So Bitcoin is better than Gold? Roll Eyes

Unlike gold, for instance, Bitcoin is a convenient medium of payments around the globe, though for a limited number of transactions.

But to be fair, gold has its own advantages, too. It can be used as an outright gift, to make jewelry, and in manufacturing of certain products.

Well said, but I think as you can see in the market now almost everyone that has the BCH wants to sold it as soon as possible and its truly affecting the value, right now its dumping so fast and for me there is nothing more to expect regarding BCH as the previous investors chose Bitcoin over it.
its true and i agree with you.this post is important but i dont think that bitcoin has a competitor. BCH puped frist night a lot but today the price of BCH is so low.its now $289.13 and dumping more.I have sold all of BCH tomorrow also got a good profit.I only like to hold bitcion. so if anyone believe in BCH than he can buy now with cheap rate.

Bitcoin cash is a bitcoin offshoot created as a means of dealing with disagreements in the community over how the technology behind the currency should run.

After there is a BCC can the bitcoin survive or bitcoin will be much more up the price after this
What do you think about this?


Tons of Coinbase users fled the platform after it rejected bitcoin cash — now the $1 billion startup is in the center of a raging storm.
The digital currency startup Coinbase saw an exodus of users this week after announcing that it wouldn't support bitcoin cash, the new digital currency established last Tuesday.

But investors don't seem worried about this exodus harming Coinbase's potential unicorn status.

Reasons why Bitcoin Cash will take over Bitcoin
by

on 04/08/2017, 18:05:58 UTC
1) Bitcoin is divided into two in a programm named as “Hard Fork” that has split the fundamental currency digital community. The two rivalries of bitcoin has grown after some of the top endorsers opposed the effective way to not go forward. When the value of cryptocurrency fell by $2,700 after the summit of fork. Bitcoin Cash then started to raiseas stockholders anticipates for their primary transactions to be plop into the network. In the starting stage the price fell down, but later onwards it raised to the amount of $400.



2) How comes Bitcoin Cash (BCH)

It entered into market of cryptocurrency in an active manner flattering the most profitable tokens into its daily hand that one goes to deal. The latest update of BCH market is that it trades at $690.38. As per market capitilizations, it is predicted that it stunning around the value of $10 billion that was under the value of Ethereum and bitcoin.



3) The leading bureaucracies they why bitcoin cash grows up

Since the set up of  Bitcoin Cash, it rules the market values and stood as top competitor for Bitcoin and Ethereum. Because of this rise, Bitcoin has a deficient performance in the first trading days, rapidly surmising into limelight. The competition among Bitcoin Cash, Bitcoin and Ethereum striked the performance of other rivalries such as Litecoin and Dash. The climb of Bitcoin Cash shows increasing help for bitcoin cash that was shaped when a crew of miners moved away from the primary bitcoin blockchain. But many believed that perfect price rate for Bitcoin Cash has not fixed yet due to the reason that more number of persons are not in the capability to market it.



4) Latest Updates:

Bitcoin market is spinning in the situation following the fork and as per the recent survey, bitcoin trades at $2,735.59 that was down from the previous gain of $2,901.65.



5) Why bitcoins cropped up?

Many go with the option of keeping their bitcoins in digital wallets or exchanges instead of storing them in a storage drive. And many claimed that these areas will forward with the proposal of Segwit2x.

It also created an prediction that when this Bitcoin will leave to survive and Bicoin gets its future craze. They also no thoughts that how to create ground work for Bitcoin Cash.



6) How much it costs to?

The price of bitcoin has continued to be moderately stable to hook up with hard fork, signifying that the typical Segwit2x plan is probable to linger the main thread of bitcoin. The derivative of Bitcoin, Bitcoin Cash, is currently values to small part of the bitcoin price. In addition to this, this holds an approximate value in the early trading days. It reaches to the estimated value only when there is more rush among the users towards Bitcoin Cash.



7) Promised hopes for Bitcoin Cash.

Many traders are promoting their hopes for Bitcoin Cash trusting that it could actively hold the relative attention from both stockholders and prospectors.

Eliosoff, who is in the campaign of Bitcoin Cash claims that there is great progress in the future market value of Bitcoin. If the market value of cryptocurrency remain as Bitcoin value it can be gifted to users, business magnets and for other stockholders too.



