Personally, I don't want bitcoin to split. It is a confusing process and it will affect the businesses and merchants who allow Bitcoin as payment. It will basically stuff up the entire Bitcoin landscape. However, I still think we need to implement SegWit. Block size is a big issue and if we can actually reduce the space that a transaction takes up by 60%, then it will sole many problems, for now. But in the future we would probably need to use another method when more people become involved into Bitcoin.

What do you think?

EDIT: Sorry about the title. I meant to write August 1. Is there anyway I can edit that?
