BU nodes go offline. but the diversity of other nodes kept going..

however if everything was just core.. expect another 2013 event.
diversity and more then one codebase is GOOD for the network

relying on one team that has one king is no better than fiat. and that is bad.

BU, xt, classic, and many others (including some core tweaked version, will all run happily together.
but blockstream(core) only want blockstream approved code running which if one goes down. they all go down.

So far only BUCoin Nodes went down (for the 2nd time) due to amateurish coding skills. There's no benefit of multiple implementations that disagree on the protocol / roadmap.

The Core implementation process is democratic.

BU is an extremely dangerous hostile takeover attempt by a centralist minority group. It's the third one after XTCoin and ClassicCoin. BU taking over would mean the end of a decentralized Bitcoin network. BUCoin is Paypal 2.0.

Ver can pay as many shills he wants - it's not gonna happen.
