ABC

[https://www.jstor.org/stable/25102198](https://www.jstor.org/stable/25102198) In The ABC of Money, Andrew Carnegie asserts gold is more like the north star, and that everything moves around it. I don't know that anything other than other crypto move around BTC, and who knows what BTC moves around, but it do be.

It's not dip, just standard ABC correction, which started few weeks ago ~59k most likely bottom

Been on Velodrome for almost 2 years & Aerodrome since it was airdropped. Every Wednesday vote & take those bribes & incentives & either roll them back in, increase USDC/ETH LP, or swap to ETH. Do not underestimate the power of DCA, compounding, & stop buying useless shit & eating out. I plan on buying some land & starting an ABC farming op; apples, blueberries, & cannabis.

whereismyface_ig

Definitely, that was a bit more recent than the already very numerous exit scams / honeypots or ABC boys shutdowns. The biggest fraud related darknet market voluntarily exited the game graciously a year or 2 ago as well

Thetonious

Only if you think high fees, lousy customer support, open cooperation with ABC agencies, operating a shitcoin casino, stipulating that they own everything on their exchange (with a promise to pay back what they 'owe you'), putting you at the end of a long list of unsecured creditors if they go bankrupt, and constantly going down when things get frantic is dogshit. Otherwise they are THE BEST! ;-)

#Bitcoin Cash Con-Arguments Below is a Bitcoin Cash con-argument written by Blendzi0r. > # What is Bitcoin Cash (BCH)? > > Bitcoin Cash is a [hard fork](https://www.investopedia.com/terms/h/hard-fork.asp) of Bitcoin. It was launched in 2017. [It has 32MB blocks instead of Bitcoin’s 1MB](https://www.coindesk.com/learn/2015/08/21/what-is-the-bitcoin-block-size-debate-and-why-does-it-matter/), so it can handle many more transactions per second (TPS). And that’s the main difference between BTC and BCH, as its goal was to tackle [Bitcoin’s scalability problem](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bitcoin_scalability_problem) without the second layer solutions. > > # What are the cons of BCH? > > **IT’S CENTRALIZED** > > BCH “inherited” BTC’s supply distribution from July 2017 when it was launched but the supply held by large addresses [has become more concentrated over time](https://coinmetrics.substack.com/p/coin-metrics-state-of-the-network-2d3) (while BTC is even more decentralized today). > > In 2019, [just two mining pools were able to perform a 51% attack](https://www.coindesk.com/tech/2019/05/24/bitcoin-cash-miners-undo-attackers-transactions-with-51-attack/). And although it was done for a good cause – to stop an unknown miner from exploiting a bug – it can serve as a prove that BCH was centralized already back then. > > ​ > > **THE NARRATIVE IS ON BITCOIN’S SIDE** > > The value of Bitcoin has gone up more than 2,000% since July 2017 while BCH has stayed below its price from July 2017 most of the time, not to mention its [ATH price of $4,355](https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/bitcoin-cash/) (it's 86% down from ATH as of 31.10.2021). > > Also liquidity and real-world usability of Bitcoin Cash [is nowhere near that of Bitcoin](https://www.investopedia.com/tech/bitcoin-vs-bitcoin-cash-whats-difference/#citation-4). It is clear that the great majority of investors chose Bitcoin after the 2017 hard fork and BCH is seen as an inferior copy. > > ​ > > **IT HAD ITS OWN HARD FORKS** > > People cringe at Internet Computer’s name, but for me, Bitcoin Satoshi Vision (BSV) takes the cake. It’s a hard fork of Bitcoin Cash that took place in late 2018. It has even larger blocks than BCH – [2GB](https://finance.yahoo.com/news/world-record-2-gigabyte-block-130000498.html). > > In 2020, there was another hard fork that produced two new chains- Bitcoin Cash ABC and Bitcoin Node. This shows that Bitcoin Cash has failed not only against Bitcoin, but had splits among its own community, further hurting its credibility. > > ​ > > **IT'S SCALABILITY COMES AT A COST** > > Bigger blocks have certain [disadvantages](https://www.sfox.com/blog/is-bigger-better-how-to-evaluate-bitcoin-cash-based-on-block-size/). Running nodes when the blocks are big requires more resources. Also, the commissions from transaction fees are lower, which makes mining the coin less appealing. This might result in nodes being manageable only by big, private companies, making BCH even more centralized. > > ​ > > **ITS MAIN ADVANTAGE ISN’T UTILIZED…** > > Although BCH’s blocks can handle up to 32MB of data, [they have not reached even 2MB since they were introduced in 2018](https://bitinfocharts.com/comparison/size-btc-bch.html#3y). What's more, their average size is currently much lower than that of Bitcoin’s blocks. > > Taking into consideration the point above about the disadvantages of bigger blocks, it makes you wonder why BCH would push for such big blocks when most of the time they don't even use 3% of their capacity. > > ​ > > **… AND EVEN IF IT WAS, THERE'S LIGHTNING NETWORK** > > [SegWit](https://www.investopedia.com/terms/s/segwit-segregated-witness.asp) allows second layer solutions to be implemented on Bitcoin.

