Just saw this website

http://pieifo.com/pages/endefault.html

it shows upcoming forks and also some airdrops. About the Airdrop section though, when you click on it you'll see that it has bitcore, it it is listed as a "scam". IMO, this is total bullshit, why has bitcore got such a bad name? coinmarketcap being dicks and now this. Really shits me.

maybe devs can email them to try to explain why this isn't a scam.

The reason that they believe Bitcore is a scam is as follows:

Claim BTX need user to import their private key, extremely dangers.

Everyone in the crypto space is told don't give out your private keys to anyone. So, it's only logical that by asking for the private key, Bitcore is making a lot of people nervous. People would rather err on the side of caution than allow people to lose their coins. This might explain why BTX price has been falling at such a rapid rate. At this rate, it will probably continue dropping all the back to $1. It was only last month that many people lost their Bitcoin trying to claim Bitcoin Gold. BTG had and infected wallet on their site and when people imported their private keys into the infected BTG wallet, they got their Bitcoins stolen. Find out what method the other coins i.e. Bitcoin Cash utilized to allow people to claim their coins and follow the same method. In order to stem the flow and regain positive momentum with the price of BTX, this issue needs to be resolved ASAP!

The coins are already burned to BTC addresses.. so the owner have to use their privkeys to control them.

BTG was shaddy from the start. No surprise there was an infected tool.

I had to use my privkeys to claim Bcash. The bip39 words, derivate keys,... a total hassle. I could have pasted my keys in their tool. It could have been infected too...

As stated MANY TIMES, you can MOVE your BTC to a new wallet, and claim the forked coins with ZERO btc in the old (already snapshooted) wallet.

BTC fees too high to move your 17.000 usd coin to claim 0.5 BTX ?? 100% agreed. No need to rush, the claiming has no deadline.. You can claim when BTX moon. The coins are already yours. ( Hello CMC!)

Now, if there´s a campaign against BTX (what do they fear??) they can continue to spread FUD and lies.
