99% of altcoins - supposedly going to save us - do not have developers
If Bitcoin users chose not to upgrade from Current-Bitcoin to Next-Bitcoin, then they will be using a *coin I'll refer to as Current-Bitcoin. Current-Bitcoin will then be a coin without developers. That's a potential problem. I suppose if enough users refused to upgrade, then at least one or two developers would go with them, so I'm not too worried. I just wanted to point it out.
In fact, I'm starting to regret using my real name and photo on this forum.
That is really you?
I cannot answer your question with a simple yes or no. Identity is a tricky concept.
