Gusto on Nostr: Minority forks of bitcoin is close to impossible to pull off. Relax don't panic. ...
Minority forks of bitcoin is close to impossible to pull off. Relax don't panic. Doing nothing is the safe default.
Alot of OG whales view minority fork coins as airdrops an tend to dump the fork coins on the market.
The bigger your bag the bigger your incentive to defend network by dumping the minority fork coins.
However as i said the safe default is to sit tight and do nothing. Just relax and let the shitstorm pass. You will have coins on both chains so no stress.
This dynamic and incentive structure is one of many reasons bitcoin is so hard to change without overwhelming consensuss.
