A HF is coming, I now believe this.

I imagine for those of us that actually use this technology for payments (not just trading) - there's going to be a period of extreme weirdness. Does one require a payment on Chain X, Chain Y or Both?

We need a wallet, that creates two transactions - one for either blockchain (per the rules of that network).

It would also allow one to import privKey's and check the balance on either chain.

Why? As people use their bitcoin for payments - they could see how one chain is cheaper or more expensive; making for more informed decisions.

There wasn't this tool with ther ETC/ETH HF; but one could say that Ether's wasn't initially thought of in terms of a payment device. Bitcoin is though, and we ought to ask wallet makers to consider making this an option or helping the community to dev one.

Thoughts? (I'm sure that wallet dev are already thinking about this, I just hope that we don't force people into taking a side by their choice of wallet downloaded.)
