Bitcoin fork divides Bitcoin community

All good from the maidsafecoin point of view. No real risks here.

[8/19/15, 10:01:50 AM] Daniel: Hello
[8/19/15, 10:02:33 AM] Daniel: is there an affect that the bitcoin fork will have on maidsafecoin
[8/19/15, 10:03:22 AM] Daniel: I see in the dialogue someone asked as well
[8/19/15, 10:03:28 AM] Daniel: and there hasn’t been an answer yet
[8/19/15, 10:10:53 AM] Adam Chamely: State of the layer update from Aug 18th - Reddit - Dive into anything
[8/19/15, 10:12:13 AM] Adam Chamely: @Daniel, we discussed this in the meeting yesterday. There is no impact at this time. Omni tx’s will still be based on the existing blockchain as will the reference clients. If/when we decided to add support for the proposed xt fork there will be further discussions/announcements about how it will work
[8/19/15, 10:12:51 AM] Daniel: on a basic level, the coins won’t be compromised
[8/19/15, 10:14:37 AM] Adam Chamely: No. all omni tx’s are currently taking place on the original blockchain not the forked chain. i.e. someone would have to intentionally go out of their way to try and create an omnitx on the forked blockchain for a tx to end up there
[8/19/15, 10:15:51 AM] Adam Chamely: but even if they did, none of the integrators/exchanges/software in the omni group are looking at that blockchain yet so it would not be a valid tx
[8/19/15, 10:17:01 AM] Adam Chamely: At the end of the day All omni tx’s are validated and referenced against mastercore and soon the new omnicore daemon. Those are the reference clients which are based on bitcoin-qt and do not leverage/monitor/handle the XT fork blockchain
[8/19/15, 10:17:31 AM] Adam Chamely: What they say is what goes. So no XT forks for now
[8/19/15, 10:18:21 AM] Daniel: Thank you Adam for your response, and to the team for making it possible the maidsafecoin
