If it really happened, what's the worst consequence that japan will face? Whether to damage the Japanese economy ??
Is not this japan now accept bitcoin as legal currency?
WOw, Japan legalize bitcoin. That could be problem when bitcoin become zero value. I think there won't be crash chain because the vote for segwit2x is 80 %. If there is split chain will not cause crash 20 % voters who oppose segwit2x  will run new bitcoin.
