I just imagined my sons finding these memos one day and reading the thoughts of their late father. Memo allows anyone to leave a legacy.

all in all: is your memo legacy important enough for one of your sons to potentially have to go look it up in the dead chain repo?
replied 1995d
I guess I'm just projecting. My father died when I was young so I've always wondered what he was like. If there had been a Memo then, and I knew he posted on it, I'd want to read it.

That's assuming the BCH chain lasts that long. Bitcoin itself has only existed about 10 years or so. Who can say what will happen in the next 20-40?

I guess it's just hard for me to imagine BCH not reaching it's full potential. It's like watching a movie, being introduced to a character, and knowing they will save the day.

BCH is astonishingly close to the same issue for which BTC forked.
This next ABCvSV hurdle makes or breaks the BCH version.
If it dies, we'll be perm-storing on a different blockchain.

Yeah I'm hoping we don't suffer the same fate. November 15 is going to be interesting.

Even if BCH chain were to completely die, I think some people will still keep a copy of it around forever. Right now you can store the entire chain on a $20 drive.

Reviving it on another POW would also be very easy

So, if it dies, it's cheap to keep, and if it lives and survives, that will be irrelevant. Huh.
