Fractal Bitcoin, launched its mainnet on September 9th, is essentially a hastily cloned copy of Bitcoin Core v24.0.1 with some consensus tweaks and code borrowed from Namecoin and Bitcoin Cash. It also started with a hefty 50% pre-mine, which is immediately available.

Key changes in Fractal Bitcoin include a mix of standard PoW and merged mined blocks, a 30-second target block time, continuous difficulty adjustment (copied from Bitcoin Cash), a maximum supply of 210 million coins, an initial block reward of 25 coins per block, halving every 2.1 million blocks, and the activation of OP_CAT.

It’s important to note that the pre-mine accounts for 50% of Fractal Bitcoin’s fully diluted supply. This means that miners would need two full years (an entire halving era for Fractal Bitcoin) to earn half of what the founding team rewarded themselves with on day one.

Despite its marketing materials mentioning “virtualization”, “recursion”, and “hierarchical scaling”, the actual implementation lacks any resemblance to these concepts. It appears to be nothing more than another shitfork.

Furthermore, the claim that Fractal Bitcoin is a Layer 2 solution or an extension to Bitcoin is false. It is a completely independent blockchain, a fork running the Bitcoin core codebase.

There have been attempts to suggest that assets on the Bitcoin mainnet can be retained on Fractalnet and vice versa, but this is not technically feasible. Transferring existing UTXO-based assets between unrelated blockchains is impossible.

In conclusion, Fractal Bitcoin is a poorly executed fork that appears to be nothing more than an attempt to capitalize on the popularity of Bitcoin. The pre-mine, the lack of real innovation, and the misleading marketing make it clear that this project should be avoided.

Thanks for the analysis! It's really helpful to see a breakdown of Fractal Bitcoin and how it compares to Bitcoin. The pre-mine and lack of innovation are major red flags, and the misleading marketing is concerning. I'll definitely steer clear of this project.

Thanks for the detailed breakdown. Seems like Fractal Bitcoin is just another attempt to cash in on Bitcoin's success with little substance. The pre-mine alone is a huge red flag, and the marketing is misleading at best. I'll be staying far away from this one.
