Will you use old Bitcoin if XT wins?

if people still run core as a minority, won't there be a massive downward difficulty adjustment after however many 'long' blocks,
meaning people would be able to get back into mining as that happens ?
and a price crash as people sell leading to cheap coin ?

Long blocks are not that bad if you recall that millions people receive bank transfers with 2-3 day delays without any problems.
Price of the both versions will crash anyway because of panic. People quitting Bitcoin for XT won't affect the price too much.

Regardless of what someone choses here, at the end the answer will always be that they will use the coin that remains their stable value. The other coin will drop in price, panic sells and that was it for it. That coin will be no alternative anymore.

Bitcoin XT was just a failure. There are less nodes than was before at the beginning. That means than Bitcoin Core wins.
