I'm asking whether Bitcoin XT will be traded as a new coin or not. It's a huge factor.
so.
a) No
b) Yes
?
No, man, the only difference would be that people with XT will experience faster speeds and it would not be a new coin, that would destroy the authenticity of bitcoin and if such a day comes when bitcoin XT becomes a separate coin and not a part of bitcoin core anymore, I will shut down all my crypto businesses, cash out whatever I get and leave this digital world behind and retire, I am too old for this shit
I suppose this won't happen. Bitcoin developers may say (and do) whatever they want, but once the Bitcoin owners understand that it is not them who has the last word, things will settle down. The recent commotion reminds me of what happened in Linux when some lead developers wanted to fork the kernel...
They can create a new coin but can't change the existing one without consensus (true decentralization)
