All Classic can do is spin up nodes and rent some hash power. The miners are not going to change over and activate it. I hope Classic just dies off sooner than later.
What will be next? My vote for a cooler name is Bitcoin Reloaded.
I agree with your words.Let them have as much nodes as they want.Majority of them is probably spoofed.
Whatever.Let them do their parade while core is building out the network.
Good work takes some time, especially when scaling is not just done raising the blocksize, with a more and more loss of decentralization.
And imo it's not about a bigger blocksize, there are other reasons.Imo it's about the direction Bitcoin should be developed in the future.
Companies like Coinbase for instance might probably not like integration of Lightning Network and confidential transactions as this could threaten their business model.
However this is the roadmap we should go:
