Was reading about Segwit
here so from what i understand a hardfork is basically making bitcoin more like an alt and a softfork will just enhance transaction speeds and not necessary changing existing code...as the 'bitcoin core' camp intends to just make transactions smaller which still keeps it as bitcoin unlike bitcoin unlimited which changes the chemistry of bitcoin to an altcoin...If it sounds as simple as that why is this still debatable??? BU is an alt nothing more....who are the real stake holders to implement these changes
