Yes what you say is true, and bitcoin may become stuck. But we have hard forked before, when has a living entity changed a part of its DNA? It still remains a lot more flexible than the things we normally refer to when talking about evolution. I agree with what you say, I just think you just underestimate the flexibility of software.

A second point I would like to make (sorry if it's been addressed before) is that unless something other than mining comes along as a solution to centralised ledgers, network strength becomes the major imperative. Bitcoin managed to get out of the danger zone because nobody knew or cared what crypto was while it had time to build strength. Now the boat has sailed, any new coin that uses the concept of mining (an alternative to this wouldn't be an alt-coin, it would be a new paradigm all together) will always have trouble getting of the ground.

Anyway, given your dismissive response to my last post I'm going to assume that I'm in a troll thread and probably stop trying to have a pleasant conversation here.

edit: I know DNA gradually degrades over the course of a lifetime due to copying errors and the like, this is not what I'm referring to. I'm talking about a change on a cellular level that enables you to grow a third arm for example.
