The Coinbase Exchange announced that during the next month will begin to support the selection of cryptocurrency generated from Bitcoin forts. The company states in its statement that it is going to make these selections more acceptable, but at the same time stresses that it does not give any commercial support to specific currencies. Coinbase does not plan to support newly created assets in Coinbase Commerce.
Support for these names will also be introduced on the GDAX. Coinbase Custody promised the necessary technical support to build the infrastructure that will enable these choices.
Hard fork of digital names is created by splitting the blockchain to a certain date. In this division, the currencies have the same rules or histories - after which a new name is issued in its own way. Bitcoin Private (BTCP), Bitcoin Cash (BCH) and Bitcoin Gold (BTG) are the best-known Bitcoin Forces.
Strong words
At the Deconomy 2018 conference held this week in the Republic of South Korea, Roger Ver (Bitcoin.com CEO and Bitcoin Cash enthusiast) together with Blockson's chief strategist Samson Mowom debated Bitcoin's further scaling. Ver said that Mow and his team literally
"... destroyed the Bitcoin ecosystem on a thousand different altocins, causing delays in the adoption of cryptomenias around the world for several years."
conclusion
The announcement of Coinbase is definitely a positive message for all who have new digital currencies in their wallets created during Bitcoin forts. Allowing them to choose is another step on the way to getting rid of banks and other financial institutions. And who knows, if you take a coinbase from Coinbase too, it's just the author's speculation.
Thank you very much for your support.