> don't forget the elusive team of Craig Wright, Calvin Ayre and Roger Ver who played a key role in the bcash fork Don't rewrite history. BCH was created by the ABC developer group at the same time as Ver, Bitmain and the rest of the NYA agreement group were still supporting SegWit2X

Check BCH with derivation paths for both BTC and BCH. BCH now has the new derivation path, but in the early days, because it forked from BTC, it used the same derivation path as Bitcoin BTC. If you find BCH there, you might have BSV and eCash (ABC) coins from later forks.

Yes. ABC. Always Be DCAing. Or ABD... ABDCAing.

There’s a few ways. There used to be apps but a lot of them got shut down. There’s also a lot of groups that involve crypto enthusiasts on WeChat that I’m in as well. I’m an ABC but currently live in china so it’s not hard for me to get crypto and the language barrier isn’t that bad for me

Gordon_Law

Earned crypto such as through staking, mining, rewards, earning yield - or in general any "ascension to wealth" is considered income at the fair market value at the time received. Say you earn .1 ABC token rewards and at the time you receive it its worth $100. You would report $100 of taxable income on your tax return. Say you say it later for $50. Then, you would have the original income of $100 but also a capital loss of $50 ($100 cost basis less the $50 sales price). You must claim the income at the time you receive or earn it, not when you sell it. Unfortunately, this is very clear cut in the eyes of the IRS.

plasmalightwave

So let’s say I traded 1 BTC for 10k ABC tokens a year ago. That trade would have gone into my tax filing. Now let’s say (a year later) the team renamed the token to XYZ. I sell them for 1.2 BTC. The trade goes into my next tax filing, but the trade shows that I sold tokens XYZ. Won’t the IRS be like “where did you get the XYZ tokens from?” If it was a simple communication letter, then I could easily respond. But don’t they usually audit for such things, especially if the trades are huge in terms of USD?

zeamp

I personally view crypto, stocks, etc. like this: **You're buying a lottery ticket from the future.** ​ The longer you wait to scratch it, the more prizes there could be. Don't think of it as an investment, or a job, or a (if I make $/month I can do XYZ or quit ABC), buy something and hold on to it for a decade. Whether you're young or old, 10 years or more should pass. If you believe in something, wait for it to happen. Set a goal: when my holding value reaches XXX, I'm going to cash out. Until then, no. Wait on the dip to buy more, but don't sell anything to buy a future dip. Just keep buying and believing, and USING.

yourmomsbootay

Was trying to learn about airdrop farming, started following Miles (also involved with this fiasco, such a shame, he seemed legit) and X's algo picked up on it. She started popping in my "for you" so I was cautiously reading her stuff. Most seemed just stupid shills or "I gave you ABC at $X" bs you constantly see, but in the noise, some stuff seemed interesting. SAVM came up at a moment when I was a bit more confident (read her first tweet maybe 5 min after she posted) and wanted to get in early into a project that kinda felt like it had potential. Must admit that I didn't do a thorough research, just checked the site, idea of the project and its narrative. I got lucky.

