They forked BTC and made BCC. This means I had some BCC I never paid for, so I just put it in an exchange and brought some BTC with it. Now, I only had 0.3 BTC but there must be with loads who have a darn sight more and who got a LOT of BCC for nothing. This raises some questions.
- Can it be good for the crypto economy if a load of money suddenly appears out of nowhere?
- How much BCC immediately got converted back into BTC?
- What's to stop people forking again, just to make a killing like this?
Was BCC good or bad in this respect?
It is just some people have different purpose and ideal so they can't agree with bitcoin, they choose to make a new one. If there's no demand then the new coin worth nothing. I don't know how much but i guess it's a lot. If this kind of forking want to stop, there will have to be a decision that every people agree, which is very unlikely.
