If CTOR is a bad thing, we can always remove it again.
Unless there is damage done as a result of CTOR. I mean sure it can likely be removed if it turns into a bad idea but what effects will b left over as a result of it being a bad thing?
The major problem is when you hard fork it in as a required thing, then it doesn't work/it causes problems and you revert back. That's two hard forks that businesses have to navigate.
A big motivator behind CSW's "lock the protocol" rhetoric is that SBI has a bunch of things they want to do with BCH but they're worried a hardfork is going to wreck their business.
What do they want to do?
Something like a BCH version of the stock market using tokens in place of shares. BCH payment processing/fiat conversion for vendors. ATM integration. Remittances. Lots of stuff.
wow.. that would be huge for bch if they implemented that :O
It is not exactly right. SBI plans to use XRP for all of those things, with BCH as a settlement layer.
Major roadblock is ABC wants to hardfork every 6 months which means theyd have to patch all their software or possibly scrap entire projects. Also they're extremely suspicious of China
suspicious of China - how?
So there's definitely a geopolitical aspect to the ABC/SV split that a lot of people are overlooking. Personally I consider China to be just a super massive version of North Korea.
Also, China is basically straight fascism these days. It's "capitalist" but the government picks all the winners and losers. So bitmain is a really big question mark to Japan investors
Interesting 😬 never heard or knew that the government in China chosed this 😐
They're extremely good propagandists. Communism and lying go hand in hand I guess. There'd be no need for censorship(the great firewall of China) if they didn't have anything to hide.
That's correct. That's often a good indicator. So the BTC guys are actually right that BCH is 'China-coin'?
That would be the "pot calling the kettle black". China is interested in manipulating all major currencies and commodities. Anything that threatens them or gives them more power.
Well for one, they make no bones about price manipulation. They been doing it for 70 years so why would crypto be any different?
All development groups agree on that schedule. Blaming ABC now is of no purpose. Also, SBI plans to use XRP for all those things you listed, with BCH only as settlement layer.
Do you think XRP is better suited for the purpose? I am thinking why not they just use BCH exclusively.
Yoshitaka Kitao <-- very interesting man.
Perhaps XRP was seen as a solution initially,
until something greater arrived?

All development groups AGREED on that schedule.
Exactly. It was actually BU's idea.
I completely agree we should lock the protocol. That will secure bch
How much of the original bitcoin "script" is currently enabled on BCH? Core disabled a bunch in the process of crippling bitcoin.
That’s a great question, I would like to know this too. I know a lot of the op code were re-enabled with the last update in May or whenever that was 🤔 DOA was changed too
I do not agree. Locking down the protocol would leave BCH in the dust.
How exactly would it leave it in the dust? You can still code optimizations as long as you follow the protocol. The protocol is really robust and simple.
Exactly. The most important thing is that BCH scales.
