@blocktrades is the only team that can create a hardfork at the moment.
Not sure we concur on that point. My guess is that Tim Cliff, for one, has been catching up on his sleep. 😎
They could even hide some sneaky code in there that no one finds out about for years.
You don't have to be a witness to review code for malicious additions. Just running a diff on the new code against the older version will highlight the changes.
Haha you got me. Yeah after I wrote that I was like... ehhhh that's a little paranoid and not accurate. The amount of code needed to change for the fork is very small. It's the testing of the code that's the big deal.
