I'm not picking a side, just delivering info:
You can see the signalling process here: https://coin.dance/blocks https://coin.dance/blocks
90% are signalling the NYA intent to support Segwit2x. Since the software release 20% have signalled with segwit2x blocks.
You can see business support here: https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Segwit_support#Businesses https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Segwit_support#Businesses
I'm not sure if you consider Coinbase a major bitcoin company yourself, but I think they qualify.
If I was to make a prediction, everyone will be running segwit2x or another client faking segwit2x support, to get segwit passed by Aug 1st. Then once October comes along we'll have another fight over the actual blocksize hardfork.

That doesn't look like a very good proof. If coinbase plans to adopt segwit2x, why haven't they released an announcement? I wouldn't trust that wiki list very much.
- ChrisClark 9y agoYou can click through to see the sources on each one on the table there. And don't trust the wiki, no need to. Trust the hash power. The NYA signal was just a promise, so don't trust that one. But the BIP91 signals are coming in already. Just need to get that over 80% for just over 2 days. Then we'll see the original segwit signals jump to the 95%+ it needs. But the truth is, you don't have to worry about finding any support proof or anything. We'll know what happens over the next week or two for sure. I don't care whatever direction it goes in, I just want it to go smoothly.
- jerguismi 9y agoWell certainly it will be interesting if this trick gets miners to signal segwit, as currently the segwit signaling is only around 45%.
- stale2002 9y agoThey did release an announcement. They signed the original new york agreement letter.
