Frequently Asked Questions

Is BC2 a fork of Bitcoin?

No. BC2 has a fresh genesis block. It's not a fork of the Bitcoin blockchain—it's a clean implementation of the same protocol, starting from scratch in 2025.

Is BC2 competing with Bitcoin?

No. BC2 positions itself as a "sister chain"—a complement to Bitcoin, not a competitor. Different genesis, same math, parallel option.

Was there a premine?

No. Every BC2 coin is mined through proof-of-work. No founder allocation, no VC tokens, no premine. Fair launch from day one.

Who created BC2?

BC2 was created by a pseudonymous developer known as "BrokenMachine" in 2025, following the Bitcoin tradition of pseudonymous development.
