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?
Yes you can ironically EDIT that mate, though that's a good title as every one only talks about the day 1 but nothing about the day after that.
The day after August the first I could imagine Wu jumping up and down in a 6 stars hotel on a honeymoon king size bed shouting how he just managed
To earn hundreds of millions by causing a chaotic environment around the Bitcoin community and then he just bought all the dumped coins.
The entire crypto community will get scammed by Chinese fuckers once more. After that, in a few weeks, months, everything will be back to normal and poor unsuspecting weak hands will be asking themselves where did their money go?
