Topic: Whats going to happen to bitcoin in the coming months? - page 2. (Read 1098 times)
nChain is Bitcoins future. Big blocks. No segwit posion. Bullish.
Can someone please clarify what will happen on August 1st? Will there be a soft fork or hard fork on that date?
What is Segwit 2x and BIP148?
MASF, MAHF?
What is this manipulated mempool data?
Where do I checkout the signalling status? Is it like that previous litecoin reaching 75% status and needs to be locked in for 2 weeks?
Also what's happening in mid-November im hearing?

1. Segwit2x is Segwit + 2MB hard fork which will activate Segwit, while BIP 148 is User Activated Soft Fork which is also for activating Segwit. Segwit2x will start signalling on July 21 and BIP 148 on August 1. If we go by current majority then Segwit2x would activate Segwit before August 1 so BIP 148 most probably would not be deployed. If you are wondering about a chain split in August then it is very less likely going to happen.
2. MASF, Miner Activated Soft Fork, MAHF, Miner Activated Hard Fork. Both these are forks activated through miner signalling, not like UASF, activated by flag day or node enforcement.
3. Mempool can be manipulated by spamming, dust transactions, done by some crazy miners to manipulate fee.
4. https://coin.dance/blocks, currently undergoing maintenance
5. Once Segwit2x activates Segwit, first part is over, the second part is 2 MB hardfork which would be around November (90 days after Segwit activation).
One way or the other Segwit would get activated by August, but nothing concrete could be said about HF at this point in time.
Very well said and explained, and to add also I've heard (correct me if I'm wrong though) that when August 1 comes there might be a possibility that bitcoin will be divided in two. And we will just have to wait for that few more weeks until it'll be activated.
