In my opinion I think the worst thing that could be happen is that BU is only a possible prelude of a "private network" and a prelude of a way for patents registered.

Not sure how BU could be a prelude for patents registered since prior art clearly exists.

However Blockstream has not only filed for numerous patents but has the financial backing of companies that expect to profit from those patents.

It is the second-layer networks that are the prelude to the bitcoin patent wars.

Totally agree.

Now, mode exaggerated speculator "on":
· First step is to know how people and developers react when they have several and important choices (BU is an example).
· Second step is how the new network is accepted.
· Third step is the adoption of the new coin (or data) to transfer (reduce or cancel bitcoin use gradually).

One of the most important social question is: Why do I use Bitcoin and bitcoin?
One of the most important corporate question is: How can we introduce our blockchain?

Do you imagine the new private blockchain (maybe windowschain Grin

) integrated in all pc's because private companies have private contracts with private softwares?
Back to the Future IV: "Windows15 with windoswchain, transfer your annual taxes directly with a "little fee". WindowsCore integrated."
But it's only a terrible/sketch idea that i need to study and know more about bitcoin community and how blockchain is used by people.
