WHO DO YOU SUE WHEN LN/SEGWIT FUCKS UP?

Why does Coinbase hold those coins back for so long at all? Does anyone know the reason? I haven't been following that.

........................
But lets be clear that is a fork to modify the difficulty adjustment , so many of you have been whining about.

It is not a newly created coin networks , like segshitcoin is going to have.

Yes but looking over twitter and reddit comments it may not go as smoothly as expected a lot of users are angry about this and the miners seem to like the old EDA so "could" create a community split like ETH & ETC this was born from differences over an official upgrade

I would worry more that the cash miners support B2X more and jump over leaving cash dead like all the other failed forks before it (classic, xt, unlimited)

The Segwit2x futures only put at at around 1.5 BTC or ~$900 so far its not looking like much of a threat but it it does succeed we still have all our coins on the other chain  

Also the miners are trying to force the EDA right now (one reduction is already guaranteed to happen)

First of all, your puny 8-32MB blocks don't even come close to scaling to PayPal or Visa. (An off chain solution like lightning network probably would, however.) You need close to 1 GB blocks to even start to compare. Let's say you want to start up a block explorer or other information service. I doubt a $10/mo VPS is going to be enough to run a decent block explorer. Pruning the blockchain or running an SPV is fine, for personal use. However, if I want to contribute more by providing some kind of service, the start up cost is going to be huge. How are we supposed to have a decentralized economy when entry to even provide a block explorer will be prohibitive? Only mega whale oligarchs will have the means to provide us with the information services. What could go wrong?  
Also, this argument that we will have technology necessary in 10 or 20 years really doesn't fly. Do we want  Bitcoin to scale on the level of Visa and Paypal in a couple of years or do we want to wait a decade or more? Since technology is advancing, the systems Visa and Paypal will use will probably make them be able to scale even better. Your on-chain solution will be forever playing catch up and will never compete.

Last I heard, 2x mining signalling is at over 90%. So they'd be foolish to mine the 1x chain - that will all get orphaned on 2x chain. Have you even considered what will happen to 1x block interval with an instant 90% less hashpower?  I'm estimating it will be a block every 100 minutes, each completely full of transactions with very high fees... I don't think using a Segwit address will make much of a difference... and I don't like Garzik and his henchmen one bit... but Kore is done, fired, and I won't shed any tears about them.
