we can clearly see what end of this stupid scaling debate back in August and people like Roger Ver did to bitcoin. you can only imagine what things would have been like if they never existed or forked off a long time ago.

There will always be stupid debates, if not about scaling then about something else. These tend to suppress the price, but I tend to believe that some level of controversy helps keep Bitcoin strong and less fragile.

yeah, well the biggest one to this date was this one and it really kept bitcoin back.
I agree with the second part though. if it doesn't get out of hand and not get prolonged more than it has to, these disagreements can be helpful.

it could even be Ethereum when newcomers do enough exploring to see the cool stuff you can do with ETH.

Except that ETH wasn't made to be a currency. Tongue

... and it was premined, and has lot of bugs (another DAO is always around the corner) Tongue
