..SegWit is to prepare the network for Blockstream proprietary off-chain scaling solution that will allow them to 'shift' network fees away from miners and into their own hands.
It is nothing less than a Coup d'état*
.. hmmm..
no - I'm afraid it's not.
ANYONE can use SEGWIT / LIGHTNING NETWORK / SIDECHAINS / OFF-CHAIN scaling solution. A.N.Y.O.N.E.
It is OPEN SOURCE.
It is NOT PROPRIETARY.
I'll admit - It is quite complicated (to set up an LN network / Sidechain), and requires SKILL / KNOWLEDGE, and yes, if you wanted someone to set it up for you, Blocksteam would be my first choice. Is that a crime now ?
so please.. '..It's a little early in the morning for Kung Fu..'

@OP - Can you come up with a FIX for txn malleability (the root of MANY issues) ? If you can, I'm all ears.
