The point is, if the headlines read "Bitmain steals Segwit coins!" rational people are not going to move into another Chinese coin.

In further rebuttal of @sus_generis, as I have quoted from others who have explained that the likely first attack against BTC-SegWit is the slow difficulty readjustment of Bitcoin. Thus as BTC peaks then declines in price and then BCH rebounds in price, it will be much more profitable to mine BCH than BTC-SegWit. This in theory results in a spiral that collapses the price of BTC and drives the price of BCH up.

The theft of SegWit probably comes if ever, perhaps some months later, perhaps around the time of the November fork. Those who create the chaos profit by shorting everything and again you are trying to argue that all ASIC-mined blockchains will crater yet it was already explained to you that the lowest-cost miners remain just as profitable as they were before and continue to accumulate all the tokens for the next pump. And NEO is positioned with PoS to take that inflow that gets scared as shit of PoW with what is coming down the pike to discredit PoW. Maybe Vitalik will get his PoS crapola activated in time, but Ethereum is owned by the same TPTB behind the scenes who are the customers of Bitmain. Jihan is just the front man. The power brokers are unnamed as always.

Cryptocurrency as it stands now is a raping system. Bend over greater fools.
