Any chance the BTC mining collective would simply block XCP (and MSC) transactions altogether, making the whole protocol useless?

High chance.

What would be their motivation to block these transactions?

The more transactions are in the block, the more data miner must submit to network. Due to network propagation, if some other miner
mines block with much less transactions in almost the same moment his block will most likely propagate much faster and thus orphan
block first miner mined, one with many transactions. In other words, increased number of transactions will never be cheered by miners.

Some might do it simply because they can and that is perfectly fine.

BTW, even though there is no guarantee for so many things when it comes to XCP there is 724.8935 BTC burned already at the time of
this post. Can't belive it. If I or someone else asked for 0.01 BTC for free no one would send it. All you morons would just go over that
the same way you would go over a guy on a street asking for a change to buy food. Fuck you! I wish you lose all your money invested.
