BitMEX Exchange Joins SegWit2x Opposition, Confirms Zero Support

sequentialvibe (66)in #cryptocurrency • 9 years ago

Mexican Bitcoin exchange BitMEX has said it will not support SegWit2x “even if the SegWit2x chain has the majority hashrate.”

In comments markedly different to this week’s other notice from Xapo on the forthcoming hard fork, BitMEX confirmed it would not deal in rival Bitcoin chains under any circumstances.

This, it says, is because SegWit2x “does not include two-way transaction replay protection, enabled by default.”

“Therefore BitMEX will not be able to support SegWit2x,” the announcement states.

“As such, BitMEX will not support the distribution of B2X, nor will BitMEX be liable for any B2X sent to us.”