No, generating a checksum is cryptographic. It works the same way cryptocurrency transaction hashes do. If the Bitcoin Core devs say the checksum should be "ABC", the source code has to be a certain way for that checksum to be generated. If it is even changed by one character, the hash will be different.

Yall need to start using the + feature most emails have. Anytime you sign up for anything you should be using it. if you dont know what im talking about here's an example if your email is ABC123@gmail.com for example and you wanted to sign up for nexo, you should list your email as ABC123+Nexo@gmail.com You will still get all ur emails and anytime you get one that is spam with that tag, you'll know who and how it leaked. it also makes it very easy to simply create a new Filter rule after the spam starts to just block it all by blocking that specific tag.

jersey-city-park

No. The future of BTC is literally not changing anytime. People have tried introducing changes for years and the community has rejected them, thats why theres Bitcoin BCH, Bitcoin Cash, Bitcoin ABC, Bitcoin Shitcoin, etc.

If you do self-custody with air-gapped offline cold storage correctly, you may have zero worries of anything getting compromised, instead of regularly worrying about ABC device from XYZ brand being compromised. All hardware devices can be liken to holes. Jumping from one device to another device from a different brand can be likened to jumping out of one hole just to land into another hole.

The problem with this setup is where they're being sent to. It could be setup to send to send the funds equally to 3 different wallets corresponding to the private access for each individual. The problem with this is that if one individual died or lost their private key, the other 2 individuals lose that money altogether. They'll never retrieve it. It could be setup so that the 3 of 3 transaction sends the funds to a new 3 of 3 shared multisig wallet where they'll be able to draft their own transactions whereever they want and split the money how they decide. The benefit to this strategy is if all 3 people sign the transaction, then all 3 people must be alive and have access to their keys. The problem is a low risk of enacting the transaction with all 3 people to a shared 3-3 multisig wallet, and while the money is sitting there, and before they split the money, 1 person dies, refuses to agree to a distribution proposal, or loses their codes. If just one person messes up in this situation, they all lose ALL the money. -- As for the other benefit, the 3-3 tx would send to a 3-3 multisig wallet, the 2-3 tx would send to a 2-3 multisig wallet, and the 1-3 tx would send to a 1-3 multisig wallet. So there is some flexibility for codes lost or people who die before the funds are sent to a multisig wallet, but whichever tx they decide on and multisig wallet they choose poses a risk if 1 party decides not to agree to any distribution, dies, or loses their codes after initiating the first transaction to a multisig wallet. Now, I did a bit more research and it seems like my idea for a smart contract for a WALLET to move from 3-3, to 2-3, to 1-3 is not only complicated; it's impossible. Wallets can't have smart contracts as far as I can understand. Only transactions can. Here's my new idea, although it is much more complicated. Each party creates their own wallet that only they have access to. Let's say there are 4 people: A, B, C, D. There are 4 different wallets they own. I am person Z, so my money is in there. Their wallets have no Bitcoin yet. I would draft several different transactions. A tx equally distributing to all of them: ABCD. In case 1 of them dies or loses their private keys, I'll also draft tx distributing to ABC, ABD, ACD, BCD. In case 2 of them die or lose their keys, I set up txs for AB, AC, AD, BC, BD, CD. And in case 3 of them die or lose their keys, I set up txs for A, B, C, and D. This means there are 15 different transactions that need to be drafted. As for each transaction, every single one needs smart contract language to automatically change from 4-4 multisig, to 3-4, 2-4, and eventually 1-4. This is necessary, as the alternative is drafting 4*15 transactions... Ex: ABCD 4-4, ABCD 3-4, ABCD 2-4, ABCD 1-4, ABC 4-4, ABC 3-4, etc... So using smart contract language dramatically decreases the number of transactions to keep track of. Using this methodology, it prevents the problem of 1 party extorting another and refusing to sign the transaction unless they get a higher distribution (since only equal distributions are even possible). It also solves the problem of any party dying or losing their keys at any point in time. No funds are ever risked in limbo as they would be if they were ever moved to a permanent multisig wallet. The obvious con is the complexity of: - writing smart contracts that would transition a single tx from 4-4, to 3-4, to 2-4, to 1-4 over time - drafting the sheer number of transactions necessary to mitigate the risk of inheritors dying or losing their keys. If there are 2 inheritors, there needs to be 3 tx drafts. 3 inheritors= 7 tx drafts. 4 = 15. 5 = 31. 6 = 63. 7 = 127. This is all assuming equal distributions between inheritors. If there are varying distribution options, it increases this amount much more. It might be cool to create a software that could take each party's receiving address and public key and other necessary information to automatically draft all the possible transactions in a neat format with easily scannable QRs. Possibly even put each inheritor's name and have an option to click buttons to signify which inheritor died or lost their key, to quickly display the correct transaction which would equally distribute the money among the remaining inheritors receiving addresses. This would make it super simple for the inheritors who may not fully understand Bitcoin or may not be the best record keepers to figure out which transaction they need to use. Then the software could even show the block (and predicted date) when the chosen tx would be possible. For instance, an ABCD distribution would be available a lot sooner than an AC distribution would be, because ABCD can be done with 4-4 multisig, but the AC needs to wait for 2-4 multisig which may be several months or years later. But, there is one really big problem with this and all the multisig options. Inheritors could strategize with each other. For example, maybe C and D are really close, and A and B are not so close with anyone. C and D could choose not to sign the 4-4 multisig and wait until it reaches the 2-4 multisig to send all the money to themselves (CD receiving addresses), while A and B are still alive and helpless to stop it. But, this is the case with any decreasing multisig strategy.

