Umm... you do know that BTU has nothing to do with Bitcoin Unlimited, right? It is merely an intentionally crippled craptoken created so useless idiots would have something to post to try to tarnish Bitcoin Unlimited.

For the metric which matters -- hashpower as measured by block solutions -- BU hanging solid on 40%.

Like a boss.

Anyone with a campaign ad in their signature -- for an organization with which they are not otherwise affiliated -- is automatically deducted credibility points.

I've been convicted of heresy. Convicted by a mere known extortionist. Read my Trust for details.

Which is why I said that the futures are an advance of what would happen if Roger and Jihad were to actually go thought with it and hardfork.

Most likely miners never wanted anything that would lower fees, so the only effective idiot is you or anyone defending whatever hardfork.

We're already seeing a shocking loss of bitcoin dominance from 95% to 40%... If the big blockers fork off and leave "bitcoin" entirely in the hands of Core/Blockstream/dumb miners/trolls, then this will accelerate, collapsing even further under the weight of its its own stupidity.

The so called bitcoin dominance % has already been addressed numerous times as a misleading indicator.

Example: IOTA now comes up with at %100 premined coin worth billions and spawns right in the top 5.

The only thing that the bitcoin dominance shows is that altcoins are in a bubble, specially ETH thanks to the ICO madness.

The big blockers are the dumbest from the bunch, so they leaving can only be good. Their altcoin will collapse as demonstrated by BU developers being incompetent to keep their software safe and the price will collapse as well as everyone worth anything dumps BU coins for free BTC.
