RE: UASF = Bitcoin is Finished!
Everyone can run the node they choose. When people are not happy with core they can change, but the developers of core are the top of the world and made Bitcoin what it is today. 85 percent of the network has chosen to use core and this is ok. Segwit activation will scale a bit for the short term, but will create the foundation for huge innovation for the long term where more use cases will be possible and scaling will be a side effect.
Yes Core is a secure wallet, and there isn't any other wallet that is as vetted as Core.
So they can just insert any kind of hardfork patch into core, because they know that people will rather adopt a crappy patch than to change wallet to a more insecure one.
So there are no options = monopoly. It doesnt matter how the nodes feel, if there are no alternatives.
So I just choose to stick with another coin until this issue is resolved. I don't want to get caught in the middle of the storm.