No. Transferring to bank must be under the same name. So if your name is ABC then the receiving account at any bank must be ABC.

ethicacious

It depends where in the world you are. In the UK and some other countries any disposal of crypto is a taxable event. If you swap ETH > ABC and there was a profit (measured by market price differences), then that is taxable.

splashtonkutcher

Let’s say on Coinbase theres coin ABC, currently trading at $10 on the open market. There are 5 coins of ABC for trade at this price. If I market buy 6 coins, I will buy up all 5 coins at $10, and my 6th coin will be one from the next price up, let’s say it’s $10.01. The market price of ABC is now $10.01. Now let’s say I want to buy 1 million ABC coins. If I did a market order of that, I’d buy the 5 at $10, the X number at $10.01, $10.02… it’s likely that my order would spike up the price so much thereby screwing myself over since I acquired so many at a higher price. Therefore, since my order size is so big, I contact Coinbase directly - they offer an OTC service when the order size is large enough - and say, hey I want to acquire a million ABC at $10. Coinbase says sure, we got enough, that’ll cost $10 million plus a transaction fee. Because I acquired those coins off-market, the price on the open market is not affected.

binglelemon

He was trying to say the "ABC's" but he's not the best speller-guy.

magic-karma

You are correct. But it is not a law, it is a rule the IRS enforces. Wash Sale has nothing to do with the SEC/1933/34. It was made up in the IRS for how to treat losses, when buying back the same security. E.g. end of the calendar year, you b want to take losses to balance out the tax due on other gains in your portfolio ( selling your $ABC stock at a loss to lessen the tax able amount on the safe of $XYZ stock) if you repurchase the same or similar enough security, the ITS will disqualify the losses. No one except the IRS cares about a wash sale.

