Dear all,
On Wayniloans part or our business is achieved thanks to Bitcoin, and on May we agreed to a sentence to reach consensus for the good of the ecosystem. This sentence was later changed to a longer agreement without our notice, and it was known as the New York Agreement (NYA).
At the time we didn't know that existing developers wouldn't support it, or that most Latin American Bitcoin users, our customers, would view it as an contentious proposal.
Also, without mandatory replay protection (not opt-in) on SegWit2x, we wouldn't be able to operate the crypto part of our business without risk of missing funds or legal actions.
So with existing conditions we can no longer be part of what later became the NYA.

So another participant of NYA is leaving this nonsense. Very good!
However I'm sure these guys will hardfork no matter what. And why? 'Cause it's means free money!
It will be another Bcash, mostly used for speculation on several exchanges.
With Bitcoin Gold/Bgold/BTCGPU there will be another 2rd fork of Bitcoin coming pretty soon.
I wouldn't be surprised to see way more hardforks from the top tier coins just to make a quick buck and to get quick attention and liquidity without huge marketing effort. Some kind of new form of ICOs!
