SegWit can revitalize Bitcoin while Bitcoin Unlimited can only create another wall between users.
You don't believe it? Just check up what is happening to Litecoin, they are on a brink of SegWit's activation.
The price of LTC is soaring, media attention is higher than ever and community is positively thrilled.

http://litecoinblockhalf.com/segwit.php Litecoin is only ~6% away from a major breakthrough.



Funny, because Litecoin blocks are nowhere near full.  Also, they lowered the activation threshold to 75%, so we'll see if that causes pain on activation. I predict that some subtle bugs will appear shortly after activation. Then we can thank our lucky stars that the miners are vetoing Segfault.

What a sh*tshow it will be if Litecoin has to roll back Segwit...

Segwit is already live on the Bitcoin testnet.
Even some LN payments are going through Wink
Don't be so pessimistic.

but pessimism is all we HAVE!! don't take away our hate and FREEDOM!

...the above is sarcastic, if you can't tell.

Just a prediction. Perhaps a wager would be in order?

No hate. Are you selling any other straw men?
