>Bitcoin community is split
Yet not even the advent of quantum computing with todays algorithms could undo a few hours of the Bitcoin blockchain.
A bit too much credence is given to people arguing on the internet rather than the raw state of things. The sheer computing power of bitcoin is a marvel of the modern world.
For all its problems I would say it has a long way to go yet unless the world solves the reality of a borderless economy.
- SkyMarshal 10y agoTrue, Bitcoin's historical ledger is pretty durable. The community split is more about its future. And I'm not referring to people arguing on internet forums, but about the split between Bitcoin's core developers and its biggest miner. One day such discord may actually be a good thing, but right now it is hindering basic fixes from being implemented.
