No, hard forking DAA to draw in hashrate is an attack
However, that same strategy is what dooms BCH to the current trend of slow decline
Miners know that the DAA is going to mint new currency at high rates, which causes the coin to inflate (https://fork.lol/reward/inflation)) through the very action of mining. Nobody wants to hold onto a coin that they know has a natural tendency to lose more value the better you do your job, so miners will try to sell their BCH as soon as they mine it, slowly leaching value out of BCH.

Stop talkimg shit.

The EDA made it so that it's possible for miners to jump between the two chains without the network having to take 2016 blocks to adjust difficulty. If miners jump on board BCH and start mining quicker than 1 block every 10 mins, difficulty will go up for the next block. It goes up or down based on the average of the previous 144 so hashpower can move between the two chains. This is good for BCH and makes BTC completely vulnerable to getting stuck with a high difficulty, long block times, uncofirmed fees and potentially having to wait 12 weeks to retarget difficulty if block times draw out 1hr plus.

Once all the hashpower makes the next difficulty go up, miners are going to ditch btc. You have been warned.

>> No.4388807

Only reason bch could get another pump is this is we are at wave C

>> No.4388877

Satoshi is great and all but having to wait 2016 blocks to adjust difficulty was a pretty big oversight. I guess he didn't foresee competing crypto currencies stealing away vast amounts of hashpower. BCH difficulty adjustment algorithm is far superior. The fact that core never fixed this terrible flaw is just further proof that they are garbage programmers.

This. Hopefully the weekend is good like last time. Fridays was one of the best days of my life, it was Veteran's day so I had the day off, I had most of my holdings in BCH because I believe it in more than BTC and it's a lot cheaper than BTC while also being Bitcoin. I was dancing and shit the entire day watching it go from $600 to $700 to $800 to $900 all the fucking way to $2700 even surpassing Ethereum. That was a roller coaster thrill ride. I held during that entire time, and I've sold off like almost half of my BCH now, fuck.

I kinda regret selling, but at the same time the price is dropping, so shrug.

As much as going weakhands right now could bite me in the ass, this is overselling a bit. Nothing will ever be like BTC ever again, thinking anything will be 'the new bitcoin' in terms of profits is naive.

BCH isn't the new bitcoin, it literally is bitcoin. what you're seeing right now is a struggle between the people who wrested control of bitcoin from Satoshi (core, blockstream, institutional money) and the people who want to see the coin restored to the original whitepaper (most of the miners, Roger, a lot of people who worked on the coin back in 2010)

>> No.4389360

in a perfect market, game theory of the mining difficulty dictates all the value will flow to BCH due to chain death

the math and game theory logic forced my hand to buy this coin very heavily near the all time low of BCH/BTC pairing

the black swan event last saturday night only confirmed to me. I was too slow to sell the top plus bittrex kept crashing on me, but honestly it was an infinite feedback loop and BTC was going to zero, fast, if they hadn't pulled the plug on the bithumb servers.

I'm still up nicely even at todays lows of 0.15 and will be holding for new exchange pairings and hype cycles.

the destruction this will cause will be so massive right? or will we have a few bear months and then everyone gets over it and buys the new bitcoin, or eth takes over or whatever?

or as I fear, the market is too rigged and 'they' will never let the chinese get away with this

If the TA wizards are right we are in for more pain or slow bleed on the BCH/USD pairing to ~$800 levels before another moonshot to 3k

Honestly this sounds a lot like the "ETH will flippen BTC" from a year ago. Or two? Time moves too fast.
The only people actually thinking this is a war are those with a vested interest. In all likelihood BCH remains as an inverse BTC. Where do you go when BTC dips? BCH. And vice versa.
It's a much safer haven than other coins with fundamentally different applications.

Fucking lol. How many times can these crooks defer until the last dupe has cut their losses? All week it has been "8pm tonight! / When you wake up tomorrow! / In 4 hours! / On Friday!"

Why make these dumb claims at all? For a single, half-day pump, they have continually and repeatedly undermined the credibility of the BCash marketplace as a free and uncorrupted place to do business. Why does the community wage war on another - completely distinct - token? Why do they make silly promises made on nothing? Why do they continually rely on unsubstantiated and anonymous pastebin fanfics to price propagandise?

I can only think of one reason that answers them all: desperation.

Who have the CEOs got involved with? Who is breathing down their necks, demanding their money back?
