RE: Bitmain Threatens Hard Fork if User Activated Soft Fork Occurs

I see it as being a China Bitcoin and a American Bitcoin, following for example the split of ethereum. Perhaps they could share regional activity under one valuation or they could divide and people would choose sides, the one with the most devs probably will be favored similar to ethereum. It already does not have enough nodes so decentralized is no longer one of its features. It will no longer be for micro payments(cost me 9 usd yesterday to send 20 usd) but for high value transfers 10K+ it is still the best portal coin for entry to the digital economy because it has the infrastructure required. Overall it will be fine if they hard fork, no one knew what would happen to ethereum also and they are cruzin along just fine today. I think most of the anxiety is around it being a first for BTC as it was programmed to never split or be taken over, so at least we will learn something from the experience regardless of what happens. Thanks for sharing, Steem ON!
