Bitcoin Possible Fork

Anyone following bitcoins feeling brave to punt on bitcoins in view of the upcoming ?fork

Comments

  • Not a chance. I'm happy just mining a small amount of BTC each month to accumulate slowly.

    Playing the markets is way too volatile for my liking.

    • if anyone bought in a few days, you'd be up a bit ;)

  • Fork? It was $1900 a few days ago.. US Monday to be exact it is now $2300s with no idea how it will go.. if you have or know of an assured guaranteed safe quick buy and quick sell method I am all ears but I don't want to get stuck empty handed with a bunch of bit coins when the price drops to negative zero.

    • bought my first part of a bitcoin when it hit $1900 on the weekend, and im up ~15% already. i think its still on track to keep going up, as are the various cryptocurrencies getting popular through name or mining method.

      what does the fork actually mean?

      • Who did you go through for the purchase?

          Coinmama. then i put it into my blockchain, then into exodus. soon i can buy from coinjar too.

        • @DarthAntz: Thanks DarthAntz! Were you concerned about providing the identity doco for creating the account?

          @blitz:
          naturally yes, they all do it and its becoming the norm. coinmama charge a bit extra, but i didnt have to take a selfie with my id or credit card like other sites. you can read up about why they do it, mostly to prevent money laundering and secure your id.
          time to write my alibi for when my 50+ credit card applications go in simultaneously around the world.

    Double your money! /sarc

    • So long as you don't get Forked in the process 😉

  • All the exchanges have already moved to SegWit2 so fork will go through fine IMO and BTC will roughly double in value when that happens.

  • Can I mine Bitcoin with a GTX 1050 Ti. I have a work machine that has one in, that doesn't do much.

    • No point, you can buy proper hardware to mine it efficiently, if you want to mine for USD without the hassle, try merito, however you don't own the coins, you get paid out in USD.

      • merito has a trojan built into the program… nheqminer.exe

        • It was featured crytomining blog and reddit?

          Can i read your source articles?

        • @jerjergege: I downloaded it and try to install. Cisco AMP quarantined it.

          Also

        • @pformagg: After some research, it is not a virus, your Cisco AMP might have quarantined it, but its part of a mining service for ZCASH.

        • @jerjergege: Thanks, I might put it on a non-critical network, just in case.

  • Anyone getting onto ethertokens?

  • It won't fork, we will get SegWit and price will probs continue to go parabolic. I hope you guys are in the trade? Use Bitmex.com for 100x leverage to maximize your gainZ yo!
