What is Bitcore?
Bitcore (BTX) is a new cryptocurrency born out of the SegWit versus Blockchain Unlimited debate offering a radical approach:
It combines the base ideas of both sides, implementing 20 MB blocks with SegWit already activated.
On top of that other new techs are already implented like Bloom and a ASIC-resistant mining algorithm.
It was released and is currently worked on by the talented devoloppers of Bitsend.
NOW THE BEST THING ABOUT IT:
If you are a holder of Bitcoin, you can claim your BTX for free, 1:1 according to your BTC holdings!
The idea is that BTX has basically the same specifications as BTC, meaning 16M coins in current circulation, 21M maximum in about 100 years, 10 minute block times BUT offering some great tech advantages while maintaining low transaction fees.
If you had bitcoin in your wallet at the time of the genesis-snapshot at Bitcoin block 463619 (minted : 2017-04-26 17:10:01), then you can claim your BTX via the official site: https://bitcore.cc/
Bitcore is already listed on coinmarketcap: https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/bitcore/

Great News for Ledger and Trezor owners please find Informationen in Twitter:
This is really great.
Can we safely import our Exodus private keys in Coinomi to claim the BTX? Or should we transfer our BTC funds to a new wallet address first (for safety) before importing?
Definitly transfere your BTC to a new wallet address first. This is the safe way to do it and also good practice for any of the recent forks.
Thank you xwerk!
You're welcome. Interesting to see how this project will advance. Hope more people take note.
I forgot to mention the devs are actually the guys behind Bitsend, which is a pretty advanced crypto by itself.
great airdrop BTX. btx is 2 dollar worth.
It now went up to $10!
Is there a wallet for BTX? Thanks
Sure, you can find all relevant info in the bitcointalk forum.

hello, just a question. Do you manually claim the 3% per week bitcores or do they just deposit it to your bitcore wallet automatically? Is that 3% per week of the total amount of bitcores you have in your wallet? Thanks in advance!
You don't have to do anything until November to receive the 3% and that one big 25% drop as long as you have at least 10 BTX in one address! :)
great job thanks
I want to wallet to android.
Download coinomi wallet for android.
I cant download BTX wallet because of I have android only.
