Bitcoin huge news: AntPool just mined first block signalling Segwit2X - no split August 1st?

in #bitcoin7 years ago (edited)

Bitmain announced that they will start using Segwit2X software today - it looks that they have just started doing it!

They just mined first block signalling Segwit2X:

This is kinda huge for the Bitcoin. If at least 80% of mined blocks will signal the same thing for the next 2 days - it means that Segwit2X is locked and we will finally have Segwit on Bitcoin!

And that means no split on August 1st!

We'll see how the market will react - the price at the moment is $2025.

Sort:  

+30 minutes: BTC at $2050 with big volume increase. Let that info spread out ;)
