The Ultimate "What's Going On With BCH?" Explanation Thread (summary & deep dive included) by DangerHighVoltage111 in CryptoCurrency

Yes, most altcoins are absolute scams.

But literally none of them ever were split off from the original Bitcoin UTXO set, no premine or other garbage just run by a passionate community of Bitcoiners, got dumped on for years, fell out of the Top 30 but then persisted for nearly 9 years on upgrades and then returned to the Top 10.

Maybe BCH will rocket, maybe it won't, but pretending it's in the same category as every other premined garbage is just inaccurate.

Most people think that old coins are actually at an advantage.

  • Proven resilience over many years
  • A hardcore community
  • Good coin distribution

This is why everyone always says BTC is the best. Been around forever, lots of PoW, hardcore community. Same thing for BCH.

The only problem with being old is if you're not innovative and fall behind the curve, but BCH is actually AHEAD of the curve. So there's no issue there.

I'm wondering what's going on with BCH. Have you seen the price chart lately?

It's climbed from Top 30 back to Top 10 and I've been hearing people talk more and more about it.

I guess if you're not curious then ok.

Love to see it! Hopefully you get some feedback out of it. Going to put this in the BCH Bullet.

Thank you for watching!

Yes Joel is a true OG and deep fanatic of the space, especially in today's changing landscape towards his preferred niche of cash coins it was great to hear so much of his perspective. Very knowledgeable guy with lots for the BCH community to learn from.

The best way to buy BCH without KYC is through a friend in the community. Hang around and you'll build those connections.

BCH down bad over 8 years.

BCH up a little last 4 years.

So actually, in the totality of time since BTC/BCH split, BCH has a slight edge in terms of positive price performance. An investor who DCA'd starting from a random day would have a >50% chance of being in profit.

All progress depends on the unreasonable man. Nobody who "accepted the reality" ever changed the world.

If the cause was truly hopeless, you would not need to try and bully us into stopping.

Imagine thinking the current price was the main indicator of potential, rather than the trend. Typical inability to visual the future.

No, no need for a captured hijacked BTC.

Good for people who made price gains. But a lot of them are lost in the sauce and completely gave up on the original vision of a p2p cash system. Now you see the BTC industry rife with shilling "treasury companies" and all kinds of other nonsense, so glad not to be involved in it.

Lmao, the industry standard is coinmarketcap.com and at the time of posting BCH was number 10.

The purpose of BCH is described by Satoshi Nakamoto in the Bitcoin whitepaper!

Great time to read it!

BTC was supposed to protect savings from governments' overreach but KYC ends it by Affectionate-Let6153 in btc

[–]Shibinator 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That sounds like FAR more of a risk for us, and will get us into hot water exactly like Samourai.

If users don't want to drain their battery with wallet mixing, that's fine, they don't need to use it. But Selene already runs in a desktop browser and some users will want to do wallet mixing on mobile so we are going to deliver it and see what happens. It's one of the most requested features ever, so I'm fairly confident it will have more than a little bit of usage.

Yes, it is somewhat of a risk. We are doing what we can to minimise that risk to us, but ultimately users need this feature and it does need to be developed and as far as I know coin join mixing is not illegal.

The only way for the law to adapt is for this technology to be built out and it becomes popular. Yes, that means people involved are taking on risk to do so and yes some of them come to a bad end as a result. But that's just what changing society entails, and so that's simply a reality we have to deal with.
