Topic: Should we be aware that a Hard Fork is imminent? (Read 669 times)
Maybe it will happen, but only the majority/longest chain is the winner and i think SegWit will win and adopted whether with/without hardfork incident. Furthermore, i'm sure bitcoin price only crashed temporary then back to normal once people realize which one is the major chain
So, i think there's nothing to worry about.

What does this really do to the other coins?
Does it just affect bitcoin if and when it happens or does it matter to the bigger ones now like ethereum and dash?
Cause for the longest time they seem to work independently from the main stream.

So, what are your opinions on this one? Do you think that this is affecting the price?
I think the FUD about hard fork has already caused this massive price dump, but now price may bounce back because trading platform have clearly stated that they will keep using bitcoin core (BTC) as bitcoin and will list bitcoin unlimited only as BTU like just another alt if bitcoin network get splitted into two. 
Does it really matter whether the 2 branches are called BTC and BTU, or by any other name? What matters is which coin finds more acceptance and which coin is backed up by more hashing power.
they('collective of the digital Currency Exchange Industry') are just desperate
blockstream is in debt to a tune of $70m-$90m, the exchanges are in debt too
here is a lowdown of who they owe money to and how much

P.S barry silbert is DCG (owns coindesk amunst others and ties to blockstream(core)) and is getting really edgy about getting his returns. so he is pushing hard to cause drama

however the real bitcoin community (ignoring the corporation dictatorship) are not pushing for a split, they want real consensus and one single consensus chain without the dev overlords calling the shots. where nodes grow based on the mutual consent of the network majority of diverse codebases.
the community consensus has no deadlines and no overzealous ban hammer code to cause a controversial or bilateral split.
but the corporate tribe wanting dominance are the ones that have thrown the baby out the pram, and begging the community to split up..

your topic subject is WRONG because hard fork is not imminent, it actually is very very very far away from happening. you got caught in the FUD and are repeating it.
and that statement from exchanges goes without saying. even if they didn't make it, it was obvious what they would have done.
also your topic is a duplicate

Recently a collective of the digital Currency Exchange Industry, comprised of 20 of the most prominent Exchanges released a statement in which they reveal what would be their reaction in case of a Bitcoin Hardfork.
