Yes, B2X i.e. . Yet it still has to successfully mine.
Anyway, point is that NONE of BTC forks (maybe BCH differs) has clear consensus rules. None is above any suspect of being a "private" coin.
So let them come.
Right. BCH is a rare case so soon other 'fork coin' come under that ideal.
You nailed the point: if they want SEGWIT, bigger block size (which is detrimental for miners, BTW) and Replay Protection at the ready, they are targeting the wrong blockchain. They should target BCH.
B2X, must be said, will use X11, which is an ASIC mineable algo and now it's 2nd generation of these. So I'm not convinced about it.
But, back to the route, to BTG that is.
Actually it is a mining only coin. What could be easily done to make it a HODL coin?
Simple, introduce a mixed POW/PoS environment modifying the total number of coins, which would make it an inflationary coin but the result -HODL- would be granted.
Everyone, even those with limited resources, would be able to get some stakes and HODL them.
How is it that BTG minds haven't thought about that yet? This opens the way to some thinking: the best mining seats were already taken by Nov the 12th.
EDIT: POW/PoS would also bring about a dramatic increment of the number of full BTG nodes.
