Epidemic forks of Bitcoin: gift or fraud?
”*°•..•°*”
Creating forks of Bitcoin with a copy of all available balances that contain the "gift" coins to all owners of bitcoin certainly is the trend of recent months. In fact, why invest time and money in the development or marketing if it is so easy to attract a great many people who will refuse to get something for nothing?
At first quite successful Bitcoin Cash, then dubious Bitcoin and Bitcoin Gold Silver, a few days fallen to virtually zero. Now followed by another copy of Bitcoin - Bitcoin Super (SBTC). Network SBTC seeks to block 498888 (around mid December), and the original bitcoin owners will get the same SBTC, how many BTC are "completely free" - you only have to have purse. According to the official website, SBTC scales the block size to 8 megabytes, and will use smart contracts and Lightning network (which has not yet started in any of the current cryptocurrency - approx. ed.).
Behind the project man - Whether Saoli (Li Xiaolai), Chinese bichenovii tycoon. If – ambiguous character in the Chinese community, which this year initiated the ICO projects as EOS, ICO.info and PressOne. The project PressOne received $ 550 million within three days without the release of White paper and was called a typical "Scam" in major Chinese media.
When in September of this year, China banned ICO, Lee published a letter of apology that he overestimated his abilities, and regretted that he was somehow misled newcomers to the cryptocurrency space. After that it still was "forgotten" community. Preliminary mining Bitcoin Super again attracted attention. In General, the project consists of 21 SBTC 210 000 210 000 will be produced by the advance of mining.As Bitcoin Gold, the team SBTC explains that remainingbytes coins will be used for early development, and also for "building ecosystem".
"I support the struggle between the forks of the coins, but I do not support pre-mining 210 000 coins, which is considered unethical and dishonest," said the owner of BTC.TOP Joar Jiang (Jiang Zhuoer). Jiang also added that it is pointless to have another network with a large block size, and it is not SBTC sees as a threat to Bitcoin Cash.
"You're wondering if I paint this time," says Jiang.
Hardwork and his friends
Jiang said that in addition to the SBTC on the horizon appeared two Chinese hard forks - Century Bitcoin and Bitcoin Diamond. He believes that in reality this is ICO under the guise of hard forks or "primary placement to fork", as he calls it.
"The primary placement to fork" has become the innovative way of fundraising. However, pre-mining is more like a fraud than an attempt to resurrect bitcoin," says Jiang.
Not only Bitcoin
However, not only in Bitcoin are beginning to multiply forks. Even created the "forks of forks". November 13 was successful hardwork blockchain Bitcoin Cash. However, despite the absence of contradictions in the community and among the miners there was a copy of the network. A previously unknown group started the production of blocks, giving the new coin name Bitcoin Clashic.
First this network, working in parallel BCH, noticed CEO of Bitmain, Cihan U. the Founder of a mining company explains that the unknown mining pool hash rate allocated to maintain the source chain. After the statement Wu group came out of the shadows, disclose their website and Twitter.
"Все держатели биткоинов на блоке 478558 также владельцы Биткоин Clashic. Мы приветствуем всех, кто хочет присоединиться к сообществу Биткоин Clashic и создание стабильной валюты, существующих в мире", - говорится на сайте группы.
At the moment the blockchain Explorer for Clashic is missing, but has his own mining pool. At the present time, a browser called Satoshistruevision.com but on the website until there is no data. Twitter also offers a statistics page of the network. Twitter Clashic very active – the first record in it appeared on 11 November, it immediately explained the intentions of the team:
"We are a closed group of influential miners that will use the existing chain to ensure that the adjustment difficulties occurred as planned. We believe that Satoshi would not mind the high variability of complexity as part of its true vision".
Что касается бирж и кошельков для поддержки монету, то они не являются, но на страницах сайта пользователи Clashic можете скачать полную узла клиента, используя Биткоин версии ABC 0.15.1.
No one knows who owns the website Clashic because Whois data is closed. On forums and social networks, the Bitcoin Cash supporters say the owner of the site is just a Troll and many consider the project a joke. He probably never will be added to the stock exchange and over time will disappear.
The same fate awaits the most part clones of Bitcoin, which can not offer the community anything of value, except for short-term speculation. At an early stage in industry of cryptocurrency has experienced similar "flash mobs" - for example, the boom of pseudo-national cryptocurrency in 2013 and numerous alithinou named after celebrities in 2013-2014. Almost all of them already forgotten.
