 competition is good for an ecosystem but miserable to live/build through. just remember the design goals were aiming for: open markets, freedom to transact and anyone can compete to serve

 Why would competition be miserable to live through? Build through?

 Like bcash et al? I welcome it. Growing pains, which was op’s point, but good for bitcoin at large.

 One of the best ways to move things forward is put something out there that you KNOW is wrong, and then stand back and let others tell you how its wrong (usually followed by showing you). A good tactic when things stagnate. People LOVE to tell others how wrong they are. 

This is good for StratumV2. Will push thibgs forward. 

There have always been, and always will be, bad actors in the bitcoin space. Makes us stronger!
