Nobody is against Bitcoin Unlimited forking and becoming what it is (an altcoin).
What we don't want is what they are doing: Trying to subvert BTC so they get to steal the BTC token. It's all a war for the BTC token, nothing more.
If they really thought their solution was better, they would fork already and use their own token and compete against BTC and people would freely choose, but they choose drama instead, at expense of every holder.
if you ignore the reddit propaganda scripts you will learn that things like BU, classic, XT, nbitcoin, BTCD and all the others do NOT want to dominate and OWN/control bitcoin.
they way a diverse and decentralised PEER network of many brands on THE SAME CHAIN/network.
all they ask is that the blocks are not stiffled at 1mb
yt the blockstream protagonists want to stifle the block to make people move their assets into the
blockstream:ELEMENTS(patented):LN
blockstream:ELEMENTS(patented):sidechain
blockstream:ELEMENTS(patented):segwit keys
simple solution
a true community uniting manatory activation of a 1 merkle 4mb block. where by native(legacy) key asset holders get more space AND segwit key opt-in users can disarm themselves to then be allowed to use voluntary services like sidechains/LN.
everyone becomes happy and the network remains peer, with only the services tiered.
however the blockstream soft agenda is a TIER network where people need to move funds to segwit keypairs to be top of the tier.
please look passed the reddit scripts, look passed the brand drama and look at things from the position of a diverse decentralised peer network. all will become clearer to you
The network doesn't improve by having competing clients, as adviced by satoshi: everyone should stick with the official (satoshi client) version. If you want different clients, create your own altcoin. This delusional notion of bitcoin being strengthened by different competing clients is stupid.
Segwit, LN, and so on are all open source protocols and anyone can develop anything they want on it. Don't confuse patent protection against trolls like Craig Wright with trying to monopolize technology.
