  • My Preferences among the two is segwit.
    Both the networks have their own benefits and features . But according to my interests i am going to prefer Segwit Bitcoin Network . Because it is very fast. It costs very low transaction fees. It is advancing day by day and introducing new features. It decreases the fear of the loosing bitcoin because of the fastest speed. Due to this you received your bitcoins immediately without holding it on the blockchain. So i prefer to use Segwit Bitcoin Network.
