Stacks of Cash: Weekly Roundup #1

**Stacks of Cash**  Week of August 17, 2020 The best of Bitcoin Cash this week **The Discourse** The Bitcoin Cash community has continued to push forward amid controversy surrounding the November 15th upgrade, putting the ecosystem at a crossroads while miners and developers deliberate how to proceed. Tensions still run high with **calls for ABC developer Amaury Sechet to end hostilities**, **further debate of how IFP negatively impacts the ecosystem as a whole**, and **Roger Ver speaking out against ABC**’s action as damaging to the ecosystem with a plea to reconsider. More services continue to join the initiative including **Read.Cash announcing their support for BCHN****,** **as well as member.cash** https://read.cash/@NilacTheGrim/on-why-amaury-should-resign-78e8e314 https://old.reddit.com/r/btc/comments/iby7i4/how_the_ifp_can_and_will_corrupt_and_centralize/ https://read.cash/@RogerVer/bitcoin-cash-was-going-great-until-this-ifp-nonsense-4065e280 https://old.reddit.com/r/btc/comments/ifio6n/readcash_will_support_bchnbchd_side_of_the_split/ https://old.reddit.com/r/btc/comments/ifl3fl/membercash_will_stick_with_the_bchn_compatible/ **Haipo Yang of CoinEx/ViaBTC** has released its stance as supportive of Bitcoin ABC which will remain the default mining pool with an optional BCHN mining pool, **shortly after declaring neutrality**. **Yang also notes his belief that Bitcoin Cash is defined only by Bitcoincash.org** and Bitcoin ABC, which was met with much criticism by the community. Haipo’s statements have already spurred some to **begin boycotting CoinEx**. Mining provider ASICseer **is advising its clients to move away from ViaBTC’s pools.** https://twitter.com/yhaiyang/status/1297424037279236096?s=21 https://twitter.com/yhaiyang/status/1297377355602653189 https://twitter.com/yhaiyang/status/1297561053123895296?s=21 https://old.reddit.com/r/btc/comments/if3fec/i_hereby_announce_moving_out_my_trading_stash/ https://twitter.com/ASICseer/status/1297384047610486785

Bitcoin Cash Node quickly built support this week with Binance, P2Pool, Bitcoin.com, easy2mine, Houbi, btc.top, and Okex making blocks in solidarity for a no-IFP ASERT upgrade making up approximately 60% of BCH hashpower with 39% of signaling pools showing BCHN support, and 0% for ABC.   Market prices have declined by 13% from a high of $325 to $285 following most other currency pairs into a longer consolidation pattern.

Development **Bitcoin ABC** Bitcoin ABC has **released its November client that maintains the divisive IFP funding model** that will reject all non-IFP blocks with some notable differences from the earlier IFP proposal, marking an official stance that ABC is willing to fork away from the **no-IFP** miners if it does not achieve majority hashpower. https://old.reddit.com/r/btc/comments/iak799/abc_has_chosen_to_go_ahead_with_forking_bitcoin/ https://www.reddit.com/r/btc/comments/i5c0cj/joint_statement_from_bch_miners_regarding_bitcoin/ **Bitcoin Cash Node** The Bitcoin Cash Node development team continues full steam ahead for the November 15th upgrade with the **release of BCHN v22.0.0** featuring the new **ASERT difficulty adjustment protocol** spearheaded by Jonathan Toomim.  https://read.cash/@bitcoincashnode/announcing-bitcoin-cash-node-v2200-f3927fa2 https://read.cash/@jtoomim/bch-upgrade-proposal-use-asert-as-the-new-daa-1d875696 **Flowee the Hub** Tomas Zander’s Flowee expands its capabilities with **its latest release of version 2020.5** that includes a host of fixes and updates to its developer focused modular client, most notably a preview of the new **wallet client Flowee Pay**.
