To be honest, i really don't care. Because even if i don't like these forks, i can do nothing to stop them. But hey, at least there are free money from these forks.

The cancellation of B2X might change that. Bgold futures dumped on the news, and so did Bcash. Regular altcoins (non-Bitcoin dividends), on the other hand, rallied. It might not be the bottom for altcoins, but this kind of relief rally will allow those coins that haven't bottomed to breathe, and the next dump will probably be the last.

You're right that we can do nothing to stop them, though. But people will care less and less. Apparently something called "Bitcoin Silver" is coming out, but does anyone even care anymore??

far as i know it is going to be postponed for more than a month, or maybe two, but there are going to be new forks on December and in January, of course, but we dont know the real names of them yet.
But i really think that this whole situation with all the forks is getting crazy, maybe we are going to see about two forks every month in some time from now, hahah, this is getting very crazy, but i like the way that it is going.
If it is cancelled, then it is better, but if it really got postponed, it is going to be a good notice for all of us in some months.

Seriously, there's hardforks scheduled for December and January? At this rate splitting fork coins soon won't be worth the effort anymore. People already hardly cared about Bitcoin Gold, I don't think any of the other junk forks are going to get far either. BCH and B2X at least had some sort of community support, but now it's just getting silly.

I don't know about the December and January forks but they are not unexpected at all, we are going to face many forks from now. I agree that bitcoin users don't really cares about the forks like Bitcoin Gold and Bitcoin Cash in the past. Although this one B2x have got great support than any of the previous forks but after the date has been postponed it seems worthless now.

Yep and this news has had a major impact in the current bull run of altcoins and also bitcoin before a dump off. I really would expect the price of bitcoin to climb once again since now it is seen as one unified coin again.

It'll be extremely interesting to see how the price reacts to when segwit2x gets reannounced.

They're saying that it's just postponed, so not entirely cancelled.

Canceled segwit2x or not is not important. The main thing that the problem of imperfection bitcoin left and it needs to be addressed. Bitcoin is an innovative asset and if its not correct he can lose the fight with its competitors. Interests Shterev can not be higher than the interests of the entire community.

As I understand the statement they released, they do not want to have a hard fork or divide the community that is why they are cancelling segwit2x. They want it that bitcoin will adopt the larger block size through segwit2x but they did not get it so they are cancelling. They are hoping when the community realize that there really is a need for larger block size they will consider this solution.

I just heard about the rumour of the bitcoin silver, i don't know where is it from but it seems a lot of people are talking about that right now.
Bitcoingold worth nothing now rather than a coin and i'd liked to call that as another trash. But if the recent announcement of the delay of the b2x fork means if that was getting cancel or not?
I still don't understand about the truth.
