Yep and this news has had a major impact in the current bull run of altcoins and also bitcoin before a dump off. I really would expect the price of bitcoin to climb once again since now it is seen as one unified coin again.
It'll be extremely interesting to see how the price reacts to when segwit2x gets reannounced.
They're saying that it's just postponed, so not entirely cancelled.
Canceled segwit2x or not is not important. The main thing that the problem of imperfection bitcoin left and it needs to be addressed. Bitcoin is an innovative asset and if its not correct he can lose the fight with its competitors. Interests Shterev can not be higher than the interests of the entire community.
