RE: BitMEX dumped their BCH and credited all users!

in #bitcoin7 years ago (edited)

I am not even going to try to move my remaining BTC. I fear the last amounts of BTC that I have will become dust and will one day just be a way to get airdrops for new altcoins.

I wonder if these BCH lows are more sustainable being caused by real selling of BCH on to the market..

Sort:  

In general, if you have lots of "dust" in one wallet, it may be smart to try to consolidate it into one UTXO - that is, send everything in the wallet to yourself with the lowest possible fee.

If the wallet does not support transactions with artificially low transaction fees and RBF, it may be smart to export the wallet seed (or private keys) into a wallet supporting it, i.e. electrum. Try to send with 72 satoshi/byte in transaction fee - there is a non-zero chance that the transaction will go through during the weekend or the next.

You will not lose the "airdrop"-quality of bitcoins even if you have stuck unconfirmed transactions.

Yes, but fees are falling now. I think bitcoiners are more accepting of altcoins now. We can use the bitcoin blockchain for buying houses and new cars.
