The only downside. Just have been buying eth instead for faster transactions. Just a matter of time before eth is adopted by merchants with it's low fee's

Agreed. BTC has failed miserably and seems to be going in the wrong direction!

BTC has failed?? I don't think so... it was due for a correction anyway! Besides when everyone gets their free money from the pumped up bitcoin fakes they will need to store it in the real decentralised Bitcoin.

Ofcourse , I'm saying it has failed in its original vision!

Maybe, whose to say!? Cryptos are still in there infancy... there is yet time to to patch things up!

I don't mind the bitcoin developers having a ding at each other as long as they don't screw the whole thing up....and we end up with good ol' fiat!

I agree that crypto is still in its infancy stage but patching things up becomes more difficult with huge amount of $$$ involved, human nature and its greed quickly kicking in, FOMO etc..

They may well screw it up if they are not careful. We may btc1, btc2, btc3, btc4, btc5, ......., btc-n with each coin belonging to dev group1, devgroup2, devgroup3, devgroup4, devgroup5 ............., devgroupn, respectively. We may see mini groups of a centralised version of bitcoins, bitcoins included.

They need to get their shit together now !

Me, I'll just ride the waves and enjoy the free coins! Can't put trust into a team of arogant human beings who put their self interest first at the expense of destroying the original purpose of the blockchain technology which is to decentralise everything!

@cryptonfused - Apologies I missed your response in the hustle and bustle of this hectic chatter. I enjoy your views and have decided to follow you to see more of your work.

Pertaining your response, you have probably hit the nail on the head!

Once BCH is accepted in Coinbase, that will be the game-changer,

Will everyone just dump it who receives it? I am curious to see how this plays out!
