Just now saw this. Not sure if others have seen yet, or if it's new, but it's pretty fucked up. Take a look:
"Bitcoin Cash ("Bcash") was created out of tension among early Bitcoin investors over rising transaction fees and increasingly divergent opinions on the best on-chain scaling solutions for Bitcoin. Bitcoin Cash also prioritizes strict adherence to what is called Satoshi's "vision" for the original Bitcoin. Viewing peer to peer transactions as the core value proposition of the network and the factor that should be optimized versus other competing factors like security.
Versus the more progressive development philosophies of the Bitcoin core software contributors. Who view security as the factor that should be optimized for with the whitepaper reflecting a rough blueprint or important historical document.
The execution of the fork on August 1, 2017 led to confusion amongst investors who tried to claim, sell, or spend their BCH due to inconsistent exchange tickers, branding misinformation, and incorrect address use. Bitcoin Cash users lose coins when attempting to send BTC to a BCH address and vice versa. Recognizing this issue Bitcoin Cash migrated to a new address format in January 2018 to improve usability and reduce the chances of errors leading to lost coins.
Bitcoin Cash expects to ultimately become more decentralized and widely used than Bitcoin by scaling transaction throughput faster via a higher paced development cycle for technological improvements significantly reducing transactions costs versus Bitcoin.
It is expected due to the technology requirements needed to scale the network. Individual users will not be able to run nodes easily via PCs like they can for the Bitcoin network making it potentially less censorship resistant than the Bitcoin blockchain"
Let's see:
- labels Bch Bcash
- mocks with Satoshi's "vision" (conjures up BSV, tin-foil hat conspiracy theorists, cult images, etc)
- Nothing about Bch makes it inherently less secure. It just is because that's how the prices and the mining power shaped out. Hard forks and security are two separate concepts
- "Versus the more progressive development philosophies of the Bitcoin core software contributors." lol.
- sloppy incomplete sentences. Bot? Non-native English speaker? Not sure what to make of that aspect.
- then we've got basically an entire paragraph devoted to shitting on bch
- after acknowledging bch reduces transaction costs, basically states that btc is more censorship resistant because of nodes
Anyways. Anyone know if we can do anything about this to get Blockfolio to adopt a legitimate description of Bitcoin Cash?
