While that sounds like a very useful feature, I think there is still a stark difference between having to update your money with security patches vs just not even worrying about any of that.
- mablap 10y agoUsers don't have to worry. Here the miners are akin to the banks. They process payments and thus they get to decide if the money is spent or not. For the end user, there is no difference. The fork only happens if over 51% of miners update.
