Right and I don't think even the people behind it necessarily expect BCC to succeed. I think it is more symbolic.

The true issue will come in November.

I just hope we can come to some agreement because Segwit on it's own is not really that helpful.

We need larger blocks.

Even the 2MB size will only be a temporary measure but the fact that people have been resistant thus far to even small changes is something we need to move beyond.

We can't keep having a crisis every time we need to scale - if it keeps happening I fear we may end up in a situation where an altcoin does actually take the place of bitcoin.
