Interesting article, I think bitcoin has the first mover advantage and that contributes greatly. But also I think many other cryptos are way overcomplicating things. Bitcoin offers a simple elegant solution to a real life problem. No overcomplicating, while many other cryptos offer a lot of solutions and try to fix nonexistant problems and are just a money grab.

But bitcoins future is at stake, the community is split on SegWit2x.
Charlie Lee just said NO to SegWit2x
