In the event of a soft fork we have:
1.) The old chain exists with a more permissive set of rules.
2.) The new chain exists with a more restrictive set of rules.
In a hard fork we have:
1.) The old chain exists with a more restrictive set of rules.
2.) The new chain exists with a more permissive set of rules.
This is a cool explanation.
There is no difference between the dangers of a soft fork and a hard fork.

So they look exactly the same during a chain split.
But there is no chain split on a soft fork.. That's the WHOLE point ?
started out as sw pump but when coinbase adopted it, could actually get some more use, that is much more real fundamental value than sw.
LOL.. pls.. Give credit where it's due.. Maybe CoinBase added it BECAUSE of SW.. or at least Coinbase were convinced into adding it, becuase of SW.
It's not as bad as you make out.. Come and Join us! (If you want a $10k BTC.. that is.).. still plenty of room..