>*"You can think about public keys as usernames with which you can search for your friend’s Nostr profile. Your private key is your password. Users can jump between various decentralized social applications built on Nostr using their public-private keys. If you get kicked out of platform ABC, then you can move all your posts, messages, and followers to another platform XYZ and carry out business as usual. Although there are a lot of similarities between the Nostr protocol and blockchain protocols, Nostr is not a blockchain. It is simply a set of rules. Nostr, however, does draw inspiration from blockchain protocols like Bitcoin in championing decentralization and interoperability."* Interesting stuff, thank you. So Jack Dorsey's public Nostr key is npub1sg6plzptd64u62a878hep2kev88swjh3tw00gjsfl8f237lmu63q0uf63m I searched his address and found a whole Nostr address book of other public figures. https://github.com/aitechguy/nostr-address-book This is kind of the thing I was thinking around albeit I'm not sure it has the added payment feature like a conventional Blockchain.

The bottom line is whatever game dev studio is still going to have to integrate those NFT's into their game. What's the difference between ABC studio having their items as NFT's and being sold on an external market place or XYZ studio having their non-NFT related items being sold on an external marketplace? Either way there has to be a lot of work done to make X item displayable or usable in whatever game is beind developed. Regardless of genre. Either are achievable with or without blockchain tech.

Any company these days has data leaks. Thankfully, seed phrases are not stored in the cloud/internet on default hardware cold storage devices. There for, Ledger is as safe as any other hardware wallet. If purchasing a device on any ABC site and then my address or name is leaked from the purchase, that is not the same as my seed phrase being compromised on my hardware wallet. Apples and Oranges.

This is a genuine question - why can't we all just admit we gambled our money to have one tiny shot at the wheel of wealthiness? I think we could all benefit from seeking the truth in ourselves, but when I read things like: "XYZ has actual uses in agriculture and trade because it ABC", from a person who is most likely not in any of those sectors involved, I think: "you know how fucking stupid you sound right now? almost like you are convincing yourself and everybody else that you intelligently "invested" your money. There is no institutional investment. There is no TA. I know our human brains demand for a logic explanation as to why things occur, but if you haven't realized by now that this is all a huge gamble, then seriously wake up. You don't sound smart.

UTXO consolidation: As I understand it, you can send from yourself, to yourself, to another address on your key/wallet. Ok, but can you send to exactly the same address that it came from, without problems, eg: ABC123 > ABC123. Does the chain understand that, or would that f-ck things up in some unforeseen way.

JamesBondMI6007

It depends on how you plan on calculating the cost basis. FIFO (First in first out) or average cost, or specific shares etc… For your specific use case you can probably just use average cost. Which would look something like this, I’m going to use shares instead of sats, for the sake of making this easier to understand. Say you buy 10 shares of ABC for $100, then you buy 10 more shares for $120 your cost basis would be the total cost ($2,200) divided by the total number of shares (20 shares), or $110 per share. Then you can take your average price per share and subtract it from the current share price to get how much you made per share. So lets assume that stock is now worth $200 a share and your cost basis is $110. You’ve made an average of $90 per share. You have 20 shares so 20*90 is a profit of $1,900.

A lot of people believe we will see a lot lower prices before the main event comes along. Only one side will be right. Its funny because people say all the time to zoom out, we are doing great. Well if you zoom out passed this and last bull market to actually beginning of BTC, there is a very strong argument that we could still be in an ABC correction phase for last bull market. The decline from 68k to 15k could just be a wave A and we could be in a rebound wave B just before we take the last decline phase C, that could take us below any lows we have seen so far. Its not an impossible scenario, that is why the market is so split and so cautious. Its easy to get lost in fear of FOMO, but that does not prove we are in THE bull market yet. I let people believe what they choose to believe and act on those believes and I do the same. We will all get what we deserve in the end.

