You can finally transact with Segwit on Bitcoin! Faster Transactions! Lower Fees!

in #cryptocurrency7 years ago

Been tired of Bitcoin having slow transaction speed and higher transaction fee?

Worry not! Remember Segwit got activated after HardFork but didn't really change anything?

That's because we weren't using Segwit Compatible Wallets, but hey!

Bitstamp just announced all their wallets are Segwit Ready!

Join the Lightning Network!

Yeah, I've heard recently that only 1% of the transactions are using segregated witness! But this was only a so called soft fork, the real change is going to happen later on this year, if the big players will do what they told they would do in the consensus... Worst case scenario is that there will be another hard fork like the Bitcoin Cash... But hey... It's free money, right? ;-) let it grow! Great post! Good luck with your investments my

Not 1%, it's less than that, but if we want to support BTC Scaling, it's time we support Segwit compatible wallets, it'll help us in mass adoption.

There is another HF in discussion Bitcoin Gold which can be mined from a GPU.
