Chinese mining cartel is a cancer in the ecosystem...

People will see through their actions , even if they fork , their shitcoin will go down in flames. People won't forget what they did.

BitMain announces they will start mining BIP91 today:
"All our #bitcoin mining pools will start running the new #Segwit2x software today"

AntPool mines their first BIP91 block:

Where can i find the source?
No core client out anywhere?

They will end up into accidental forks all over..
What a mess..

Maybe here:
https://github.com/bitcoin/bips/blob/master/bip-0091.mediawiki

That is just a wiki.

Found  at https://github.com/segsignal/bitcoin/commit/f61062c75e102eb2ae9e319b61baa12164fabe01
-        consensus.vDeployments[Consensus::DEPLOYMENT_SEGSIGNAL].nOverrideMinerConfirmationWindow = 672; // ~4.67 days
-        consensus.vDeployments[Consensus::DEPLOYMENT_SEGSIGNAL].nOverrideRuleChangeActivationThreshold = 538; // 80%
+        consensus.vDeployments[Consensus::DEPLOYMENT_SEGSIGNAL].nOverrideMinerConfirmationWindow = 336; // ~2.33 days
+        consensus.vDeployments[Consensus::DEPLOYMENT_SEGSIGNAL].nOverrideRuleChangeActivationThreshold = 269; // 80%

this is messy..

How sad it is - just another dump by the whales to make weak hands panic so they can buy some cheap coins. As in the real world economy - the rich are getting richer the poor are getting poorer. I guess we're back on the right track though and BTC is recovering...

It's the minnows' fault if they walk straight into whale hands. Anyone with a little gumption should be able to figure out what the score is. I don't have any sympathy for anyone who follows their programming.

In other news there's this - https://medium.com/@ViaBTC/statement-on-bitcoin-user-activated-hard-fork-6e7aebb67e67

If Bitmain does hard fork it's going to be a new coin with another name. I'd say that was rather positive for everyone.


Bitcoin cash even sounds like a crappy alt coin.
It can join BitcoinDark and BitcoinPlus as pointless BitcoinX coins.

Funny that I will be a holder of this Bitcoin Cash if they fork, along with the airdrops of Alts going on, I keep getting given stuff I don't really want, that I then change for 'real money' i.e. Bitcoin!

So is segwit2x looking likely?

Why are some people against it? What are the disadvantages with seg2x?


Thanks in advance.

Most don't like it because of religion.

The key is that the goal of it is to activate SegWit before August 1st with the miners. After that we can all forget it and move on.

Weak hands and gamblers shaken out! Lovely.

I have been panic buying all the way down. Cool
yeah very nice I got 1855 filled twice yesterday Smiley I hoped for 1755, but 18xx was good enough. we may still get a chance to buy lower again, august is still 2 weeks away and  volatility can be high. There is lots of FUD spreading everywhere, and big media still didnt make much coverage about Aug yet.

Thanks whales and panic sellers for the cheap coins :p

a bip 91 block just got created.


How can you tell that is a bip 91 block?
I thought BIP91 blocks would only be formed when 80% of the miners indicate that they will accept BIP91.
Why are individual BIP91 blocks being created, is it not an all or nothing, we go BIP91 or not situation?

This whole UASF, UAHF, BIPXX stuff is pretty confusing for me as a non-technical person.  Even when I look at the current state of affairs with how many nodes indicate what, I have no idea what is winning and what is the most likely end result!

Me too. I keep buying on the way down.

Sometimes, it becomes a bit complicated and confusing regarding which points to place your buy orders or maybe to tweak your system because of downwards price movements that seem to go beyond expectations - and sometimes, mistakes can take place. 

One common mistake might be to sell when you meant to buy, and for some reason (I must have been tired) I did that twice (at about the same time, and I am not really sure how it happened).

 I think what happened is that accidentally placed a buy order in the sell boxes.  I ended up selling twice at the then market rate of $1859 on Stamp. 

After the mistake I set buy orders at $1840 and $1820.... to recover from the mistake, but so far, the price never returned to those levels - so I have to just write them off.. or at least absorb them. 

I will likely leave the recovery buy orders, because it is possible that we are going to experience another leg down in this dump fest -further it seems that ETH could not be done dumping yet, correct?  An ETH low of $136 just seems like it has not sufficiently corrected, yet.. and in recent months, there seems to be some correlation between price movements of ETH and BTC - even if not exact... so it seems fairly likely to get ETH in the double digits - though not inevitable, which could cause BTC to dip down to $1500, and hopefully not below that, but you never know.
