However BF is useless vip club imho. Feds may shutdown them. I see no impact on bitcoin network at all.
Pressure on BF -> BF is cooperating with regulators -> developers are cooperating with regulators -> small changes in the client to better track transactions -> changes in the protocol to roll back unwanted transactions
-> hard fork (and everyone can stick with the best version of Bitcoin)
Then they allow taxes to be paid using their-fork-coins. Sheeps go buy those (whoa! government endorsed bitcoin!!) and their fork explodes in value, then we are left as the weird minority holding useless coins.