Cool Oppositions for Bitcoin Cash:

It is a bit remodel update of Bitcoin,so there is no huge impact for the firms to add help for Bitcoin Cash. Despite this, it also creates additional work for service managers and traders. The latest payment scheme of Bitpay will not support Bitcoin Cash that has indirect meaning that many of regular vendors  who agree for Bitcoin payments may not go with Bitcoin Cash. The top marketer for Bitcoin Cash, Coinbase also says that it too doesn’t accept Bitcoin Cash.

In the end, the energetic  scenario for Bitcoin Cash comes when most of the users has to accept BItcoin Cash rather than Bitcoin.

although lots of reports, news, updates and other resources coming anywhere regarding with this matter and issues, BTC users shouldn't be worried. Due to that, developers and authorities were working to avoid misleading facts and information to keep their BTC users and owners on their feet.

Until the present time, BitcoinCash is having a very low price, this shows that the market of this altcoin is really unstable and certainly will not have a good price for the future, if you are intending invest in this altcoin should stop immediately

That's maybe because people were started to recognize BCC as alternate currency but things goes normal for BCC this time as BTC evolution since the past few years. BTC doesn't have a very high value until it was recognize by many to be useful. Let's see how far this BCC goes, as I think it has a good start also since people doesn't care the ups and downs of other alt coins anyway...

What do you like best about bitcoin?
Decentralization, transparency or easier to move?
Or just it makes you look cool? Wink

In my case, the best thing about BTC is that everyone has the chance to earn, to trade, to purchase items that doesn't need any bank partners etc. I'm not earning yet but I know BTC was made for the people who doesn't want to expose identity over internet, portability, accessibility and convenience.
But the main reason why I love BTC is to earn in a simple way other than any Jobs around that requires massive or special skills that only few people can deal with.

Hello Guys,
I'm not an expert of Virtual Currencies like BTC, BCC, liteCoins etc. but I'm just curious what is the main reason forks were made out of BTC popularity?
Do BCC is helping BTC to increase value?
Is BCC is created to rival other existing Low-end Virtual Currencies?
Do you believe another forks will exist after a few months or years?

Talk to me, please... thanks

Hello Guys,

Is this a good time to invest to a newest Crypto Currency?
Do BitcoinCash will surpass the Bitcoin's success?

Let's talk about this, thanks...

Please change your title.  It is ambiguous.  BitcoinCash IS Bitcoin.  

Please use:
Bitcoin
  • Bitcoin Core
  • Bitcoin Cash


Precision and accuracy are very important in this community.  Ambiguity hurts us all.  Especially new users.

@Raw_Dog,
I didn't see any "Ambiguous" relation between the title and the context.. or maybe we're not in the same perspective. English isn't my native language but I don't understand your point this time.
Pardon me, I'm a real Newbie and it's my only (not first) account in this forum.

I would like to add some specifications here.If I own Bitcoin, do I automatically own Bitcoin Cash too?
"If I own Bitcoin, do I automatically own Bitcoin Cash too?" - as well as I know it depends on where you stored your btc before the first of August. If it was on the exchanger or some online wallet, you probably won't get your bcc.
"Why was a fork necessary to create Bitcoin Cash?" - I think it wasn't. Something had to be done and with btc is was done indeed. Bitcoin has a segregated witness technology now, so it has solved the problems with transactions. Bitcoin cash was supposed to be a back up plan but, as too many people got interested, it was released anyway.

I thought this time is BCC is just a backup of BTC since BCC has some modifications to strengthen BTCs weaknesses. Just an observation but maybe we're right or wrong but in this case I also thought BCC developers know what they are doing or they're just trying to challenge BTC's popularity or rival other low end alt coins to keep BTC's position as Top Virtual Currency in the world.

[BCC Frequently Asked Questions] Let's Talk It Here

Frequently Asked Questions
What is Bitcoin Cash?
Bitcoin Cash is peer-to-peer electronic cash for the Internet. It is fully decentralized, with no central bank and requires no trusted third parties to operate.

Is Bitcoin Cash different from 'Bitcoin'?
Yes.  Bitcoin Cash is the continuation of the Bitcoin project as peer-to-peer digital cash.  It is a fork of the Bitcoin blockchain ledger, with upgraded consensus rules that allow it to grow and scale.

