So you have probably noticed that Bitcoin is crashing and crashing hard. So I read here: https://www.cryptocoinsnews.com/bitcoin-to-hardfork/ that Bitcoin is doing a hardfork. Is that the new fashion these days or is this just greed? Have the BTC fractions seen what happened to ETH and they think that they can get free money like the ETH/ETC case? I mean the internal struggle has to get resolved, but hardforking is not the way in my opinion... What do you guys think? Has anyone researched this further what are the hardfork alternatives? I am going to dive into it today.
Also, I just saw that BitFInex is hacked or something. Read there blog announcement here: http://blog.bitfinex.com/uncategorized/security-breach/
So what do you think is driving the price down? The hardfork or the hack or both? My money is on both. With the leading cause being the hack.
But there is a light at the end of the tunnel, SteemIt is in the green and growing and this might be a good chance for SteemIt to do some advertising and attract more attention to itself and taking a bite out of the market share of BTC and ETH while they are in turmoil...
