Bitcoin and the community have fought a long time to get this far and won't be co-opted by a fast moving, yet zero substance coin.
Bitcoin has a commanding market presence and will continue to dwarf all other cryptocurrencies with a wide range of acceptance, and as the trading bases for 100's of exchanges.
For those of us who've been in the space for a long time, we've seen a lot of FUD and still hodl is a way of life.

It's hard to call it zero substance when it's transaction fees are a fraction of bitcoins. I won't even send bitcoin anymore. I just put it into LTC, Dash, or BCH to send. And why should we wait for the lightning network which is inherently less secure when it has been proven that it is not needed.
You are so right
BCash, not to be confused with Bitcoin Cash, I mean BCH. Well depending what exchange you’re at, it may not be BCH, sometimes it’s BCC. Wait, BCC, that’s Bitconnect right.... oh never mind.
Have you even sent bitcoin lately? I will probably wait longer for a single confirmation then a reply.
You would be unwise to dismiss it. I really don't have to feel emotional about it.
Actually I have, it’s alarming. It’ll get worked out though, things always do. It’s the ‘immediate satisfaction’ factor that we base our emotions on. Like the guy in the gym, he can’t be a big buff guy after the first week so he quits. His immediate satisfaction wasn’t met. Bitcoin has challenged all the criticism and succeeded while proving itself to be safe, accurate and secure but that immediate satisfaction isn’t being met so some people are throwing in the towel. Lame!
