All I know is that I know nothing.
if $ETH had a successful fork, maybe
but it already is project FAIL, consensus my ass

besides $ETH was the we must fork crowd BTC, fuck it will make our own coin, and fork it too!

odds are very low of getting support now for another round of 'lets fork BTC'; and the consequences of do it that very evident.

Why do you think ETH didn't have a successful fork? Did you expect 100% of users to go with the fork? Not going to happen. There was a successful fork and there are two coins now: one is more idealistic, Classic... the other one is perhaps more... flexible. It was a total success, users can now choose which of them is more dear to their own vision of the world. Choice is good. Forking is awesome and should be celebrated.

since we are not living in a perfect world 100% will never be reached but there should be a good percentage and the rest who disagreed should also be brought on board. that is why they keep talking about Consensus in bitcoin, because if you rush into changing things without it you get things like this; you piss a lot of the users off and then you either are left with two different chains and a divided community or a dead coin.

The Ethereum Classic will be attacked to death by the big Etherum holders. They can sell their ETC to 0.

i think this shitstorm has only just started to whirl. it's gonna take a few weeks or months before we can figure out the effects. i'm not so sure they're going to be beneficial to either strain of eth.

it's real nice of the eth crowd to show everyone else what happens in this type of situation without them having to risk their money. a hard fork that benefits everyone with almost universal agreement is one thing and i can only think of a technical problem that would create those circumstances.

The minds and hearts of Bitcoin users are prepared. The devil is not so scary as was depicted, forks can happen and the world keeps spinning. Change of algo has to happen in the Bitcoin fork though, because the 3 chinese miners will 51% attack the fork they disagree with to make their profits good again.
