No.

An action that forces users out of the Bitcoin economy is a net negative and destroys the confidence major investors have in Bitcoin. This proceeds to impact the value, and so on and so forth. They took a risk getting in on something early, and got rewarded for it later on.

There is legitimately no need to scratch off the first year of Bitcoin. None. All I see here is a rationalization based around "they have more and I don't have as much so get rid of them".

Hey, I see bitcoin price appreciate by more than +0.6% which is better than negative growth, I do not think there is any possibility of bitcoin price to fall because we are in the ember months in which people make lots of purchases with bitcoin. The potential of bitcoin is truly unlimited, the consequences of recent halving yet to come out, maybe this year end hype may bring $1000 levels too.

Hardfork for bitcoin ? why it is needed? no any problem in network and only to clean up what whales have you want hard fork?  Grin

I don't think it is good idea to stop manipulation as the one with lots of fiat can easily again grab all bitcoins from poor holders from trading.

My idea is to hard fork bitcoin for normal users and put the big manipulators out of play.

Just do it man. Hardfork and let it compete on the market. See what happens!

This is one of the beauties of Bitcoin. Every half-wit with some hair-brained idea can implement it at any time.

Fork it, get your superior coders, and share it with everyone.

I'll be holding my breath in anticipation!

Lol, I thought Op was being serious when i first read that proposal. I would have loved to have been in on bitcoin in the first year as much as everyone else but obviously something like removing the coins from the first year is a total no go. That would onjly bring bitcoin to collapse if people in the future had to worry about their money being forked away from them.

However i think hard forks can easily become reason to split any crypto network into two networks where only one network can win just like how ETH got splitted into two recently after hard fork. Better to stick with current bitcoin network and the idea of cleaning up early adopter's bitcoin is like robbing them.

Everyone that was here from the start knows what great potential bitcoin had, what a great idea it was.
We also know the current price says nothing and is pure manipulation by a few big players.

We can remake bitcoin to invalidate the first year of all bitcoin. This would take away hundreds of millions of get-rich-quick money from these manipulators that are trying to scam us out of our money.
It sounds like an extreme idea but cryptocurrencies can easily survive hard forks as we've seen over and over.
We NEED to get rid of these overly rich GREEDY manipulators in order to SAVE Bitcoin.
We also need a new team of motivated and intelligent developers that can address the flaws Bitcoin still suffers, as current development has pretty much halted.

Bitcoin still has so much potential.

What do you guys think, how would this work out?


Only someone who can't afford a decent amount of btc would post such mindless drivel...

No ! If people were here before you, that's good for them. You're just jealous of them. To me, their braveness to invest in that technology, either time or money, should be rewarded as it is now.

i think manipulators like you, especially those who use social media to spread the FUD should be arrested or at least kicked out of the crypto market so that the price can continue rising generically as it has been so far. Wink

Or better yet we could each receive an equal portion of bitcoins as a salary from one dictator. Doctors, lawyers, burger flippers and retail workers would all have the same bitcoin salary.

It sounds so familiar. I just can't put my finger on it...

As much as I don't like price manipulation and behind the closed door financial schemes myself, I find your idea is simply not good.

Firstly - we unfortunately can't get rid of whales, if you eliminate one, then we will have two others in his place.

Secondly - hard forking bitcoin just to get rid of people who you think are harming our economy is against bitcoin.

Thirdly - your purge will have exactly opposite effect on Bitcoin, it will undermine trust and make the market crash.

If you ask me, then no, it won't and couldn't possibly work out. The reason for that is very simple. Just imagine that those first year greedy beasts got stripped of their wealth somehow. Let's say they all lost their private keys and thus the capacity to manipulate the market. And what would it change in the end? Some people with heaps of money could still buy a lot of bitcoins of what is left, and we would be basically back to where we are now having the same greedy manipulators.
