One of your leaders , Adam Back, thinks users would be ok paying $100 / fee.
Outright lie. Then again, what to expect from someone with a history of lying and shilling for Ver? Roll Eyes

i've been also wondering why bitmain is pro segwit with litecoin, but they are against segwit with bitcoin

i think the answer is clear now, with litecoin they have not all the fee because there is no delay in transactions due to the block being already 4 x before segwit

with bitcoin yes, so they are just greedy miners  that want more money and nothing more
If you think that is the answer, then you're just as uninformed. The main reason is covert ASICBOOST.

I think Jihan is just getting nervous and it has become personal at this point.
It doesn't even matter anyway. Aside from turbulence in the price, I couldn't care less what he wants to do with JihadChain. I have no idea how any rational mind, who joined the ecosystem for the ideas laid down by Satoshi, would want to participate in JihadCoin. The mining monopoly/cartel is the true cancer to Bitcoin, and the worst thing to happen to it since Mt. Gox (arguably).

Update: Correct somewhat misleading sentence.
