Grifter Posted December 4, 2017 #1 Posted December 4, 2017 I just got an Email from qoinpro about this upcoming bitcoin forks... And i just want to share it to you guys.... The next publicly announced Bitcoin fork, "Super Bitcoin" is scheduled for December 16/17, 2017 (block #498,888) though may arrive 1 or 2 days sooner than expected. It is looking to add smart contracts, zero knowledge proof and the lightning network as well as bigger blocks. It is certainly ambitious, but if the fork happens and passes our tests, we will support it under the SBTC ticker symbol. The ratio of SBTC you will receive for every BTC in your QoinPro wallet is 1:1, meaning if you have 2.7 BTC you will get 2.7 SBTC (just like BCH and BTG). More information about SBTC can be found here: http://supersmartbitcoin.com/ When should I deposit the Bitcoin? As soon as possible, and no later than when the fork is scheduled. All claims are all handled at the same time within 24-48 hours of the fork. There is no minimum and there is no maximum. However, if you are going to deposit more than 10 BTC, please let us know in advance. Bitcoin Diamond Update We have yet to receive the full-node software from the founds of Bitcoin Diamond. As a result, we cannot test replay protection, generate address or process deposits and withdrawals. Until that time, BCD cannot be used, however claims are processed at the 1:10 ratio. 1 BTC will result in 10 BCD (even post-fork claims). Bitcoin Cash Plus At block #501,407 (around January 2, 2018), a coin split is scheduled to occur and result in a chain that we will support under symbol #BCP. More information can be found here: http://bitcoincashplus.org/ B2X community reattempt The now infamous Bitcoin SegWit2x for got cancelled and a reattempt by a minority of the miners failed due to a coding error. Now, a group of enthusiasts are going to try again around block #505,000 scheduled to occur on January 28, 2017. Tokes are available on EhterDelta and their Twitter can be found here: https://twitter.com/Btcsegwit2x Other forks: Ethereum Classic (ETC) has a scheduled fork on December 12, 2017 though that is not likely to result in competing chains. It is more akin to an upgrade changing their monetary policy and adding privacy features in the form of stealth addresses. Even more forks: There are rumors out there about additional Bitcoin forks (Bitcoin Bronze, Bitcoin Silver, Bitcoin Platinum and Bitcoin Uranium), however so far they haven't provided enough information for us to consider adding them. When this changes, of course we will add them. We've also heard about Bitcoin Century, but have not found any information about it.
HappyBitcoin Posted December 4, 2017 #2 Posted December 4, 2017 Great info to have! Thank you! Saving this for lager references ?
remember Posted December 4, 2017 #5 Posted December 4, 2017 so where should we save bitcoin to recieve bcd?
Kargai Posted December 4, 2017 #7 Posted December 4, 2017 The guy behind the Super Bitcoin fork is Li Xiaola, a chinese businessman, who is know for his shaddy roles in doubtful projects : EOS, ICO.info or PressOne. They don't even have a whitepaper. Weird for a project who is suppose to bring so great thing to BTC than smart contracts & co. They have 210 000 SBTC premined that they will keep for themselves for "future developments". Could be real (Bitcoin Gold did the same) but could also be a way to make quick bucks. That's suppose to be a fork, but it seem to me that it's more an ICO than something else. I don't say it will be a bad fork or a scammy one, just to be cautious with all those forks, we will see dozen of them in the future. Only in China 2 other fork are already planned for the next months ; Bitcoin Century and Bitcoin Diamond.

To make it better, faster, etc. We can all see that BTC has some flaws, sometimes confirmations take hours and there is actually less than 20 millions users ... imagine when the world will use it, basically it will worth nothing if you have to wait days before confirming any transactions. People are forking to make a better bitcoin. Bitcoin Cash multiplied the number of transactions possible by seconds and other fork want to add new options (smart contracts, ...).

But people still crazy about btc instead of forked coins and doesn't care about flaws.. May be there is a chance these coins would dominate btc in the future right??

Grifter Posted December 7, 2017 Author #14 Posted December 7, 2017 On 12/5/2017 at 5:20 PM, Jesse said: What coin should we all invest in Thanks for the tip mate! i swear im gonna invest some with Bitcoin Diamond, 1 BTC will result in 10 BCD so kind of profitable at all and no hassle. in Super Bitcoin, maybe i will put some of my btc in my qoinpro wallet just to double your bitcoins, ratio is 1:1 if you have 1 btc, then you'll get 1 SBC on your wallet... but after all, im not gonna invest this super bitcoin, coz i dont trust chinese.... And Hello guys additional Updates for upcoming forks: Lighting Bitcoin on December 23, 2018: The next publicly announced Bitcoin fork, "Super Bitcoin" is scheduled for December 16/17, 2017 (block #498,888) and very soon after, there will be the Lightning Bitcoin (LBTC) fork, scheduled to fork at block height #499,999. If this fork happens and passes our tests we will support it under the LBTC ticker symbol. The ratio of LBTC you will receive for every BTC in your QoinPro wallet is 1:1, meaning if you have 2.7 BTC you will get 2.7 LBTC (just like BCH and BTG).
