You said it yourself. It's a free market and Sia devs have the right to soft fork just like you have the right to sell your coins. It's unfortunate that you didn't believe enough in the fundamental tech and be glad someone if giving Bitmain pushback for their bullshit. Already projected 90k ASICs out. It's going to be like D3 all over again. I just can't believe people still enable them by giving them business. They are like the Comcast of the ASIC industry.
