On 15 July 2017, the controversial Segregated Witness software upgrade was approved (\u00ablocked-in\u00bb). Segwit was intended to support the Lightning Network as well as improve scalability. The bitcoin price rose almost 50% in the week following SegWit’s approval. On 21 July 2017, bitcoin was trading at $2,748, up 52% from 14 July 2017’s $1,835. Supporters of large blocks who were dissatisfied with the activation of SegWit forked the software on 1 August 2017 to create Bitcoin Cash, becoming one of many forks of bitcoin such as Bitcoin Gold.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
