You are on the right track Afrikoin! Blockstream Core has failed us, they have proven to be incompetent as software architects. They have no respect left. Only trolls keep pumping them. I honestly don't know anyone who still buys the Blockstream bullshit.
You may be right, but price will arbitrate. Best to stay agnostic.
price is a whole different subject. a lot of dumb money is flowing into cryptos. best bet money-wise is to remain conservative and assume that we cannot single out any specific coin. instead we should assume that cryptos in general are going to be a great investment so diversify between coins that are most likely around and healthy in 3 years. Don't invest in ICOs, don't invest in vaporware. Also, don't sell all your Bitcoin Segwit. Not because they are any good but because they are backed by the ruling elites of the dying fiat world. They might have some tricks left in their sleeve. Remember how the Ripple scam was pumped earlier this year? Same thing may happen to Bitcoin SegWit. It will flare brightly before it evaporates. Exit when it flares brightly.
