Apparently, Jihan Wu has been covertly using some patented exploit called asicboost to gain 20%+ efficiency on his hardware thats incompatible with SegWit. It all makes sense now. Hope he gets his ass sued off.

Shills care to chime in?

Yup. Now everything is clear and now we know why everyone must buy LTC.

FUD. Asicboost been known about for a long time and Bitmain holds the patent in China.

All ASIC manufacturing will be in China.

Sorry Bitcoin will never get SegWit nor LN, because Bitmain will block it on Bitcoin. And the whales of Bitcoin will always block larger blocks for the reasons I have explained else where.

But Bitmain is unable to block SegWit on Litecoin, even though they tried to.

Now we know why the other ASIC manufacturers are not against SegWit. They don't want to pay patent fees. Perhaps Baron Wu offered some deals to some others to get them to join his efforts.
