The UASF guys are going to implement BIP148 on Aug 1st however the Segwitx2 group is planning a pre-emptive strike, which is to sneak in this Segwitx2 code (which possibly maybe very buggy as its a rushed piece of code and it hasnt got the Core devs working on it, BTW the core guys kept this whole Bitcoin thingy going for the last 7-8 yrs without any major hacks or flaws).
You know that the original bitcoin, the true coin ended with a hundred millions bitcoins more that it was designed and it had to be forked?
Bitcoin has already forked at least two times the hard way and a few times soft forked.
But we might see it
ganged forked on August 1.
That sounds messed up.
But seriously, Im hoping Bitcoin remains the same and the best minds in this field come together (with no agenda) to help scale Bitcoin safely, once and for all. So we can have a working system for the world to use. In the same way the world uses the internet. And if in the future an update/patch is needed then we as species come together again to fix it. But in reality, this is all wishful thinking on my part. And in all reality, people will always have an agenda and will ruin things for the majority.
Status quo is the best way for NOW (leave things as they are until a future scaling method is agreed upon) or BIP148 this thing to the moon boys! Jk.
