A very very worse case scenario would be that 2x garners network support and becomes the new bitcoin
Certainly, I personally believe there is a very good chance that BCH becomes the victor of the enforkenating. I assume you merely cast this off as implausible?
Sure you want to throw a monkey wrench in my framing of various scenarios to add another possible scenario that to me seems to me to be less plausible than a segwit2x take-over... so you are correct that I am perceiving such a supposed BCH take over scenario as less plausible than a segwit2x take over... .
Part of my reasoning is that BCH seems to already have proven itself as crap, corrupted, quasi-centralized, so I can't really imagine any reasonably plausible scenario that would cause BTC networking effects to migrate over to BCH, at least NOT on any kind of sustainable scenario.
But really, if S2X emerges the victor, is that really a 'worst case' for you Core acolytes?
hahahahaha.. you goofie picnic food stealing bear.....
"core acolytes" is a name for someone like me who is continuing to find nonsense in the various attack ploys and propaganda coming from BIG blockers...
Let me see if I can address this. I understand that frequently you do not appreciate my way of framing these matters; however, it seems to make a whole hell-of-a lot more sense that I call names to attackers and to non-status quo whiners than for you and other nonsense BIG blockers to continue to attack and denigrate and try to suggest that "core acolytes" are an actual category of equals. These "core acolytes" are not part of any religion, and don't have any duty to justify anything.. Instead , those challenging the system have the duty to justify and persuade with facts and/or logic.. and they continuously are not able to do such justification to get the bitcoin system changed, so instead they attack and try to destroy with ongoing seemingly more desperate mechanisms.. and hoping that sooner or later they are going to attract actual and meaningful networking support to their ongoing lame-ass side. Maybe if they actually used reasonable and merit based measures, then perhaps (seems a long shot) they could graduate above and beyond "lame-ass?" perhaps?
Seems to me that there ain't more than a RCH difference between S1X and S2X.
I don't know what is RCH, and you could be correct that there is NOT much of a difference, and maybe for that reason , we could see that logically there is a problem to attempt to take over the whole fucking thing of bitcoin over some stupid-ass minor difference for which there is little to no justification in terms of logic and/or facts that would cause it to be necessary in any kind of way beyond a bunch of whiners who say that they want it.
Sure, a handful of overly-entitled neckbeards either whiny-ragequit or have their bluffs exposed. Other than that, what?
I think that your reference to whiners and my reference to whiners if different, but I believe that I understand what you are getting at. So you are going with the scenario that S2x becomes the new bitcoin, and then you are supposing that everything is the same, except for some whiny core developers would quit.. which you characterize as a kind of trivial thing. Go figure the amount of spinning going on, here, to be kind of narrowly describing and denigrating core developers.. and I suppose that is also part of the problem with S2x, is that they personalize the bullshit when they would be welcome to contribute to core (and bitcoin) if they stop acting like a bunch of kids and engage in constructive contributions that are based on factual and/or logical backings...
Sure, not every proposal has to be factual and logical and could include some other considerations, but seems that if some of these immature BIG blockers were able to grow up a bit, remove some of their emotional and personal animosity, then there could be some ways that they would actually be able to positively affect the direction of bitcoin, perhaps?
Does "tangentially related" also mean irrelevant to the current discussion? Don't you need to make some kind of connection, and even if you might be presenting some non-controversial data, but what is the connection to the current topic?
