    We have created a Bitcoin Cash tipbot on the Telegram platform. You can already test the beta version.

    Litecoin Cash created to supposedly compete with Bitcoin Cash. The fact that people feel threatened enough by BCH to pull shit like this is making me even more confident in BCH.

    The long term BCH goal!

    Posted: 16 Sep 2018 06:29 PM PDT

    PSA: When Roger Ver says "I will advocate for whichever currency that brings economic freedom to the world, and right now that's Bitcoin Cash", he's trying to emphasize he's not a irrational cult shill. It's not to say he sees other altcoins succeed. Huge difference.

    Posted: 16 Sep 2018 08:34 PM PDT

    I look at people online who "claim" to be a BCH fan but actually aren't. Their main talking point is "I don't care about Satoshi, I only care about what brings economic freedom to the world, and if Bitcoin Cash moves in certain direction, then it's a shit coin". I'm surprised these people are openly calling BCH a shitcoin now.

    These people seem to watch Roger Ver's speech where he says "I will advocate for whichever currency that brings economic freedom to the world, and right now that's Bitcoin Cash" and interpret that as an OK sign for them to think it's not Bitcoin Cash they care about, but some esoteric abstract concept of "economic freedom".

    Roger Ver is saying this because he wants to emphasize that he's being rational, and if a rational person is rooting for Bitcoin Cash, then it must be the right choice to make. He's not saying that so bunch of idiots misinterpret it and go out saying "I don't care about Bitcoin Cash, I only care about economic freedom and I will abandon Bitcoin Cash the moment I don't like something about it because I don't believe that's economic freedom". That's a huge misunderstanding.

    If Roger actually believed in multiple coins happily coexisting like bunch of losers, he wouldn't be running bitcoin.com for gods sake, he would be running a so called "crypto hedge funds". If you're curious about what he truly thinks, I remember him mentioning at one interview where he says something like I don't think there will be multiple coins in the future because money is a network. And I agree with him. THAT's why he's completely sabotaged his own reputation to work on Bitcoin Cash services and go around all day promoting Bitcoin Cash.

    My point is, Roger gets to say things like "I love Dash I love Monero, I love Bitcoin Cash, whatever that provides economic freedom", because he's saying that as a promotional strategy because that's the only way he can make people listen in this mad world where everyone is labeling him as a mad man. But at the end of the day, most of his "stake" is in Bitcoin Cash.

    So, there's a huge difference between him saying that, and YOU--who own a couple of Bitcoin Cash and tweet about it time to time--saying it. The former is coming from a guy who completely sacrificed his reputation and is running a bitcoin cash only business, who's saying this purely to promote Bitcoin Cash, where the latter comes from those who are confused about what they're even standing up for, not to mention NOT having any skin in the game. And NO, having thousands of followers on Twitter and tweeting all day complaining doesn't count as having stake. That's just a loser life. If you truly understood the landscape of the cryptocurrency ecosystem right now and truly understood what Bitcoin Cash stands for as of today, Bitcoin Cash IS the only hope we have in achieving economic freedom, period.

    I'm just ranting because I see so many hypocritical "BCH supporters" who have started saying BCH will be "shitcoin" if some party they don't like gains influence. These people don't truly understand Bitcoin and most of these people have no skin in the game other than some speculative investments. I have personally never seen a single person who actually are building stuff on top of BCH who change their mind so easily saying "BCH will be shitcoin" if someone gains influence.

    Literally BCH is the only fork of Bitcoin left that has the potential to achieve economic freedom for the world. Just because you don't like some party, doesn't make it OK to suddenly call BCH a shitcoin.

    If you are truly annoyed about it and think it should be corrected, YOU should put your own skin in the game. Run a mining business, start a company or build an application on top of Bitcoin Cash that gains influence, or even build your own node. Think about it for a moment. If one party can take control over Bitcoin just like you think it will, doesn't that make it possible for YOU to try to take the throne too? And that kind of competition is what powers Bitcoin.

    Most people who just complain and complain don't do ANY of these things, because they're just busy tweeting all day.

    "The current system where every user is a network node is not the intended configuration for large scale. That would be like every Usenet user runs their own NNTP server. The design supports letting users just be users. The more burden it is to run a node, the fewer nodes there will be."

    As Bitcoin (Cash) usage goes up, transaction fees PLUMMET to $0.0017 per transaction! Bitcoin (Cash) can help to bank the unbanked.

    You can now use Bitcoin (BCH) to buy any kind of food delivered directly to your door in Korea!

    If BTC were the coin to challenge banks, wouldn't they be trying to "divide and conquer" BTC? It seems, instead, that's what BCH is experiencing.

    The Marco Coino app only shows one BCH accepting merchant in HK, but I already know of several others. Let’s get them added to the map! (Same with Seoul, and everywhere else!)

    TIL: Bitcoin mining uses less electricity than gold mining, paper currency printing, the banking system and also governments.

    BCH is a peer to peer electronic cash system. BTC is not.

    "The most unnoticed revelation that the stress test showed is that the increasing of the blocksize cap to 128mb as NChain suggests will be perfectly safe. The network couldn’t even make a 32mb block yet. The limit doesn’t matter."

    Gitcoin should start accepting Bitcoin Cash for bounties, or else someone or some group should create a Gitcoin alternative that accepts Bitcoin Cash.

    Gitcoin should start accepting Bitcoin Cash for bounties, or else someone or some group should create a Gitcoin alternative that accepts Bitcoin Cash. Gitcoin is awesome.

    What do you think?

    Looking for info on two testnets which nChain technical director /u/shadders333 said existed for Bitcoin SV...

    Posted: 16 Sep 2018 02:46 PM PDT

    Actually we've got two and a 3rd on the way.

    https://twitter.com/shadders333/status/1041103366754127872

    I probably missed the announcement of those testnets.

    Hoping that someone here can post the info.

    Update: if you read the linked Twitter conversation, u/shadders333 announced that

    We will publish more info on testnet soon.

    That indicates that these testnets have been private up to now. He invited those who wish to participate to contact him via DMs.

    In 2015 Jeff Garzik warned us that Bitcoin was being hot wired for settlement instead of the peer to peer electronic cash system described in the very title of the white paper. (No wonder original Bitcoin adopters are so mad)

    I really love the privacy features on Samourai wallet for BTC on Android. Is there an equivalent or a fork for BCH?
