You don't get to have it both ways.


Miners who choose to support a contentious hard fork are voluntarily disenfranchising themselves; that status is obviously entailed by voluntary defection from the socioeconomic majority.

If their attack on Bitcoin becomes an actual threat (rather than a laughingstock like XT and Unlimited) to our coins, we may switch Core's proof of work in order to avoid a fork war and thereby prevent catastrophic consensus failure.

Should the giant Toominista mines become worthless ToominCoin dumps, they will have nothing to blame except their own brinksmanship.

I welcome a switch to Keccak (or CrypoNight).  It would decentralized mining and improve Bitcoin's antifragility.

f2pool, KnC, and Bitfury should seriously reconsider their determination to become de facto altcoin miners.

They need to understand the way Bitcoin's electronic intrusion countermeasures work - the harder you attack Bitcoin, the harder Bitcoin attacks you.

And you still haven't told us why it took you so long to get bored painting vanity bikesheds at your rump forum.

But it's nice you've come crawling back, with your curly tail tucked between your stumpy widdle pug legs.  Welcome home dear old Doctor Frappe!
