Now everything is clear, bitcoin cash has come, and we can claim, I think this is a good step to make bitcoin in the future.

Congratulations, have got free BCC. I'm glad the fork has passed.
Hopefully BTC is not disturbed. Everything will be back to normal.

I could tell that before August 1 ends that investors and traders took the Fork well because the price is still hovering above the 2700$ level. Which is pretty big for something with a lot of uncertainties, also we saw that before August 1 it has hit around the 2850$ level which tells us that buyers are stocking their Bitcoin in which I assume they did because they want to have more Bitcoin Cash in return.

Don't listen to the Fudders and the haters. If you not here for Bitcoin then why are you here ?
Think for yourself.

Yeah it's true, BCC is already on bittrex: https://bittrex.com/Market/Index?MarketName=BTC-BCC
The price keeps flatuating as it is currently trading at a 10th of btc. Future will only tell BCC fate. I hope my bitcoins keep growing... I'm still holding but you can choose to sell yours to dump btc- I assure everyone that it'll rise again, lol

In the latest news, there are reassuring remarks that no split has happened, that everything is fine with bitggin and you can safely carry out transactions. But, apparently, not everything is so calm and good.

For today I would not try fate and try to pass and transactions or you can save your coins or not. Maybe nothing happened and there is no fork but that there is a split and it already shows on two exchanges.

What is this website? This website is for warning users if the Bitcoin blockchain has experienced a chain split due to the various fork proposals such as Segwit2x and BIP 148 UASF. If a chain split is detected, there will be a red warning banner at the top of the page stating that a chain split has been detected. Once a chain split has been detected, the status for each node will update with the block height of the most recent split from other nodes and the hash of the block at that height. The site will also warn if a node has fallen behind one of the other nodes and has not split onto a different chain from other node. It will also warn if one of the nodes has recently experienced a blockchain reorganization.

Thank you for the information you provide. We will definitely be wary about this. We hope this forum is not closed because this is where our work is.

Yes, the forum now has a lot of soothing information. In particular, that it is already safe to carry out transactions with bitcoins. However it seems that while it is necessary to refrain from this. Thanks for the warning.

Because of this atrocious speed of finding new blocks on the BCC chain it would take ages to get coins out of wallets to any exchange lol. I would crank up the TX fees to the max to get mine confirmed among the first Wink

Perhaps the people who have kept their BTC on supported exchanges are going to get their BCC coins first.

has it forked or not? is there a post were it is confirmed that the fork was sucessful?

They have yet to mine a block.

I am not panic but still consider how bitcoin cash will be, maybe after they mine a block, it will be clearer about how much transactions going through their chain. BIP148 UASF already activated with no split and no issue but Bcash split time will on 12:20 UTC today, But it's 02.56 and there is no chain split detected? I want to cash out my free bcash obviously, but still unclear about what happen with it.

Reminder #2: If in doubt buy Monero and enjoy

Why monero? Why not LTC, STRAT, ANS, XVG, DTB

I could think of several reasons why. Good anonimity that is hardly present with bitcoin, accepted on deep web markets, it's prosperous coin that will very likely have nice future and din have issues like Bitcoin. But of course everyone can choose according to his own preferences and interests.

To recap everything thats happened so far today all new blocks are segregated witness blocks because the UASF (User activated soft fork) is now actively preventing non segwit blocks from propagating across the Bitcoin network.
Any attempt to produce a non-segwit block would result in a fork.

In other news...

The alt coin Bitcoin Cash also known as BitcoinABC or BitmainCash is being mined but they don't have anywhere near the amount of hash power everyone thought they would get... At the current hashrate it will take them days to mine a block. I'm assuming more hash power will be directed toward their new coin after the first block is mined/found or they are mining in secret to protect there new chain from attack...

I don't really ubderstand your point, sorry. Why does it sound like a scam? Bitcoin cash isn't a brand new coin, it's a fork of bitcoin. Meaning you take the original bitcoin source code, modify it to your liking, make improvements, fix some stuff and release.
It doesn't create money out of thin air? Where are you getting that statement from?

You will have two separate blockchains. Hence if you now own BTC after split you will own BTC and BCC. Why does not BCC start with an empty blockchain?

Thank you very much for your information. The link is really a useful one. Today is a unnormal day but tomorrow it will be normal. Lets just wait and see everything goes normal again!

From what I'm seeing only 5% of network hashrate is being redirected to the new altcoin

no blocks have been found yet ... so no hard fork yet... but with such a low hashrate it could take hours or even days for them to find a block.

Now we wait

It could be a very long day today.

The Bitcointalk forums could be Ddosed, Bitcoin service providers like exchanges and wallet providers may go off line.

Websites and companies may be hacked. Be extremely skeptical of everything you read.

Be wary of any links on this website unless your behind a VPN. If someone sends you a private message asking you to click a link don't do it! Your giving away your IP address to a potential hacker.

And while we all want Bitmain-cash to die may I suggest letting the VC money (the stupid money) pump it up a bit before we all sell? I hate this shit just as much as you but it may be worth more in 6 months then it is today.

Don't trust Bitmain-Cash-wallets they could be back-doored.

To Avoid replay attacks on the Bitcoin network create a new Bitcoin wallet and move your Bitcoins to that wallet AFTER the fork then use your old now empty wallet.dat file with a Bitmain-cash client.

Make encrypted backups of all your wallets new and old before doing anything.

Make sure your passwords are really strong. https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.18152557

Update: The BitcoinTalk forums are being inundated with negative stories and FUD! They want you sell don't do it! Not today! Bitcoiners HODL!

They are doing everything they can to scare the community today and cause a panic sell off, don't let these shills manipulate you!

And remember Don't Panic! Everything is going to be ok.

Many thanks for your advice and reminders. This will be a guide to us not to lose our bitcoin to potential hackers. I will share this thread to my friends who are in to bitcoin to, to become wary in the things that happening behind those links. Thank you again
