RE: Segwit2x: Updated Code to be Released Tomorrow, Will This Address the Issues?

in #bitcoin8 years ago

Well, the granddaddy of digital currency will be around for a while longer, I suppose. I'm pretty new to this, but it seems Ethereum and the other altcoins have problems too. I'd really rather buy coins for long term investments so bitcoin still seems the safest bet. A split would suck, though, I agree.

Biggest issue is that concern of centralization that everyone fears the miners are trying to gain, kind of does look suspect and if that turns out to be the case it may mean lots of problems due to users not for that. I don't think it will die off but might be put in check if they go about this wrong. Biggest thing though, we need to keep up with it as Bitcoin users, a split could spell a lot of people losing a lot of money if they have their funds on a spot that does not agree with the set new chain. Its just a rocky moment I hope but a moment we definitely need to get past
