Why are you so confident that SV will have a large portion of the hashrate? All evidence points to the opposite.

i believe bitcoin.com will mine SV (just an educated guess). i am interested in what evidence you have? to me the only way SV loses is if Bitmain moves hash from BTC to BCH

Actually Bitcoin.com mines with BU. As it is only Coingeek seems interested in SV, which makes sense since theyvpsif for it to be developed.

Today, yes they mine w/ BU but On Nov. 15th who knows? they pay 98% block reward to their investors so they cannot afford to lose $$ in this. Also BMG Pool is nChain

They will be sticking with BU on Nov 15th. Why would people lose money? There is no good reason to switch to SV. It should be called CSWV.

As far as I know Roger hasn't said anything about which side he will support, any word on that?
replied 2253d
At the Bangkok miner's meeting, it seemed obvious Roger is no fan of CSW and probably by extension, SV. I think Roger is No-Upgrade or ABC-Spec. But No-Upgrade has no traction so...
replied 2253d
at that time, yes. he is speaking at the Coingeek conference next month still. i think he is being silent on purpose

He said he was very disappointed by CSW at the Bangkok miners meeting.

Well, Bitcoin.com runs Bitcoin Unlimited (at least for their mining pools). No announcement that they plan to change to another implementation.
replied 2253d
Not yet anyway. BU supports ABC's changes but not SV's. his silence speaks volumes IMO...honestly it makes no sense to reveal which side he will mine given their ~8% hash
replied 2253d
Really we will just have to wait and see, but Kyle guess is SV will be a minority protocol that will either make a minor fork, or be abandoned.
replied 2253d
It is funny to see you extrapolate things in favour of SV.
replied 2254d
if you look at the last 7 days, Coingeek/nChain(BMGpool)/SVpool already have 40% another pool just announced they are adding some for SV, and SVpool will add more by 11/15
