I gave it: "HackerNews is...". That's what I got: --- HackerNews is...trying really hard to be hip to everything. Big national media must have gotten word of a new internet meme, because every day there’s a story on it that makes its way to the front page. Many of these stories are so obviously biased they’re ridiculous. Something about the Bitcoin Cash “fork” that split up from the Bitcoin “mainnet” in November? That’s still Bitcoin. So Bitcoin Cash isn’t Bitcoin. Bitcoin Cash doesn’t count as Bitcoin. What about Bitcoin Cash? These headlines are a case study in how someone with no Bitcoin experience (or really any real understanding of money) can reach the front page of a big national media site with the headlines they write. BTC/BCH is Bitcoin. We can all agree on that. Because Bitcoin
is the original blockchain, the Bitcoin fork was technically not a Bitcoin fork at all. In theory, we could run Bitcoin forked into as many different blocks as we want. We could have as many Bitcoins as we want. All those separate Bitcoin blockchains could coexist. There’s more to a blockchain |
