RE: Bitcoin is becoming a forking nightmare

in #bitcoin8 years ago

F*rk Bitcoin.

Can it scale? Can it truly handle all the Tx/s needed to do what the world needs?

Besides, bitcoin and blockchain is already incredibly difficult to understand, when these forks happen, things get even more bizarre, this will only slow down adoption rate of crypto-currencies.

But, the trend of more and more adoption will continue, maybe not so much with bitcoin, but maybe with the better, quicker, safer and more powerful delegated proof of stake based blockchains.

I completely agree. I think it's important to get the message out so that people have a chance to understand the risks involved with Bitcoin and it's forks. Eggs and baskets spring to mind! Once you understand that the foundations are on shifting sand, you prepare and build differently.

Those currently outside the crypto market are not so much of a concern because when blockchain tech is ready, they don't have to know what it is built upon, they can concern themselves with the tools that sit upon the solid foundations, using the dapps and participating in the communities they like.
