Bitcoin split in two, say hi to the new Bitcoin Cash

This shouldn't be an issue. Bitcoin Cash will simply join the ranks of the 100 or so other cryptocurrencies that no one uses....

Bitcoin should and will die.

This is nothing more than an attempt to circumvent the US dollar (among other nation's currencies) and operate without impedance on the black market. Bitcoin is such a scam and it still has yet to demonstrate a viable and provable, ableit practical application of "blockchaining"


Bitcoin has no place in this world. It's artificially inflating its value all the time.


I'm sure the anti-social and socially awkward nerds will ring in and defend this but with what ammo? Bitcoin is a farce.......plain and simple. It only benefits the extortionists.

If you have bitcoin, and your account disappears, you then have nothing.

I can trade with whatever currency I desire. You have no say in the matter do you?

Amazing how there is a lot of mixed feelings about a form of currency that's "digital" or "physical". Just my opinion, I do prefer a physical form of tender that I can hold. Precious metals. I'm not advertising. Hoarding Silver and Gold is a good investment. Yes, it also has its risks like any other stock market.

I honestly don't know if this comment was satire, but it still gave me a good laugh.

If you don't trust digital currency that can be used for crimes, then have fun trying to buy your groceries with gold coins. The only differences that crypto currencies have from governmental ones is that inflation is limited and corrupt government or pseudo-government agencies have no control. That, and they are newer and still suffer from growing pains such as slow transactions and convoluted buying and selling procedures.

Personally, I have big hopes for bitcoin cash. Going from 1MB to 8MB might seem like it would only increase speeds by 8x, but by reducing the backlog the actual transaction speeds will be far faster than that. I forget the term for it, but there is a whole science to backlogs and lines...and there is a tipping point where adding or removing just one or two percent capacity can decrease or increase waiting times several fold. 8x the capacity should make bitcoin cash fast enough for day-to-day use. This would be very bad for the world's biggest extortionists (the credit card companies).

Cryptocurrencies aren't going to be relevant in 20 years just as they aren't relevant now. While some anti-government peeps have faith in this crap that is meant to ONLY circumvent the national currencies, it's not enough to last.

As a network architect and security engineer, I see this as a fad for the most part and driven by losers that are tired of "government intervention". Yeah.........you're all the same peeps that believe the government officials of the United States actually blew up our own WTC buildings in 911. Conspiracy theory-propagating putzes!


Cryptocurrencies have no place in ANY economy unless they have a tangible benefit from the "chaining" and, now there is very little capitalized benefit other than "ledgers" which no one has any clue how to pragmatically implement to obtain some sort of benefit.

Right now social deviants are the only ones with faith in anything cryptocurrency.


And yes..........I'm knocking all ya'll but we'll revisit this in a decade so I can yell "SEE, I TOLD YOU SO"


I know I'm such an asshole but in a world of stupidity, it's called for.
