Yay 

100 blocks before technical lockin

Was the dip today related to the segwit lock in? People speculating on some drama to prevent lockin at this moment?

Great news nonetheless. A big step forward!

This is what we are waiting for. Now we can relax from those stressful  FUD news and watch bitcoin prices to shoot up I think its quite stable now but we expect more increase in the coming months.

Well it has been known for a while that Segwit would most likely be activated.

Nice, welcome to future of bitcoins.

It was just a formality. Even those miners who didn't agreed with the idea had to conform to the SegWit2x code. Else their blocks would have got rejected. I still don't know what the Core is going to do about this.

It will be.
The 2MB hard fork in November will theoretically have 92% of current miner support.
Now most pools won't follow through obviously but this split will be felt much more throughout the Bitcoin community as it will probably be divided more than ever.

However after some time people will make a choice and only the true Bitcoin will survive.

Just a minor correction. I thought that if the bull run continue, it could be a bubble because of how the price has skyrocketed in a few days.


It was indeed locked-in today. Now waiting for the activation. I don't believed that the locked-in has an effect of the price. Maybe someone who have bought bitcoin around ~$1900 just want to cash it out. Still at $3300 it is still holding which is a good sign. But I don't know if the market will continue to be bullish at this stage. The Segwit locked-in for me is already price in.
