my body is not ready for my alts to get beaten up anymore mayne

So let's say this continues. What's going to happen to alts. I fun hate that the value of alts is so tied to btc. If anything it should be a hedge

Keep going down until BTC stabilizes and stagnates

can confirm, i am one of 100k

definitely seeing a lot of people selling off as soon as they have the coin-in-hand. dis gun b gud. If it drops to 5k, im adding in

I dunno about incompetent, there was recently an exploit found related to some forked PIVX code, and they cleared that up within a few weeks as well as locking almost all the exploited funds. Was pretty swiftly handled, the hackers got pretty rekt. They've stayed on target all year with their roadmap so far too.

You have to remember, these guys are 'inventing the wheel', so to speak. This stuff hasn't been done in practice before. Many different projects who claim to be running decentralised solutions have an element of centralisation.

Plus, these guys are aiming not just to have a DEX, but to have a system of blockchain interoperability. Eventually making it so that their protocol can be used to link any kind of blockchain to another. They want the end product to be an organic system that is developed and managed by sub-communities of devs and users in future. They already have a blockchain governance model for community voting (via the Blockchain), which allows community funds to be allocated by node operator consensus (development and such can be guided by the community).

Nobody really looks at them though, because of the lack of shilling. Even less people know about their plans beyond this DEX. Even some weeks/months ago, Komodo and Charlie Lee claimed they made the first atomic coin swap. Blocknet did this about 6 months before that, and already supported atomic swaps on over 20 coins at that time. Just hardly anyone knew about this... again, because they purposefully avoid shilling their unfinished product beyond feature reveals and updates with actual substance.

They have the atomic swaps, they already have a working fully decentralised exchange for months now. Soon comes this UI, and SPV wallet support, and that is when the first true coin DEX will be released. Beyond that, even more insane ****.

There's a lot of vaporware and projects built on hype, but this isn't one of them. But because of their tactic of "don't market an unfinished product too hard", there pump hasn't truly arrived yet. It's not the best coin if you're only looking for a quick flip. It's probably my comfiest long-term hold, REQ being 2nd. 2018-2020 is my currently intended 'partial cash-out' targets for my long-term stuff, like those two.

Sorry for the wall of text, but, i find this project really interesting and promising. I wouldn't hold it so long if i didn't believe in it as a real product.

I think this is most peoples sentiment. It's definitely mine and others I know. I don't need BTC to have fast transactions, I need it to be scarce and to hold my value long term. Right now I don't need BCH for cash, maybe one day it will be but not yet, but I do like BTC for stored value which is why I believe this is just temporary fud and BTC will climb again soon.

Fomoing into a speculative asset that has a market cap of $120B. What could go wrong?

MGO is holding up nicely.

I think most people who first get into crypto lose money. Think about why the majority of people get in. They see huge gains, and want to hop on the train. These rallies are usually followed by corrections. Most people don't want to buy their first piece of bitcoin when it's tanking.

It's been brewing for weeks. I've also read it's deliberate manipulation to force S2X coin to tank off the bat so it fails. That wouldn't be a bad thing but then Bcash would see a big correction too.

This

And more NEO/OMG

"Bitcoin Cash has been on an upward trajectory since last week, after its developers announced a hard fork to optimize its mining algorithm. The hard fork is to be implemented operationally on Nov. 13th."

Ahhh I see now.

Can someone explain if this is possible. Can BTC improve scalability issueswithoutforking?

Yes, the key word you are missing is CONTENTIOUS fork.

Forking is natural as the technology iterates, it just needs to be planned, wanted, and unanimous.

too afraid to post on your other account?

Do we actually need BTC to improve scalability?

Other coins do it better right off the bat, BTC can be digital gold without scaling to buy your pumpkin spice latte

EDIT: apparently ELASTOS (blockchain based OS using the internet) is working with NEO, trying to wrap my head around stuff but the goal looks to be to make blockchain safe from malware and keyloggers ETC

I.E SAFE FOR THE LAY MAN TO TRANSACT WITH CRYPTOS AND STILL WATCH PORN AND DOWNLOAD DODGY SOFTWARE ON HIS PC

at least, that's how i'm interpreting what little i've read so far, will post more if I work anything else out (non-CS brah so don't expect miracles)

Holy chit brahs

you have people that dont want to fuk with it:; the immutability, code is law type

thats why they fork

segwit2x was supposed to tidy up the blockchain + increase blocksize

segwit1x was just tidying it up

IF btc was having those issues then it sounded like b2x was the solution. however. since its larger blocksize businesses were more interested in it, which as jamalfudge has said gave way to "centralization" sort of

anyways, i would doubt it due to peoples penchant for "immutability"

Yes, but there would be a new currency that isn't BTC right? And I guess that would just take the value and BTC would fall. That's what BCH advocates are saying is/will happen.

Totally agree with this, people haven't thrown this much money into bitcoin because they want to pay for their groceries with it, they do it for speculation and as a store of value imo. As you say, let the other alts that actually scale well take care of the rest..

So BTC is crashing, BCH is mooning.

Various posts and articles on crypto FBI groups are saying that BTC is basically going to die out and shut down within weeks and BCH will take the lead as the Bitcoin going forward.

Has anyone else seen that posted?

My WTC gains from the other day are being eaten alive by BTC bleeding.

All of this FUD is making me uneasy being that I'll be gone for 10 days and in that time my portfolio could essentially lose half or more of its value with so much tied into BTC.

Wat do?

Good job getting out when you did. I was staring at my screen at 82k sats waiting to sell on the next mini pump but it tanked and can't get past 77k

The problem is alts are tied to BTC thru the sell orders. As BTC loses value....these sell orders get bought with cheaper BTC causing a domino spider web effect bringing down any coin traded with BTC unless its a small cap one.lol I just made $700 off bitconnect BS.Thanks Munchene brah. You put my faith back in. I was surprised u guys were in it, That hack scared the chit outta me, esp with the wallet closed for weeks and the FUD that it will dump once deposits are made. Are u on their slack?

Become a Tether **** or go all in to BCH

Or maybe don't believe the hype.

i would only get into bch if i got in early or the fork coins. its going to take a lot to unseat btc

not to mention if its even close you know btc pundits are gonna come in and fuk with it

Huh what are these FBI groups you're talking about? Why in the heck is BTC going to be "shut down?" sounds like made up FUD.

You staying at the bottom of the ocean or what? Just check it a few times per day when you're on vacation.

Time to get intogoodalts will be soon I think

OK that is good because the miners dumped it last monthwait 24 hours at least for the weekend to be over. Unless ur trading it off fast.lol Im 99% sure that is that POS scammer cryptolambo that tried to scam us and got a few brahs. He hates me because I can tell its him always.

Don't panic sell

It's like I said... and again, just my opinion... but this is manipulation at its finest. So much FUD and so much money being made by all of this, but I stand strong on saying that I believe this will all blow over and BTC will still remain king... it's gonna go just like how it has before
