You really did think this in the shower , didn ' t you ? <| sep |> Interesting question ! It ' s something I also often think about . The most likely scenario in my opinion is what we already can see The rising price and some or even a lot of other aspects like the currencycrisis in India leads to more interest in Bitcoin and to more transactions . Fees rise and at a certain point they ' ll most likely explode and the problem becomes obvious for everybody . And that could interrupt a BTCpricehype much more pressure on the price and most likely it would lead into a hard pricecorrection andor it ' s possible that it forks and that one version stays classic and the other version starts with a bigger blocksize . Most people wouldn ' t like that scenario , but I believe it wouldn ' t be that bad . Factom could anchor in two very secure Blockchains , the price wouldn ' t hype that much better for the Factoid price , etc . Plus Bitcoins weakness could make Factom as a system even more attractive . Edit This is how it looks right now count ? timespan 1 year
