Antpool, one of the most important mining sources ever started to shill bitcoin cash non-stop mode:

I never said the chinese guys are "philantropic"
I even said that they will benefit greatly from mining the new coin because their hardware has an advantage of over hardware for mining it.
Both groups are in this for the money.
One censors and controls the discourse, the other one has a lot of hashpower, specially in the BCC chain.

I don't care if you chose to buy BCC or BTC. In fact, Ethereum is a great conservative choice for these turbulent times.

But for some reason I hate ETH (not saying you can't make money from it though).
The devs have a ton of ETH, and they caused the flash-crash the other day. This just doesn't seem so likely with BTC or BCC.
But still, a good conservative choice.
Maybe even better, put it all on USDT?
But then if you don't have BTC and there is another fork, you miss on having more coins. If you had BTC before august 1st and held now, you'd have $5000 for the combo.

Put it this way, you will see the catalog filled up with pink wojaks like you have never seen before

I don't believe you.

I'm ok with that.

>I even said that they will benefit greatly from mining the new coin because their hardware has an advantage

I know, that's why I put philanthropic between quotation marks, it was intended as sarcasm. In this situation I think it's best just to hold your BTC tight, or like you said, exchange for fiat.
Imagine a squabble like this in a major company like Mercedes. One guy thinks the company is headed in the wrong direction because they want to keep diesel engines, while he wants to implement electric motors. Instead of working it out internally he decides to create his own startup called "Mercedes ELECTRIC". Would you buy a car from that guy? I wouldn't.

Cool.

sorry for not getting the sarcasm.

The problem is not if I trust that guy or not, I trust their motivation though. Money.
So I know that he will pump this up as far as he can to get miners to switch and destroy BTC.
The question is not if I agree with it, but if I think he can do it.
And maybe he can do it.

To be honest guys. There is a shitload of shilling going on Veeky Forums. But I tried to make a post on /r/bitcoin and I immediately saw the censorship about Bitcoin Cash even though I didn't post anything concerning. Just some questions. Then I went on to read some posts from theymos, and I am now convinced BTC is fucked.

Nice fucking link faggot now my twitter swapped languages

"Sarcasm doesn't read well" -Steve Carell

That's exactly why I'm not switching to BCC. They're trying everything they can to destroy BTC, and don't give a single shit if countless people lose all their money in the process. That is pure evil in my opinion. I agree that the centralisation of bitcoin is far from ideal, and goes against all its principles, but these hostile takeover attempts are not the solution.

again, I'm not agreeing with them, or with anybody. I'm just trying to take profit from it.
Which in this case, at least for a while, means hoarding BCC.

holy shit, you are trading coins and actually think that you have something to say about morals? This is still money we are talking about, don't act like you have something to say about morality when you are basically playing with money.

fuck off back to lebbit

To me the bcc guys are playing the game according to the rules of free market. They chose what they think was a better solution, which btw ia closest to the original bitcoin, and chose to mine it, that's fine. But the btc guys, with cencoeship and personal attacks and all that, are not fair at all.

By getting into this game you know exactly where the money comes from and where it goes. Don't play stupid and be a moralfag.

There is nothing morally wrong with trading. If I believe an asset will gain in value I buy, when I make profit that's my reward for the risk I took. What is happening now is market manipulation, and that is morally wrong.

I wonder if in psychology there's a term for behavior like yours. You are getting angry at people making moves because you fear making the moves yourself.

So is funding and supporting all criminal acts known to man, but here we are discussing morality.

>So is funding and supporting all criminal acts known to man,

What do you mean?

yeah, I am holding eth and have no skin in the game, but nothing would make me happier than seeing BTC crushed. blockstream needs to die.

What do you think these coins are primarily used for?

Making money?

Money laundering and purchasing illegal things/actions

>There is a shitload of shilling going on Veeky Forums.
See

Get a load of this faggot!

Cute. Do you also think knive and gun manufacturers and sellers are responsible for homicides?

The only people losing money are the greedy bastards who sold their hedges, and those same greedy bastards refused to do their own research and blindly instead followed blockstream's propaganda.

As they say, fools and their money are easily parted.

blindly followed*

Yeah, fuck those people who bought bitcoin after august 1.

if everyone outside of websites controlled by core is saying the same thing, and websites that are controlled by core are heavily censored, what does that mean?

its not even like some weird rumor. its a very straight forward, logical, simple thing to say "if miners mine the more profitable chain then bitcoin will die."

this ia different from the miners switching to eth because of application specific hardware... so this is a legitimate concern and a textbook black swan event

you do realize that segwit2x is not supported by core and heavily shilled against on r/Bitcoin right? if it happens, core loses control of bitcoin, because an "alt coin" called segwit2x just jacked 90% of the hash rate.

We arent arguing with you because we don't have answers, but because your statements were totally stupid

Oh, ledgerX is going to work with bch? No? Then fuck off, nobody cares about mining power, that race ended years ago.

The actual race that bch isn't even trying to compete is about regulation, user and merchant adoption and brand

Keep telling lies but nobody is going to buy a bch for 750$

my statements? i made one statement, a matter of fact, so what are you going on about?

yes, hashrate matters because of the full btc blocks. a small dip in hashrate causes an exponential network slowdown because of full blocks. it's called a death spiral attack and is a new attack vector created by the 1 mb limit.

also most people here are into alts and really, really want btc gone because its toxic maximalism. so its not a bunch of paid shills but rather every single alt coin holder fapping to the idea of btc dying

It's the same /r/btc nutjob/Roger Ver shill spamming all over Veeky Forums

He thinks we give a fuck about any reddit here.

As long as 80% of the hash power stands firm with BTC, Jihan can go mine whatever he wants.

fork.lol/pow/hashrate

well well well
seems like the flippening is on its way

Im pretty sure it's called projecting

Whats a pink wojak

Hi new friend

>Antpool started to shill
>started to

Antpool belongs to Jihan Wu you fucking subhuman pajeet shill

they all come back eventually... to their daddy.

at least fucking drop the fucking reddit spacing you goddamned pajeet shill, this is so fucking cringeworthy

...

>I'm still on time r...right?
Yes.
You missed the smart money phase, but now we are in the crypto version of 'institutional money' phase.

(public money is when your idiot coworker starts to buy after he reads about it on facebook)

great comeback there
you must be proud

aren't

you?

are you

proud?

I dont know on normal sites it is pretty much split down the middle, on sites controlled by core it is censored and on sites controlled by Jihan (like Veeky Forums) it is extremely against BTC.

been watching fork.lol/
pretty nuts to see BCC vs BTC hashpower switch over like that

How come everyone thinks that the flippening will happen only because miners don't want BTC anymore?

What about the normies that just buy BTC and don't keep up with tech news? BTC isn't going anywhere any time soon, because the currency that normies have literally flipping to another one with their current one becoming worthless, is the biggest sure-fire way to ensure that crypto is held back another decade.

Anyone with btc from before the fork can generate their bcc wallet with the exact same number of coins in, so no.
