written transactions in the chain. Out of anyone's control besides the owner.

Just thought I throw my 2cents on the recent price drop..


https://imgur.com/a/pGeHU

If you look at graph above (click on link if it doesn't appear), the purple zone shows the price rise associated with the HitBTC new listing euphoria.

- The HitBTC new listing rumor started to circulate within the BTX community on November 9th when price was at 120k-140k sats.
- Then on Nov 9th, ppl started to be excited with this new HitBTC listing rumor, and price started to rise to 170k sats.
- The dev team confirmed the new HitBTC listing news on Nov 11th. The quote below was posted on Nov 11.

Listing on HitBTC Officially Confirmed

Dear Bitcore Community,

Bitcore will be listing on HitBTC.com on November 16, 2017. This is a momentous day that will go down in Bitcore history! Buckle up and enjoy the ride to come!

Your Bitcore Team

- Then the euphoria started because everyone was expecting to see a huge volume from HitBTC. Everyone was expecting to moon!
- Then all kinds of HitBTC issues came up, adding to the ridiculously low volume made this new listing euphoria slowly go away over the past few days/weeks.

Over the past few hours, the BTX price came back to the prior HitBTC euphoria level which is below 140k sats. That's the green zone on the graph.

The BTX market did his thing and completely rejected the HitBTC component from its price. From now on, we are building on a solid foundation.

Have we reached the bottom? I think the answer is yes.

If HitBTC would have matched the expectation level everyone had, the price would have stayed in the $35 - $50 range. But HitBTC failed to deliver on the expectation we all had.

I think this is a good lesson for everyone in preparation for the next big listing.


I was looking at the graphs yesterday and saw the same thing!  I was one of the ones holding and building on the hype of HitBTC to deliver but no dice.  It seems the hype has died down and we are back to normal of finding the "floor" again.  I do believe it will recover someday, but only when the FUD is addressed with action on improvements and upgrades to current issues, and getting on more exchanges.

Eventually, this coin and it's technical advantage will come to light and I believe that's when bag holders and accumulators will be rewarded.

Bitcore (BTX) - The Future is Now
I hope hitbtc will distribute the free btx to users soon and make an major announcement on this. Cool

I don't know what's making them wait so long, a little more effort from hitbtc's side would be nice.
I think they just sold the BTX they got through the snapshot completely. Else there would be no explanation why they are having trouble to process the withdrawals of the users.
Is HitBTC really this shady or what is the deal? I never checked their BTX volume often but when I did it was abysmal, I thought this was a big exchange too...

--ypsi
Shady is a bit mild. Or what would you say if you want to withdraw coins for around 1BTC and they are not processing the withdrawal and you can't do anything other than watch your balance drop from 1 BTC to under 0.5BTC. I needed to withdraw because if you want to sell 1/5 of the daily volume it doesn't really work out as you wish.
Anything I got till now are lame excuses and we're feeling with you. No substantial explanation, just nothing. If that isn't shady... a exchange has to guarantee you your deposits are safe and backed by the exchange. Obviously that's not the case on HitBTC.

I agree it's more than shady, it's a  major shitshow over there at hitbtc. At this point I don't really care about their excuses, they have proven their incompetence.
They will really need to step it up to redeem themselves but I doubt that will happen.

Never let your money stay on an exchanger. This is a golden rule, even with hi fees you should try to never let money sitting on exchangers
My coins were only for 4 days on the exchange. And they were there for a reason, I wanted to sell and get som BTC on HitBTC to work with it over there. But obviously I was mistaken into thinking this would be a good idea.

Thanks. What URL do you use to request the balance of a specific address?

https://chainz.cryptoid.info/api.dws?a=getbalance ? That is what the API documentation says, but where do you provide the address?

Is there a free and open to use API to retrieve some data of Bitcore like balance of address or details of a specific transaction?
I tried ChainId's API but it requires an API key.
Yeah I use the API here in Excel:

https://chainz.cryptoid.info/btx/

Try this one:
