There seems to be a larger scam effort, which I will refer to as "MBCH" , brewing around the abovementioned domains and including some more domains listed in the announcement at this URL: https://bitco.in/forum/threads/million-bitcoin-cash-fork-1-1-of-bitcoin-pro-on-chain-scaling-cheaper-fees.2670/ ...

This is awesome.

I wish it would have been announced a little earlier though, so that more presenters from unapproved/unwelcome talks could have prepared to present at this 'Free Speech conference'.

Looking forward to hearing more about the true scaling conf!

The BTCfork organization today released source code for hardfork_prototype_0 (HFP0), an early prototype of a Bitcoin hard fork (spin-off) client.

http://i.imgur.com/CB2nrW5.png 我们作为一群比特币使用者，决定对比特币进行分叉以恢复到其原来的理念，即通过在链扩容提高区块容量至全球支付平台的水平，无论有没有大多数矿工的支持。我们认为比特币能够在链扩容，并应该通过一系列硬分叉来治理。我们认为这就是比特币原来的理念：即让任何有兴趣的使用者轻松接入一个点对点的现金网络。我们的目标很简单：倡导比特币扩容并通过对比特币网络进行成功的硬分叉来做出关于比特币治理问题的强有力声明。 --- https://proxy1.zn.kindlyfire.me/bitcoinforks.bit/zh/ https://proxy...

I invite you to review and comment on draft user requirements for a Minimum Viable Fork of Bitcoin which we at https://bitcoinforks.org are developing.

hi rizlarolla, we acknowledge that a fork that wishes to compete with the main chain needs to reset difficulty to low, at least in the initial phase. There is ongoing discussion about how the difficulty should be adjusted after that, but currently I see some broad consensus within the community of f...

Who has miners gathering dust and would be willing to turn them on and point them at a bitcoin spinoff? https://bitcoinforks.org #MineBitcoinAgain We've been discussing what kind of hashing power we can gather just from old ASIC miners that have been turned off because they are no longer profitable...

Hi folks :-) I've set up a project on Transifex to get the bitcoinforks.org website translated into various languages. If you are able to assist (even just in a small part!) with translation to languages other than English, please create an account on http://www.transifex.com and join the effort! Th...

Added Telegram group to the first post. Thanks!

We are a group of Bitcoin users forking Bitcoin back to its original vision of scaling on-chain to the world; with or without miner majority. That means there will be one or more hard fork clients which will spin-off the existing Bitcoin chain to present on-chain scaling solutions (bigger blocks an...

In an ideal world I wouldn't have to worry about running a node and the expenses that come with it. So I'm in the 'go big or go home' camp. But Bitcoin has a journey to get there - it must walk before it can run. So we had better all run nodes and not just think the other guy is going to do it so we...

It's a great idea.

We need a pool to support upcoming hardforks.

What about P2Pool as a basis?
I'm not *entirely* sure, but I think it's all open source too:

I have a lot of respect for Eric but he is either uninformed or being disingenuous about the hashing of the last 1000 blocks mined. I would like to believe it is the former. While I totally agree with your point that numbers should not be misrepresented and everyone should be realistic about the si...

I see that the OP has not updated the thread since March 30, there is no website, there are no binaries, and the supposed launch date is in 6 days. Yeah, my last information is that the fork's author is still making improvements and setting up surrounding infrastructure. Safe to say that the fork d...

We can only hope that he still has commit access and reveals himself by increasing the blocksize. All Satoshi could do is offer advice one way or the other. Sure, it could affect things, but I don't think it would matter all that much. People are realizing that Bitcoin is open source for a reason -...

Try to stay informed on upcoming hard forks like SatoshisBitcoin which aim to put the control back into the hands of the users. These forks should be viewed as a kind of insurance against the substantial risk of a major economic change event, such as e.g. the "death spiral" scenario which was recent...

A fact I also wish to add to the discussion (in case someone hasn't read the bitco.in thread on this subject): This reddit user was a new account, using TOR. It has been reported by others that they have been shadowbanned when using TOR, but this does not seem to be a consistent policy on Reddit's p...

At this stage, equally upset by both. In the beginning, I was only upset by censorship (starting from /r/Bitcoin). Honestly, a scaling debate always takes time, so that's expected. But when censorship is used to push one side of that debate, it's when I get upset equally at the slow pace of scaling....

Hi Roger, I recently read the article " Roger Ver speaks out against /r/Bitcoin censorship ". Thanks for your stance against censorship. I don't know if you are aware of the recent shadowbanning of a Reddit user (/u/satoshisbitcoin) who posted information in /r/btc and /r/cryptocurrency about a full...

Pretty sure that you are seeing something called scheduled tweets . If he had been online and aware of this, he would have reacted in some form already. That might explain it, thanks for making me aware of that. Scheduled tweets can lead to pretty awkward situations and misunderstandings though, li...

Roger is not online, and has not been for over 24 hours. Guess it depends how to define "online". Here is a tweet of his from 11 h ago: https://twitter.com/rogerkver/status/676972700468924416 I would expect he is informed of the events on his subreddit and it would be appropriate for him to react s...

Hi Alena

Really happy with my Trezor so far, thank you to everyone at your company.

I am most interested in what plans SatoshiLabs has to evolve the Trezor product line to handle further cryptocurrencies?

Keep up the great work!

Thanks for working on Monero, it's awesome! From where I'm sitting, in the last few days since the Paris massacre, there has been what seems like a concerted media onslaught against cryptocurrencies. Couple of questions related to this: What technical possibilities are there at the moment for Monero...

Mike, thanks for your great work on Bitcoin, BitcoinXT, and I'm really looking forward to Lighthouse. As a simple user and prior operator of a full node, I nevertheless feel powerless compared to the miners to influence the adoption of XT. What are your thoughts about the asymmetry in the power stru...
