I find it deeply troubling that you seem to consider an environment of multiple implementations that constantly threaten to fork the Bitcoin network over their pet issues to be the healthiest system.

Nobody in their right mind would suggest something like this (seems something wrong with Veritas). We are talking about introducing competition in a consensus based algorithm. Do they not see how wrong this sounds? Bitcoin should remain as is.

In fact you just need a couple of phone calls to arrest Blockstream devs and stop Chinese mining pools to disable bitcoin network TODAY

Arrest them for what, exactly? The latter doesn't change anything -- if hash rate drops, miners elsewhere will pick up the slack, assuming it is profitable. If hash rate drops extremely quickly, we can release an update that causes the difficulty algorithm to update faster.

The thinking is that if Classic took over right now, this problem (fear mongering) would magically disappear. Roll Eyes

I am beginning to think you are even more clueless than franky. But no one could top VS on the short bus candidate list. That guy is a Grade A Retard.

He wasn't always like this; something drastically changed in the recent months. I wonder why. Cheesy
