I was under the impression that anyone could update and fork any coin at any time. IE I could release a new wallet update that removes prime nodes and removes any remaining "we will not premine"~HG coins.
If that release gains network consensus or exchange consensus it will become the primary fork and everyone elses transactions will become orphaned.
Unless there was some change to open source and p2p networks recently?
due to toxicity of the coin the only people left to give it any support (dev, marketing, etc) are the PC holders who JUST made an agreement about 100% stake so they are not going the route of eliminating the golden gooses.
just because you put lipstick on the pig and say HEY anyone can start fork in the spirit of open source, yes thats true but its not reality. network consensus will be dictated by these entities for the foreseeable future. just as was outlined in Mr. Garzas sick mind
edit:
im not saying that these people do not have good intentions and maybe they will lower the stake later on. who knows. but for now it doesnt look too good. investing any money before that issue is under control is a non-starter imo
