Is it true the Chinese are launching Toomincoin?

No, it is not true. There was a proposal on 8btc (which is not censored at all) by a random person.

Strange way to phrase that, as if the contrary would be a (good) thing. Also, this came a day(?) after that mysterious call for clarity from HaoBTC, a strong supporter of Core, almost as strong a Core supporter as BTCC.

He announced some "Terminator Plan" which is horribly risky just to gain additional 3 TPS.

The HK agreement includes something similar to this horribly risky plan, let that sink in.

The idea of the posters plan was to bring the 75% activation point to 90%, those in favor of strong consensus should favor such a development.

This post was on r/bitcoin and labeled as FUD for a while but was eventually taken down. The 'people' at r/btc have been basically celebrating, using new idiotic phrases such as Corexit, even though there is zero evidence that any major pool would participate in this.

While I agree this seems to be largely conjecture and a wish-post on 8btc, the lack of any strong formal (or weak informal) denial was deafening. Keep in mind the context of Luke-Jr basically flicking HaoBTC off his shoulder the day prior.

Keep in mind that the comment section on that website can be easily manipulated (as long as you have 1 person to talk Chinese for you).

Unlike here, where staff are paid to remain staunchly objective.