If I own Bitcoin, do I automatically own Bitcoin Cash too?
Yes.  Because Bitcoin Cash is a fork of the ledger, that means you own the same amount of Bitcoin Cash as you did Bitcoin at the time of the forking block.  However, if your Bitcoins are stored by a third party such as an exchange, then you must inquire with them about your cash.

How is transaction replay being handled between the new and the old blockchain?
Bitcoin Cash transactions use a new flag SIGHASH_FORKID, which is non standard to the legacy blockchain.  This prevents Bitcoin Cash transactions from being replayed on the Bitcoin blockchain and vice versa.

Why was a fork necessary to create Bitcoin Cash?
The legacy Bitcoin code had a maximum limit of 1MB of data per block, or about 3 transactions per second.  Although technically simple to raise this limit, the community could not reach a consensus, even after years of debate.
 
Was the 1 MB blocksize causing problems for Bitcoin?
Yes, In 2017, capacity hit the 'invisible wall'.  Fees skyrocketed, and Bitcoin became unreliable, with some users unable to get their transactions confirmed, even after days of waiting.

Bitcoin stopped growing.  Many users, merchants, businesses and investors abandoned Bitcoin. Its marketshare among other cryptocurrencies  quickly plummeted from 95% to 40%.

Does Bitcoin Cash fix these problems?
Yes.  Bitcoin Cash immediately raises the blocksize limit to 8MB as part of a massive on-chain scaling approach.  There will be ample capacity for everyone's transactions.

Low fees and fast confirmations will resume with Bitcoin Cash.  The network will be allowed to grow again.  Users, merchants, businesses, and investors will return.

Why didn't Bitcoin raise the blocksize if it was easy?
Some of the developers did not understand and agree with the original vision of peer-to-peer electronic cash that Satoshi Nakamoto had created. Instead, they preferred Bitcoin become a settlement layer.

Many miners and users trusted these developers, while others recognized that they were leading the community down a different road than expected.

These two very different visions for Bitcoin are largely incompatible, which led to the community divide.

Which Development Team is In Charge of Bitcoin Cash?
Unlike the previous situation in Bitcoin, there is no one single development team for Bitcoin Cash.  There are now multiple independent teams of developers.

This decentralization of development (and decentralization of software implementations) is a much needed and important step forward.

To moderators, I would like to express my forgiveness if this thread would be subject for deletion because I haven't seen any thread in this forum that contains the same context.
Please inform me regarding this Copy/Paste issue.
Thanks

What do you think about this?

We can't conclude or judge easily because Industries and Technologies had been rivaling since the beginning like for example:
1. Macintosh and Microsoft
2. Yahoo, Google, Bing etc.
3. Nokia, Blackberry, iPhone, Samsung etc.
etc...

These mega companies were once an idea, then developed and gain huge profits while others were merging trying to innovate and compete against other rival companies.
And so as Virtual Currencies, let's see and wait how they grow or drop or maintain the effectiveness and shares in the market.

Re: Being Unemployed Drives People to go to Bitcoin
by
kirkey
on 03/08/2017, 07:24:02 UTC
Weeks ago, I am discussing Bitcoin to my sister and my future brother-in-law (then) When they got married recently, both of them were unemployed and have been trying to get a job immediately after their marriage. Up until now they have no luck. My sister then decided to talk to me about how do I earn Bitcoins. I gladly explained it to her and then she decided to do it too. She was so happy that she is already earning bitcoin and had some extra budget while they are both unemployed. And now, she is so eager to learn more how to earn more coins.

Being unemployed drove her into engaging to Bitcoins. Maybe some people are like this. They grab Bitcoin when they are in need of money. And since that these people are now engaged in Bitcoin, I am sure that they will stay in Bitcoin and treat it as an investment even though they will have a decent paying jobs in the future.

It depends, being unemployed and at the same time if someone is trying to introduce the BTC or other Virtual Currencies and they're already earning equal or higher than average salary - is a clever start to go, otherwise, like mostly out there that are still hunting jobs on the streets or in the internet and maybe they even wasn't sure about virtual currency benefits then I can say it'll all depends on every persons interests.

Those people who partially know something about BTC but they're not capable enough on technical operation of computers and internet, it is hard to go to this kind of source of income.

