🚨 A NEW BITCOIN FORK PROPOSES REDISTRIBUTING SATOSHI'S COINS
Veteran Bitcoin developer Paul Sztorc proposes a fork that would reassign part of Satoshi Nakamoto's approximately one million coins.
The plan involves cloning Bitcoin onto a new chain called eCash with its own native tokens.
"If you have 4.19 BTC at the time of the fork, you receive 4.19 eCash. You can sell them, hold them, or ignore them completely," he stated on X.
However, certain wallets like Satoshi's would be labeled as "inactive," and their balances redistributed under the new rules.
Supporters argue that this could "resurrect lost coins" and make the supply more functional.
Its critics directly call it theft, warning that it sets a dangerously dangerous precedent by rewriting property rules.
