It seems Roger Ver and CO are seeking for a Bitcoin split (Bitcoin Cash) despite the BIP91 lock-in after all. Where we were all thinking that the miners were about to cause the BTC hard fork, it's Mr. Ver who wants to force a split for a new Bitcoin called; BCC (Bitcoin Cash)
Good or Bad for Bitcoin?
If this is good or bad for Bitcoin, I leave it in the middle. But I do find it a little odd that right after there was "sort of" an agreement with BIP91 locking in, it's Mr.Ver who is forcing a split after all.
New Coin without a split?
In my humble opinion, It would have also been an option to just created a complete new coin with his desired specifications. That way a lot of turbulence in CryptoLand would and could have been avoided.
