RE: The Upcoming Bitcoin Cash (Bcash) Hardfork - I Am Very Skeptical
That does not seem like a very solid coin.
I am a little active on yours.org, so I do hold some BCash, but only what I earned from writing, but this does really shake my faith in BCash.
This article does not reflect the reality of the situation. It is mostly FUD written by an anti-bitcoin cash guy. it contains nothing specific. I bet this guy can't even read code.
Anyway, the bitcoin cash community is in total agreement with this hard fork and it has been well tested so it should go very smoothly and will make bitcoin cash even better... else why do you think the price would have gone up?
People betting with their money are more serious than a cheap writer ...
Well you provided no counter arguments to the one he brought up. Like the unneeded blocksize for example.
All you do is shittalking him instead of bringing up reasons why it is wrong what he says.
The blocksize is meant to increase way ahead of demand. Not in panic "when it is needed", but as soon as possible. Satoshi eventually chose to introduce it as a limit against temporary attacks, not for it to be used as a centrally planned quota.
The OP codes there is still some debate in the community about, but most are onboard with re-introducing many (not all) of them. There have been tests run, as there are quite a few knowledgeable developers in the community. (See Bitcoin Unlimited and Bitcoin ABC teams, as well as independent researchers)
I've not seen Gavin Andresen criticize the re-introduction of the specific OP-codes, at least so far. Even if he does, he is not the sole developer. But a lot of people obviously respect his opinion.
If you are active on Yours, you could have learn a lot about Bitcoin Cash and your faith would not be affected.
The fork is a planned upgrade. Bitcoin Cash will continue to fork like this, at least one more time if not more to make sure that blocksize increases a long time ahead of demand. (As it used to in Bitcoin in the early days).
("BCash" is a slur introduced by a coordinated diversion campaign that also included a social media spam campaign. It's not a good name, considering the many previous forms of e-cash with similar names and the company with the same name.)
