1. Denial — The first reaction is denial. In this stage individuals believe the diagnosis is somehow mistaken, and cling to a false, preferable reality.
anarchy
Anarchy does not mean "no rules", it means (translated literally from Ancient Greek) "no rulers". We've got the opposite problem; rulers exist, the rules do not (for the rulers, at least)
I beg to differ regarding my perception of the world governance situation - whether that be rules or rulers.. it does not matter to the point that I was making, and accordingly, I stand on my earlier comments.
In essence, my earlier point was suggesting that there is a lack of world governance, and therefore, a kind of anarchy in any attempt to suppress bitcoin and therefore bitcoin is going to be able to profit from some of this lack of coordination.. in which, even if some national or local governments attempt to ban bitcoin, these various forces are too disjointed and conflicting, and accordingly, bitcoin is going to become stronger and stronger, even if some national governments attempt to take various actions against it.

Oh bad luck, gentlemen.
I'm now entering a new phase: concern about what the dying bankster behemoth will come up with next to bring Bitcoin down. It's possible that brute force is all they've got left, which is possibly bad news in the short term, despite the potential for plenty of corresponding publicity. And the timing seems a little extraordinary, events around the world impacting the legacy financial system are beginning to look like they are coming to the boil.

I feel that it's difficult for state actors to coordinate an attack on bitcoin internationally. Events like Venzeula arresting miners and the Russian parliament contemplating making bitcoin illegal haven't moved the markets much.
Their best bet is still slowly destroying confidence in bitcoin (death by 1000 papercuts), and then perhaps creating a panic when the setting is just right. Fortunately the community has weathered a few such panics already.
I think that various government intentions to perpetuate a form of governmental anarchy on the international level has caused them to be a victim of their own success....
classic isn't dead!
classic fanboys aren't maybe, but you guys had to be pretty braindead to support it to begin with. Oh no, you're one of these "subtle" fanboys who claimed to "only" support 2MB2MB2MB2MB2MB, right?
Everyone knows Adam, Classic and XT had ZERO to do with scaling, because they weren't credible scaling solutions by any metric, they were designed to slowly strangle Bitcoin (if Gavin Andresen had his way, we'd have 20MB blocks right now, and there'd no chance that people like me could maintain my Bitcoin node).
So, for the umpteenth time, if you haven't got anything sensible to say, be quiet

It's happening. Roadmap right on schedule.
I just came to this thread in order to post that but it seems that I'm too late (been a bit busy). The April deadline for Segwit has been met.https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/7910

I think its been fairly obvious for a while now that core would win the battle.
It is obvious because unlike Classic, Core has real developers and engineers. 
classic isn't dead!
I think its been fairly obvious for a while now that core would win the battle.
this latest meeting in china has made that clear as day now.
but the war will not stop here.
IF core can incress capacity and move a lot of TX onto lightning network, clearing enough space for bitcoin to continue to grow for the foreseeable future, then and only then will classic die.

I wanted to post the same.
Pull request for SegWit implementation, Classic got kicked in the butt.
Man what a beautiful day!!
I say go post a new thread just for it, it deserves it I think. This one might as well be closed since classic has been confirmed as #R3KT by all economic, mining and technical factors now.

Miners represent only a part... where are the users / buyers ?
DIE! DIE! why won't you die?
Awesome!
I call that a victory for Bitcoin!!
The day couldn't start any better!

Hilarious. I bet Andresen, Smith and Armstrong are furiously writing Medium posts as we speak.

All over Twitter, Reddit, this forum...I'm seeing people left and right turning against Gavin. This is the most bullish development I've seen in bitcoin for years now! I can hardly contain my excitement.
Yeah, Gavin appears as very normal, articulate and even well-intended in respect to the well-being of bitcoin; however, in retrospect, when we see how his various proposals (XT and Classic) seemed to have been aimed at attempts to undermine bitcoin and to divide the bitcoin community (to the extent that there is such a community), it becomes easier to feel resentment towards him (as if he should have known better).
