Your intuition is correct. The banks weren't just going to let us have our own fork, but they were hurried, and used the same Blockstream tactic over again. Won't work this time.

Are you saying that Bitcoin ABC may be a malicious player?

Potentially. Put it this way, this is the first I heard of any chain split, but there is plenty of time to hash it all out. Have ABC stated they will be forking regardless?

ABC can not FORK! ABC is a protocol dev. team. Only miners can fork, by running code.
ABC Team suggested some changes, it is now on miners so articulate if they are willing run it.

Anyone can fork though.

Yes you can just CPU mine from your laptop, then you create a fork.

I'm saying they ARE a malicious player. I'm also saying they will be irrelevant in 3, 2, 1...

You convinced me they likely will become irrelevant in reddit. I was quite a skeptic a week ago. Glad miners are not just some puppets now and they realise they must have dev teams
