They should have never of fucked with it, and the people who are all obsessed with messing with it should understand that Bitcoin is just fine being super slow, and people could easily convert it into say Litecoin in order to make their purchases.
I believe all of this code tampering, and hard forking into multiple Bitcoin chains may very well lead to its fall from cryptocurrency Heaven, as its current reigning king.
How much more of this will people take, before they leave Bitcoin (all three of them possibly come November) behind for good, and move on to a more reliable, faster, and more anonymous coin even, like say Monero for instance?
Just look at Monero or ZEC price, it seems the process of migration aready started. BTC is useless atm except for HODLing. BTH looks a bit better, but...
Yeah, it's going to be interesting see how it pans out, and I'm looking forward to it!
People should just realize how Steem would be a better alternative to Bitcoin sooner rather than later :)
Ha ha, that would be cool, but Steem is infinite so I don't think so.
Although, it could definitely be used to convert Bitcoin into Steem in order to make purchases, because lets face facts... nothing is faster than a Steem transaction! 🐳