Monkeyinchief

How exactly do you explain the arrest of John Podesta friend Slade Sohmer, editor in chief, who bragged about debunking Pizza gate? Just for context, he got arrested this month for rapping multiple toddlers and babies. What about ABC reporter James Meek also sentenced this year for owning sadist child porn? I know it is all a coincidence has nothing to do with anything. It is like all US presidents besides Trump, who went either broke into office or with a wealth of 1 or 2 million and ending their time with usually 2 digits in the millions with an income of 400.000...just magically rich as fuck. Sure the government is her to help you. That is why we elect them 😂

ABC is Australian. You are bringing up US issues.

threeseed

This is from the ABC which is a highly respected, non-partisan news organisation similar to PBS. They aren't in the business of doing hit pieces. And they have no agenda to push about crypto one way or another. Your comment on the other hand is weirdly defensive about crypto. Nothing in life is perfect and crypto absolutely has its issues.

perky2012

A simple way is to split the 24 word passphrase into 3 groups of 8, say groups A,B and C. Then store AB in one location, AC in another, and BC in a third location. You need at least 2 of the 3 locations to recreate ABC.

>Is it really a fork if basically everyone agrees to go ahead with a change? Yes, that's the very definition of a soft fork. There are hard forks and soft forks. The former is what resulted in two Bitcoin Cash coins (ABC and SV) where they did not agree to what needed to change and thus forged its own path, both coins continued. A soft fork is like what happens when Bitcoin adopted SegWit. Everyone agrees with the change, it takes place, and the previous iteration is declared dead because everyone moves forward with the version that changed. I've been around crypto since 2014 and have seen many, many hard and soft forks, so I got a little excited at the chance to explain them.

This is the same reason people get wrecked on penny-stocks. Simply put, it's super risky to trade in an illiquid market because even if you're right about the price movement, you may not actually realize any of the gains. Put another way, let's say you decide to buy 100 shares of $ABC @ $50. Once you buy, a everyone pulls their sell orders. People also pull their buy orders. You set a sell order of 100 shares @ $100. One share sells. Now, the stock is priced at $100. You doubled your money. However, nobody else wants to buy your shares. You've spent $50,000, you've sold $100. you're still out $49,900. Now, future trading is just like that, except you're charged .25% of your portfolio value every day. Eventually, your portfolio shrinks so much that you need to liquidate your position. Effectively, you've lost $49,900 because you decided to trade an asset that doesn't have liquidity.

MinervaBlade89

No, it’s not. There’s virtually no reason for the company to know, especially not bitcoin. If OP owned a specific crypto that was being developed by a company, like ABC coin developed by ABC co. Then there could be a legitimate reason, but for an audit that should be handled on a case by case basis.

tenor_tymir

Hm, this is weird since the video in the BitBox App has it right as i would expect it to look like. That’s what got me confused since the device itself does not show it that way. ABC - i expect upper case letters abc - i expect lower case letters 123 - i expect numbers That’s how it’s shown inside the App.

tenor_tymir

Hey Dev! Nice meeting you. My BitBox02 device gives me the wrong headlines when selecting letters. Like in the middle it says “ABC“ but i can only choose numbers. When i swipe to number selection I see “abc” as the headline… and “123” gives me lower case letters… it’s switched up, but operational. Any fix coming up for that? I can send screenshots if necessary

Individual2020

Unfortunately, real state power was lost after the Civil War and the early 1900s just before WWI when they passed the 17th Amendment basically decoupling the Senate from the direct control by state legislatures. The states holding out on bitcoin still can create noise in Congress but in the end it’s all just grandstanding. The ABC agencies in the Executive Branch have all the real power today no matter who is elected as president.

