so, we have an acknowledgment that there will be two blockchains.
No, we have an acknowledgment that there may be two blockchains.

clearly, coinbase is planning to move forward with the fork, and plans to offer full deposit/withdrawal support for both coins within a few days of the fork (compare to ETC or BCH).
Coinbase is just a service it can't move forward or backwards or stay the same with any fork!
they will do whatever is best for their business. and the difference between ETC/BCH with 2x is that 2x has a lot of hashrate (so far) supporting it.

no company of note has left the NYA. and all the miners are still signalling -- even f2pool.
technically nobody is signalling anything Smiley

roger ver has gone off the deep end and is taking the opposite approach to bitfinex, saying that segwit2x will be the default bitcoin blockchain and BTC ticker.
hah. this was priceless.
if it is really true i would love a reference. because Roger was calling bitcoin cash "default bitcoin" now it is SegWit2x! LOL

it will be interesting to see what happens if 90% + (or even a simple majority) of the hashpower does indeed back the fork.
i'm afraid 90%+ is equal to 100% because that 10% can not work on the previous chain with the difficulty and it may need a hard fork of its own and things will get very messy.
