It will kill the speculative market. Their native use cases in their own systems will still be 100% viable. If someone uses for example bitcoin cash or miner as money as they're intended nobody can do a thing about it. For those people uninterested in off ramps this means little.

I use it as money as it's intended, to get paid for my work. The supermarket doesn't accept BTC, does that still make it 100% viable?

You better believe I'm going to be paid in USD from now on.

For those people who use it, yes.