Re: Mining Rig to your workplace
by
kirkey
on 03/08/2017, 06:34:25 UTC
Installing a quiet graphics card into your computer and mining on it is probably okay (assuming it's your personal desktop, and not owned by your employer). Worst case, you might be asked to stop leaving your system on all the time.

Trying to conceal a dedicated mining rig in the office, however, probably isn't the greatest idea.


Think about what you'd pay keeping it at home: (Ignoring costs to comfort, additional/reduced AC/heating costs, and other things that are difficult to estimate.)

Consider the most powerful rig you could reasonably expect to hide or have ignored by most coworkers. It's debatable (would the company notice an unauthorized system on the network, or someone constantly on the guest wifi, would they notice a spike in power costs, etc.), but I'm thinking 8x 1080ti cards on 2 PSUs mounted on a solid frame. Maybe somewhere around 1'x1'x2'. Back to estimating power costs:

Assuming each card draws about 250W when pegged, that brings us to 2000W. If we estimate a total of 100W for all other components, that brings the total power estimate up to 2100W.

Over the course of 30 days, that brings us to 1,512 kWh. Suppose that, on average, you pay $0.20 per kWh. For many miners, this would be considered rather expensive, so I'm being generous with the amount of electricity you'd expect to save. (It's in tiers, but it doesn't really make sense to say whether the mining rig was responsible for the "first" or "last" part of the total electricity use.)

This brings us to about $300 per month. Is saving $300 per month worth the possibility of receiving a reprimand? I don't think so, but I suppose it would depend on how secure you feel about your job. (I mean, if you're a tenured professor conducting "research"... Tongue)
http://thumbs.imagekind.com/3053928_650/Tenured-Professor---Pearls-Before-Swine.jpg?v=1390394280

Anyhow, back on topic. Attempting to conceal a mining rig at your workplace is probably not worth it. Ask the appropriate people for permission. (In that case, be prepared to accept a blunt "no" or "not for free".)

Keep in mind that commercial facilities generally aren't billed by the simple kWh that you're used to seeing at home. In my experience, commercial power bills tend to look quite a bit more complicated, although I've never been the employee responsible for processing them. Off the top of my head, I can't say whether or not a mining rig would have a greater impact on costs for a commercial power bill or a residential power bill. Those are details you'd have to work out at your workplace.

A sample explanation of a large commercial power bill:

It is indeed a good explanation and informative clause. Thanks

Sa palagay niyo, maganda kayang mag invest sa BitcoinCash?
May trivia na lumabas sa Facebook na kung nakapag invest tayo ng Bitcoin ng $10 (sampung dolyar) noong 2009 ay ngayon aabot na ng mahigit $1M ang share ng per investor.
Ano sa tingin niyo ang future ng BitcoinCash? kasing successful kaya siya tulad ng Bitcoin?
May lilipat na ba sa www.BitcoinCash.org ang mga members dito?

there've been many, digicash, ecash, egold, but the problem with every single one of them is they depended on a central figure to lord over it to keep it in check. they were all effectively entries on a ledger just like bank accounts or paypal accounts are.

bitcoin is the first that didn't require that which is why it's become such a huge deal. the predecessors central element went bankrupt or were shut down and that was that. that's impossible for bitcoin.

none of the forerunners were crypto currencies though.

Thank you for your good information.
There were too many virtual cash available to use for payments, remittances etc. since before and even today but the currency used is the same currency of the country under company circulation limit, unlike Bitcoin, I can't fully figure out where actually Bitcoin began, made, stored, circulate, going etc... right? This kind of information is beyond my knowledge and skills for now.
Thanks again.

Bitcoin is the first cryptocurrency being made online. After bitcoin was created, it became the prototype cryptocurrency then it was followed by doge and litecoin. Later on in time many coins have been launched some were successful and some become shitcoins due to its failure. It is normal that you cannot see it in you tube since there are no cryptocurrency before bitcoin. Bitcoin was the first to use a whitepaper and blockchain. Due to its success, altcoins or alternative coins begun to sprout trying to copy bitcoin. If you are still willing to learn more about bitcoin and its history you can actually search it in google so you can see its timeline and how bitcoin evolved as time goes by.

Thanks, now I see why Bitcoin is the first thing will came up to our minds when talking about virtual or crypto currencies...
