Luke Dashjr Says Exchanges Sell 'Fake Bitcoins' After Bitcoin Hard Fork

Bitcoin Knots developer Luke Dashjr said major exchanges are now selling “fake bitcoins” after a Bitcoin hard fork split his BLAKE2b chain from the network. According to BeInCrypto, he blamed platforms that did not run their own full nodes and called the SHA-256 chain “Spamcoin,” while the broader market has largely treated the forked chain as dead. No major exchange has listed the forked coin, and support for the BIP-110 fork peaked at 2.53%, far below the 55% threshold. Bitcoin (BTC) was trading near $80,670, up 3.83% in 24 hours.
