Harmony
Despite the high level of development of modern technologies and principles of conducting transactions, it is difficult to compare a complex financial system with amazing harmony of Bitcoin. Network nodes (can be compared with tiny capillary vessels of human blood circulatory system) collect and process data related to transactions in standalone mode.
Harmonic coordination of results of the executed work is reflected on the state of distributed ledger of the cryptocurrency. System’s operation can be compared with a chorus, when everybody sings one and the same role. Part singing sounds better than solo parts separately.
This amazing harmony ensures security against frauds and thieves. Bitcoin is out of influence of any political and economic calamities. Moreover, it is out of the bureaucratic ploys and flaws of the modern financial system.
Dissonance
What will happen if half of singers decide to change the repertoire? The beauty of the song will disappear. Moreover, after being polyphony it will turn into cacophony.
However, the situation will become even worse if some singers refuse libretto and change singing style. A divine melody will become a patchwork blanket. In fact, confusion encourages disagreements and breaks the established system of trust relationships.
The need for classic melodies is out of doubts; however, the repertoire has to be changed from time to time. If somebody wants to put a new face on, why not to try it all at once?
It is possible to reach harmony adding new layers. Maybe, some got bored from singing alone, so they want to sing with an orchestra.
Softfork is the best way of adding new opportunities to Bitcoin. Old network nodes continue playing classic arias, while new ones subdue new areas bringing in new melodies. Nodes-miners have to switch to a new Bitcoin version quickly using network resources at maximum to ensure security.
Bitcoin has been built on the principles of mathematical evidence and cryptography. Ease of realization is perfectly combined with a complex implication. There are no insignificant details. Experiments of developers who made even tiny distortion in parameter determination were destructive for cryptocurrencies.
Bitcoin capacity (an important criterion of Bitcoin) operates in a mode of continuous confrontation with cryptocurrency’s security system. Frequent compromises, in case of correct planning, reduce a rate of resistance. One shouldn’t make modifications into a natural process of system development without studying their nature and influence on cryptocurrency’s evolution beforehand.
Daring recklessness, or a new clone of PayPal network
Ever-active enthusiasts, Mike Hearn and Gavin Andresen, have designed their own model of the future, where Bitcoin will develop its own infrastructure of large data-centers. A small number of organizations will be evenly distributed across the globe. 
Network security won’t be dependent on market forces. The mechanism of work evidence step-by-step loses control over the system acting as an initial system loader.
Cryptocurrency analysts throw doubt upon the validity of the theory. And Bitcoin Core does either. The world doesn’t need one more centralized system of payment processing similar to PayPal.
 
The demand in it is unlikely to grow in the future.
Positioning Bitcoin as a global stand-alone and trust-based system is the major delusion of decentralization supporters. They consider refusal of these values as a reason for inevitable failure of the popular cryptocurrency.
 
Bitcoin stability
Development of capacity improving methods with no damage to unique values is a great challenge for Bitcoin Core. The company offered a unique plan on improving capacity.
 
Decreasing risk level will take place amid implementation of benign modes of client software. They allow improving quality and optimizing transactions. The new proposal will be incompatible with previous versions of the client software; however, it won’t require an immediate integration from customers using older software versions.
The group Classic took a different track. It offers similar opportunities without an insurance mechanism. Taking a new road will involve rough changes in system basics.
 
Caution might be exercised while changing rules. One shouldn’t rewrite the time-proved principles. Stability of Bitcoin rules is the best guarantee of cryptocurrency’s health.
 
Possibility to change rules often without agreement of the mainstream customers is evidence of system’s unreliability and can become a reason of distrust. Alterations brought by fresh forks are contradictory. It is necessary to study their influence on stable Bitcoin development. An illustrative example is Bitcoinocracy, where the opposition to arguable hardforks is expressed in millions of dollars. 
Support of the major part of investors does not empower Bitcoin Core to change system rules without customers’ agreement. Rash statement of Bitcoin Classic developers about possible implementation of “the masses poll” institution which would allow avoiding system limitations and making modifications, can bring discord in perfect harmony of Bitcoin.
 
What do we have in reality?
The confrontation between Core and Classic is the main subject of discussion among cryptcurrency experts. Core succeeded to unite the greatest masterminds. In contrast, Classic suffers a shortage in experienced personnel and hasn’t completed the software development. Moreover, analysts question whether the company will be able to continue its support.
 
It is necessary to take into account negative experience of Bitcoin XT and join hands. Surprising is lack of foresight in some reputable specialists and market players who support shapeless formation Classic with no any content. Such recklessness can provoke confusion in the industry.
Statements of Classic’s supporters that Core acts under command of Blockstream, are groundless and remind of propaganda.
 
Classic opened dangerous for the system stability game with no rules announcing false information about Blockstream’s plans to benefit from “stifling” Bitcoin.
They place stake on incompetence of masses in technical details. Identification of Core with developers looks ridiculous for experienced people but brings confusion among ordinary customers.
 
Blockstream is interested in growth of Bitcoin rate. The most of its developers invested their savings in the cryptocurrency. Moreover, the company was founded by a group of enthusiasts who are sure in Bitcoin future. Unlike many Bitcoin-companies Blockstream indeed cares about growth in popularity and improvement of this alternative monetary unit.
To clarify the hidden motive of Classic’s statements it is enough to get opinions of reputable experts not related to Bitcoin technology; Core developers not related to Blockstream also confirm deceit nature of such announcements.
 
The theory of possible compromise between Bitcoin capacity and perfect operation of security system is not new. Bitcoin Classic developers have chosen the right direction and continue working on strengthening and expending Bitcoin’s harmony.
