They needed 95% for segwit2x as I understand it, though that may have just been so miners didn't get rejected by the network and the network doesn't propagate properly making for other complications.

If you own a coin, you can manipumanipulate it's value. Search "pump and dump" scams. Ever looked at the altcoin price and seen that Dogecoin is 100 sats and within a week it has fallen to 10 sats?

To overtake bitcoin they can just force the value of bitcoin cash up. If they own large amounts of it then its quite easy to send the value up by making deficits and surplesses to correlate with other coins that have increased.

The last point is the reason why no one else's split in two. When you have a fork, both coins are incompatible to each other due to replay protection.

They hosted 2 nodes therefore (at minimum). Pointing 3% at the bcc compatible node and 22% at the rest. (They own btc.com from that chart also).
Hopefully they'll fix it. I tried withdrawing and got nothing. The market is also broken. They may end up just restoring everything from a backup if they have one (hopefully they do).

Thanks! This forking game is starting to make more sense to me.

I don't think the market is broken. S9 price dropped and I finally managed to buy in with my old buy orders I had:


EDIT: Ok, right after I saw my bought (about 13 hours ago) S9 , now it looks kinda broken... Maybe I broke it! lol
