Well, I really hope that BIP180 gets accepted and implemented before a possible BU fork (although in fairness it's looking less likely, but that's only on the basis of wat these untrustworthy characters are saying, which isn't wort alot). The situation could be even worse without BIP180, as SPV clients like BitSquare won't be able to distinguish between the BU blockchain and the Bitcoin blockchain without it. And that's without the problems of the empty block or chain re-merging attacks that the BU miners could perform.

I heard of them wanting to rebrand itself and start calling themselves bitsq.
But why?
So it will appeal more to the hippies on Wall Street with their Nasdaq and TSX synonyms?

Branding is important. If it helps appeal to more people, then there is no harm in having a trendy name.
As we know, the makers of Liberty Dollar got into trouble because the name contained dollar.

This week Bitcoin.com chatted with Manfred Karrer, the founder of the decentralized cryptocurrency exchange Bitsquare.
The platform Bitsquare considers itself to be the first fully decentralized cryptocurrency exchange that operates with privacy-centric foundations. The Bitsquare protocol was created in 2014, offering bitcoin trading against a number of altcoins and national currencies with no third party centralization. Karrer gives our readers some insight on the platform’s recent development, its rebranding phase, and the upcoming DAO white paper.

They have 2000 users so far, but I think exchanges ilke Bitsquare, decentralized, easy to use, designed not for constant speculating but for those who just want sell/buy altcoins once per day, are the future. They did not spend much effort on promotion and haven't translated their app to to other languages, as they say themselves, and I think that's why they are comparatively not known.
