That's exactly what I have been told. If things change we will then change our strategy as well.
I have a feeling if iXcoin becomes a player, a coin with a future, other pools will update as well, to remain competitive and to get fees.
This is why it's crucial we release a very good update this time around. Something incredibly useful and not just window dressing.
Other pools will follow the biggest pool, presuming there's something going on.
And it's not any more odd than 1 pool, barely 1 year old, controlling over 40% of Bitcoin.
We're very lucky to have CEX.io so let's make use of them for the best.
So, major decisions are based on feelings not economics or greed? This is what you have been told? Nothing in writing?
Other pools will no longer have any incentive to upgrade until IXC becomes a "player"
This is ludicrous thinking and dangerous.
