And crypto will be better off because of it. Ethereum has a better network with more utility (contracts) and can do currency just like BTC.
But what happens once this issue is resolved. Either one (BTC or BTU) will gain dominance at the cost of all other alts.
Why is this true? I would view BTU as a new alt if it gained dominance(a fork is much more likely) as would many other crypto enthusiasts. BTC doesn't have the organizational structure to maintain #1 marketcap and prevent more major forks.
