There is Bitcoin and everything else which is not Bitcoin.

At present Core heads up Bitcoin's development but if 2X had attracted enough developers and users then that would've become Bitcoin. It hasn't, so it won't.

All the people who are attacking Core really have gone around it in the wrong way. You don't 'beat' them by squealing and then offering shit ideas that no one else wants. You become better than them in every possible way until your superiority is undeniable. At that point 'firing' Core becomes a no brainer.

The older your coins are in storage the more access to forked coins you have.
You can buy BTC on the 24th, snapshot is taken on the 25th and you can sell them again.
And you will receive your forked coins, they don't have to be sitting in your wallet days,months....

Some days ago the main developers group of Bitcoin Core release a ultimatum to companies and services to pronounce them self related to the upcoming Bitcoin Hardfork in November, the Segwit2x. Some companies as Xapo, Bitpay and Coinbase signed contracts where it states, that they will support the implementation of the hardfork even if there is still a lot of discussion, about that, between users and developers.

Does this mean that Core Bitcoins are and will always be the most valuable one? We have Bitcoin Cash, Bitcoin Gold and on November, Segwit2x, all forked from Core Bitcoin.
stop giving weird names to bitcoin!
it is not core bitcoin, it is not bitcoin core, or anything else it is simply bitcoin it doesn't have any trailing names to it!

Sorry, I am just giving a distinction for this thread. I know there is only one Bitcoin, relax.

It also makes me believe that the older your coins are in your storage, the more valuable they are because they are entitled for all the Bitcoin forks.
some of these forks last for a short time though!
for example BitCore (if i am not mistaken) airdrop will end by the end of this month and they distribute the remainder of the airdrop somehow among the existing users.

Is this a split from the Bitcoin blockchain or a fork in the code? There is a difference. The first one splits the community, the second one can be a scam.

Yes, this could use some clarification...as far as I know that only fork from the original bitcoin where we can actually claim the forked coins if we have our private key is Bitcoin Cash (BCH). But if there are other forked coins that are still valid, please let us know. Smiley

bitcoin has been forked at least 600 times and that many altcoins have been spawned from it. some of which did airdrops to bitcoin holders. it doesn't make bitcoin more or less valuable than it is. the value of bitcoin comes from its usage and adoption. mostly from being a currency.
