Bitcoin Segwit2x Fork

Wat is Bitcoin Segwit2x?

Bitcoin Segwit2x is een voorgestelde wijziging die bedoeld is om de snelheid en de kosten van Bitcoin transacties te verbeteren. Als de upgrade niet universeel geaccepteerd is, kan het twee Bitcoin-blokketens maken via een fork van het Bitcoin-netwerk.

Meer weten over forks? Lees het op de Coinbase blog.

Zijn jouw fondsen op Coinbase veilig?

Ja. Eventuele fondsen op Coinbase voor, tijdens en na de fork blijven veilig bewaard.

Wanneer zal de fork precies gebeuren?

De Bitcoin Segwit2x fork zal plaatsvinden wanneer blok # 494.784 wordt gemined. Dit wordt verwacht op 16 november.

Wordt er een nieuwe munt gecreëerd met de fork?

Ja. Het resultaat van de fork zal twee verschillende blokketens zijn, wat betekent dat er twee verschillende digitale activa zijn.

Hoe gaan deze munten heten?

Na de fork gaat Coinbase door met de huidige bitcoin blockchain als Bitcoin met het symbool ‘BTC’. Coinbase zal naar de nieuwe blockchain die uit de fork als voortvloeit verwijzen als Bitcoin2x met het symbool ‘B2X’. Meer informatie: Coinbase blog.

Wat moet ik doen tijdens de fork?

Wanneer je jouw Bitcoins op Coinbase hebt staan hoef je niks te doen! Alle Coinbase-gebruikers met een BTC-balans op het moment van de fork worden automatisch gecrediteerd met een gelijk aantal in B2X.

Wat als mijn kooporder in uitvoering was tijdens de fork?

U ontvangt alleen B2X voor het bedrag in bitcoin die aanwezig is in uw account op het moment van de fork. Aan het in afwachting zijnde BTC-aankopen op het moment van de fork wordt geen B2X toegekend.

Bijvoorbeeld, als u 1 BTC op 16 november koopt en betaald via uw bankrekening, zal deze aankoop waarschijnlijk nog 5 werkdagen in afwachting zijn, omdat we wachten op uw geld dat onderweg is van uw bank. In deze omstandigheid ontvangt u uw 1 BTC na de fork, maar ook niet 1 B2X.

Officiele berichtgeving van Coinbase:

Dear Fabian,

We wanted to remind you that the upcoming Bitcoin Segwit2x fork is projected to take place on November 16 and will result in 2 bitcoin blockchains.

In our effort to make Coinbase the most trusted, safe, and easy-to-use digital currency exchange, we are working to ensure we maximize your benefit from this event. So, following the fork:

Any user storing Bitcoin on Coinbase at the time of the fork will be credited with an equal amount of the new Bitcoin2x asset on the Bitcoin2x blockchain. No action is required – we will automatically credit your account. If you have 5 Bitcoin stored on Coinbase before the fork, you will have 5 Bitcoin and 5 Bitcoin2x following the event.
Coinbase users will be able to trade both Bitcoin and Bitcoin2x shortly after the fork.
Coinbase will disable buys, sells, sends and receives for Bitcoin and Bitcoin2x approximately 24 hours before the fork. We will re-enable them following the fork once it’s safe to do so.

For a detailed timeline of events surrounding the fork please see our blog post and FAQ.

Thank you,
Coinbase Team

Dear Coinbase customer,

There have been a number of developments with Bitcoin Segwit2x since our last update. No action is required and all funds stored on Coinbase remain safe.

Last week, the Segwit2x development team announced they would no longer continue with the project. In addition, a significant portion of miners and other community leaders withdrew their support for the fork. However, despite these developments, a small number of miners may attempt to go forward with a fork.

We wanted to provide clarity about the potential outcomes of the fork and what Coinbase will do in each scenario.

To protect customer funds, Coinbase will disable Bitcoin sends and receives at 2 am Pacific Time on November 17th, and disable buys and sells an hour before the fork, which is currently predicted to occur between 6am to 8am Pacific Time on November 17th. All functionality will be re-enabled shortly afterwards.

Scenario 1: Network is unusable
If support for the fork remains at current levels or decreases, the Bitcoin2x network will be unusable. Coinbase will not support withdrawals or trading as it will not be possible to move these assets. Currently we believe this is the most likely scenario.

If the network gains support at a later date, we will enable Bitcoin2x withdrawals from the platform.

Scenario 2: Network is usable
If transactions are being confirmed at a reasonable speed and miner support is strong, we will allow Coinbase customers to withdraw Bitcoin2x. We will not immediately enable buys and sells as previously stated, but we may enable them at a later date.

We will keep customers updated through our blog.

Thank you,

Coinbase Team
