So say if you conspiracy theorists are correct and this is indeed one big scam. Does that mean theoretically ETC is also a scam because the Etheruem foundation would also hold the same amount of ETC coins after the split?

Also if the price of ETH tanked and people lost faith how easy would it be for legitimate projects running on the network such as Iconomi for example to move to another smart contract platform like UBQ or LSK for example?
