Because it's not. Most commenters here forget that bitcoin is not a fixed thing. It evolves. It forks.

All kinds of famous/important people predict Bitcoin's death every week, but it just keeps going.




And this medium.com post signals yet another of the hundreds of forks of bitcoin that have failed and not bitcoin itself.


To paraphrase an old saying about the Lisp programming language: Bitcoin is no deader than usual.


Anyone as famous/important (Bitcoin-wise) as Mike?


Bitcoin forking is generally considered an Extremely Bad Thing To Happen.


It has happened before with emergency fixes....


It will have to happen from time to time.
