It's not just segwit, it's the number of transactions that has gone down
Actually right now we're below January 2017 levels, far before the spam attack



The good news is that it will be expensive for the spammers to flood the network. Let's dare them to do it again to show the whole community that Bitcoin's blocks can reach 2mb because Segwit.

Let's just ...not!

Bitmain could just unplug their miners for a few hours and the whole capacity gained by segwit will be destroyed by higher blocks time. I just hope that they still have two brain cells active and don't try to put such plan into action.

Hahaha. Bitmain would not dare. What it would start is a stronger debate for a POW change through a UAHF. But if Jihan Wu wants his mining cartel to die then no one is stopping him from killing it.
