Topic: Bigger blocks coming in release 0.11 - page 5. (Read 4767 times)
About time! Anyone whining about this need to get their marbles examined.
It's better to be proactive than reactive, there's a ton of discussion about the "why" already out there.
Okay. This may be a stupid question, but I'm going to ask anyway. Are bigger blocks good or bad? And why would they be good or bad?
For what purpose is the bigger block? Why is there a need for a 1 megabyte block, the blockchain works fine like now?
Blocks only get big when there are many transaction in them, so how could a miner create a bigger block without that much transactions

Get ready, it's coming...

I’m going to submit a pull request to the 0.11 release of Bitcoin Core that will allow miners to create blocks bigger than one megabyte, starting a little less than a year from now.
