I am more comfortable with Jihan Wu than G.Maxwell and the Banking Cartels any day of the week.
Quite frankly, I'm not comfortable with any type of cartel. That's why I worded my original comment as "pick your poison." Sorry, I find De Beers, OPEC and the Columbian Drug Cartel just as bad as the banking cartel.
And as far as Hash % the Chinese Mining Pools have , they have over 51% on Bitcoin Cash and on Segwitcoin .
If I examined two patients and they both had small pox, I think both would have a rather poor prognosis...
And they both have the exact same check & balance , the economic influence of the people buying and selling the coin
and the regulations of the software that runs on the full nodes.
Although Bitcoin Cash still has the check and balance of the people buying and selling the coin, it does not have the check and balance of the regulations of the software that runs the full nodes, Jihan Wu has very heavy sway on the direction Bitcoin Cash takes when it comes to further software development.
If the above is not enough for you, then you need to find yourself a coin with no ASICS.
Why? What we need is more competition. Surely, making an ASIC isn't so difficult that only Bitmain and Bitfury can manufacture them from this point forward. It would be great if another competitor entered the GPU market as well... (Thank god Nvidia and AMD haven't also created their own mining farms. Not that I am aware of at least.)
I think the fact segwitcoin is failing to perform along with the fact the 2X fork is planning on a death battle of only 1 survivor,
plus the fact the miners may deactivate segwit , really brings to light the flaws of segwit and only a coin not using segwit is safe to keep your money
If Segwitcoin 1x & 2x fight to the death , whichever coin survives will be so damaged in the public eye, it will fall not long after.
Bitcoin Cash will become the premier coin as it is the only true Bitcoin that can come out of the 1x & 2X war without a scratch as neither can hurt Bitcoin Cash.
(Don't forget Bitcoin Cash coins are Safe , because it has no segwit addresses to steal from.)
All segwitcoin 1x & 2X can do is weaken or kill each other leaving Bitcoin Cash to shine brighter than them all.
Has there been a demonstration on a testnet that the segwit coins can indeed be stolen? I may not be from Missouri, but you still need to show me. Such a demonstration would seem to be trivial to produce, if it were indeed possible.
Which is why you are starting to see the Bitcoin Cash Price increase, as many have come to the exact same conclusions.
I will agree that the segwit coin up comming death match has many, including me, on edge. However, there are plenty of other coins to flee to. Which is why the altcoins have also enjoyed a bit of an uplift over the past few days IMHO.
