I sold 54 coins... about half of my stash. I don't feel good about it at all guys Embarrassed

I really want this BU mess to be over with, but at the moment there's too much uncertainty and lots of panic (not from me, but others). Some people are "voting" for segwit by dumping their coins hoping to punish the miners (Jihan Wu) into supporting segwit.

I want my bitcoins back..... Cry

Sounds to me like you actually did panic

I probably did... but also took a calculated risk, I dont think the risk/reward of the situation is reflected at a price of $1000+ right now. I took a bet that there is a higher chance that I can get back in lower than miss out on a rally with the current climate

You know that Core is getting desperate when they are resorting to DDoS'ing BU nodes.

They are also DDoS'ing bitcoin.com

and who do you think might have been relentlessly spamming the blockchain for months on end? hmm. i can guess one bunch who might have some type of agenda.

In the mean time looks like BU is losing nodes.

Hashrate is the more relevant measure:

but again all that is is signalling. there's a whole bunch of difference between telling the world 'hey, i love unlimited' and actually going through with it. no doubt this wu guy would, but he'd need alot more people who are more likely to waver.

So is Bu going to fork? Or has the alt coin designation by exchanges stopped further if any
more share. I've no clue, just wondering if after this "wiggling about in angst" if we are
just back to 2 more years of 1mb blocks and status quo "stagnation?

Seems that both BU is stuck with too low adoption to occur. Also Segwit is stuck with too low adoption to occur (by miners at least).
(stuck around 65% core blocks mined and 35% BU blocks mined)

Thus, neither will occur until one gives up or there is compromise. That is creating part of the confusion that will continue to exist - but hopefully the FUD around BU forking will dissapaint some.

Hashrate is the more relevant measure:
http://xtnodes.com/#bitcoin_classic_hashrate

Hashrate is the irrelevant measure. There are two cases, either one has 50%, or he doesn't.
In the first case bitcoin forks into bitcoin and another chain that lives or dies in relation to its design parameters.
In the latter case, bitcoin goes on.

In both cases, bitcoin goes on.

Whereas if nodes are lost, the extreme scenario is for bitcoin to be completely lost. Still, the idea will be with us forever.

So, nodes are important, hashrate is not.

Well here is an interesting and positive comment and I agree with him:

https://bitco.in/forum/threads/gold-collapsing-bitcoin-up.16/page-932#post-36337

As an outsider and investor I think this is a hiccup (power struggle) that will be over soon. Obviously some markets, i.e. Bitfinex make a lot of waves to get more business during volatility. In the end BTC is great and it is useful and it will prevail!

nodes don't really mean a great deal. it's a vote that costs a few bucks a month to run on a vps for many people. many core nodes are just as meaningless.

not too sure why there is much doom and gloom.

Sure BU is a "threat" but bitcoin has faced many threats before and in the longer run it has weathered them all fairly well.

Why is Bitcoin unlimited a threat, its just competition and bitcoin has plenty of alternatives already in operation that would be happy to take over. The threat would be from the number of miners who would switch and prefer to support that alternate system. I guess that part is new as most coins start from nowhere.

Will we definitely end up with 2 tokens in equal amounts on 2 addresses, price wise that just seems to suggest the price halves and value overall is the same. Some confusion as people switch or decide which coin to hold or use but not as bad as it might appear?

I would rather they make transactions compete in fees they pay for priority. This will then give the smallest transactions business to alt coins where it probably belongs ? The best solution is the most natural self adjusting. Does my opinion mean I should sell BU if I get any?

Wait a minute. Is BU another bitcoin or just a mining software cause I thought it was a software used to mine bitcoin.

Finally, back to normal?

It could go to 700$ then to 1500$ within 5 months. It seems like a good time to sell and buy back from 950 USD to 850 USD.

No one know when the price of bitcoin will get back up and it could get back up anytime. But, I think the price move down to $994 due to the news of bitcoin splits in the wake of a hard fork which involves some duplicate of bitcoin going on in the system.