There used to be a point in time where I had cash in my wallet, but I’m at the point now where my currency lives on a plastic card. And probably one day, I’ll be using XYZ vendor’s product to pay for a coffee with ABC crypto

BreadnPaper

I'm confused about what you're saying. We make an agreement/contract. The contract mentions my contract ABC is transferring $5000 to contract DEF (yours). I send the funds through the blockchain in Bitcoin for example. The transaction is literally there on the blockchain forever.

#Bitcoin Cash Con-Arguments Below is a Bitcoin Cash con-argument written by Blendzi0r. > # What is Bitcoin Cash (BCH)? > > Bitcoin Cash is a [hard fork](https://www.investopedia.com/terms/h/hard-fork.asp) of Bitcoin.

My biggest fear is: 1) On Apr 2024 halving date, Bitcoin has made a lower low, breaking under $15.5k, 2) then for the next 18 months Bitcoin has to fight its way back up and only gets to an ATH of $40-50k and is rejected, 3) then in the subsequent 2026-28 bear market, Bitcoin crashes all the way down to $3k. That scenario would look exactly like an Elliot wave supercycle, with 3 peaks to the top (the prev 3 cycle peaks), followed by a crashing ABC structure (the upcoming 2024-28 cycle that never gets back to ATH).

MrMogz

Good info! At the end of the day what Reddit did, is how normal folks can use/adopt crypto. They don’t care about all the intricacies, if it works and is better than the alternative, they’ll use it, but it has to be “as easy as ABC” and we’re not there yet, for the overall market.

slug_tamer

Ah true it's on the government funded TV channel here in Aus so free to stream. If you have a VPN you could try the ABC iview. Great show!

1011010110102

what about ledger or trezor who have the words pre-loaded onto the devices. What would stop them from keeping a database of what words are loaded onto wallet "ABC".... i never could understand why people can't just make up their own 24 words. Am i missing something here?

>In your above example, if Wallet ABC has 50 UTXOs of .02 in it, can ABC send to ABC all 50 UTXOs and it'll have an output of 1 UTXO? The protocol allows it and that's indeed the outcome, but your specific wallet might warn you against (or even prevent you from) sending such a transaction.

piercena15

Just to clarify, can you send to the same address you are sending from? In your above example, if Wallet ABC has 50 UTXOs of .02 in it, can ABC send to ABC all 50 UTXOs and it'll have an output of 1 UTXO?

I would like you to talk more about the coin ABC, I haven't heard a good bull market story for a while. :D

It's easier to airdrop and pump-and-dump by making a token on a smart chain Forking a PoW blockchain only works if there are miners willing to adopt the new coin. Several of these have happened, but are mostly ignored by the market and by miners. There's even a fairly recent PoS fork of Bitcoin Probably the most recent noticeable chain fork was the split of BCash into BCHA and BCHN. The ABC developer group wanted to levy a 25% tax on mining rewards, to fund development. This tax was overwhelmingly rejected by the BCash community, but went ahead anyway. BCHA is the fork with the tax. BCHN is BCH, with community support Acrimony with the BSV community has created numerous forks. Nobody keeps track of them

AD1AD

BCH has slowly been weeding out the crazies and wannabe dictators who show up to fill the "power vacuum" in a decentralized currency. Ironically, the next split BCH had was when one of the founding dev teams (Bitcoin ABC) was kicked to the curb for trying to impose a development tax.

> they did so because they weren't happy with the controversial Segwit update How you love to rewrite history Nobody in the bigger block camp hated SegWit until after the New York Group's own SegWit hard fork failed to launch BCash didn't have SegWit because its developers (the ABC group) based their larger block version of Bitcoin on a pre-SegWit base, not because they disagreed with SegWit SegWit was never controversial until months after it launched, after the SegWit2X project collapsed. The controversy was that even though they supported SegWit, some miner pools refused to signal their support in their block headers because they chose to abuse the block signaling mechanism as a way to force a debate on bigger blocks. In August 2017, they signaled for SegWit because their blocking maneuver was outmaneuvered Three months later the big block proponents claimed to be anti-SegWit, because when their SegWit2X fork failed they chose to advocate for BCash, which didn't have SegWit for the reason already mentioned. Their SegWit opposition was fake, still is fake The more interesting fork occurred when the ABC developers published an update which paid 25% of mining rewards to a developer fund. The BCash community rejected this update. Both BCH-ABC and BCH-node forks still persist

