and still, i also just dont get why you would need to transfer something. if it's there on your private keys already, why not just give it. why is that extra outgoing transfer needed for them in order to give you your ubtc. that rule just does not make sense to me.
jeff garzik is an enthusiastic data gatherer. i guess that means he can mark your card and trace your real bitcoin with that much more ease.
also they still want to keep the inactive balances on their fork so that's the only way to check that it is active.
