Some have pointed to the hard-forking increase associated with SegWit2x as a contentious waste of time, but there was also much to be learned from the whole experience.

One key takeaway is that it now seems clear that the base Bitcoin protocol is more of a digital gold than an improvement on PayPal or Visa.

I think it will be left to an alt to actually be a currency that people use in their day-to-day lives.



bitcoin gold is still new and still needs a lot of progress in doing, we should be able to tolerate the incident, they should be able to learn more to develop bitcoin gold as a good and good digital currency and can compete with bitcoin.

Still a long way to go, and eventually Bitcoin will be upgraded to be more "usable" in day to day situations