I have some money in $ABC, I was going to tell my wife then I saw this post. Thanks OP

Hype = dolla dolla bills. If you buy ABC123 coin, then make a bunch of bs hype articles and advertise the cheese out of em, you walk away holding the bag. Rinse and repeat

Trust me, don't tell anyone. They ask how much of ABC do you have have you made money (worst question to thise who got in 2020, near the crash if u didn't take enough profit) try to tell you its a scam with incorrect information (then you have to spend 10 minuites answering a question that has the same answer as the next question they're going to ask). Say "Wow it went from 30k to 17k" to show that you lost a lot of money. Trust I've had all these experiences. Don't tell anyone about your crypto, if they want to let them understand crypto in their own way, whether they trade, invest, or use it As a medium of exchange.

I recommend to read The Glacier Protocol (https://glacierprotocol.org/) at least once, even if you're not going to implement it. It walks you through all sorts of scenarios of loss, theft and extortion of private keys. What's important is to not have a single point of failure. Multi-Sig, like the Glacier Protocol, is one way to achieve that. Although I would use Electrum on Tails instead of Bitcoin Core, simply because it's more convenient. Other than that, the Glacier Protocol remains intact. Or you split the seed into parts to get redundancy. For example, you can get a Trezor One (https://trezor.io/) hardware wallet. It generates 24 word seeds. Let the Trezor generate such a seed. Write down the first 10 words on a piece of paper. Factory reset the Trezor and let it generate some other 24 word seed. Write it down on another piece of paper. Use the 1st 10 words you generated as a passphrase. This changes the whole key-set you're going to use. Be sure what the passphrase is. There is no checksum or anything. Every passphrase is valid, but every passphrase gives you a different set of keys. Now you can take another 3 pieces of paper. On paper A write: Words 1-24 of the seed. Paper B: Words 1-12 of the seed, plus the 10 words of the passphrase. Paper C: Words 13-24 of the seed, plus the 10 words of the passphrase. So you have a scheme of 3 parts, ABC and you've split it up into AB- A-C and -CA. Now put the 3 different parts into temper proof envelopes and store each at a different secure location. You can store the Trezor itself with part "AB-", because it has the 24 seed words on its internal memory, but the passphrase (the 10 words). Burn the pieces of paper you're not using. Periodically check the 3 locations, like every 6 months or so. See if the paper backups are still legible. If one part is illegible, reconstruct it from the other 2 parts. If one is missing entirely or you're suspecting someone might have had access to it, create a new wallet like before and transfer all the funds to it.

They will expire using negative rates. Just how your purchasing power expires today via inflation, but.. combined with inflation. Foreign or used cars could come with a 50% tax to reduce their demand. Advertised to handle today's global chip shortage/climate problem without crashing the wider economy. Prices would remain steady or deflate. Inflation would appear very low if they could only remove auto from the data today. 2% inflation is their goal not how many people can drive to work. Maybe a tax only to you specifically because you are buying an excessive amount of cars, more than 1 per household. CBDCs aim is to prevent economic volitility.... The only reason there's ever been volitility is because *it is fun* to twist the make it rain money knob and everybody is happy with you, because the fallout won't be for 5-10 years, and nobody can be or wants to be that guy to put it to an end so it persists until a full on rager where people are selling fart jpgs making millions of dollars. Money printers going Brrr is human nature at this point. Only it will be brrrr to XYZ investments that are ESG compliant that the politicians have all invested into while there's a massive recession in ABC and in your business because of some arbirary tax imposed - but damn the data will look GREAT.
