There's an altcoin section for topics like this...

not sure if your being satirical or you really dont know what bitcoin is about and how bitcoin works to make such a comment
however
BU runs on the bitcoin network.
BU is not asking to split the network
BU is part of bitcoin

you seem to be a noob that purchased a high ranking username if you dont know the basics of how bitcoin works to assume that it is an altcoin.
learn consensus. learn decentralization and learn diversity.

I am the elected "Developer" (committer) to Bitcoin Unlimited.  I am breaking my silence of a year and a month on this forum to say that we do have a solid development team, but that you will have a very hard time discovering information about us and the Bitcoin Unlimited project on this forum since much of it has been "moderated" out of existence.  We will see if this post lasts.  Please do use Google searches to learn about us.


Yes I just did that and I am reading thru your members page. https://www.bitcoinunlimited.info/members

I have no idea who these people are and I hope they are all qualified to develop and bring Bitcoin forward for the sake of the whole cryptocurrency community. We do not want to look like a group of inept people in a community full of infighting, mudslinging and fudding for lack of a better word. That will not bring Bitcoin in a good light and will not make it attractive in the mainstream's view.

I just discovered these guys. They say they have a solution to scale BTC. Some info here, on their FAQ:

https://www.bitcoinunlimited.info/faq

Unfortunately, I'm not enough of a techie to say how good their proposals are, but I like the fact that they're making them. The scalability issue needs to be solved, and new ideas can always help, but they're also a risk when the ideas are as developed as theses ones. Somehow, the team behind Bitcoin Unlimited is competing against Bitcoin Core.

Anyone knows who are the guys behind Bitcoin Unlimited?


I have been asking the same question myself around the forum but I have not been given a clear answer. What I know is Roger Ver is a solid supporter and that the "Bitcoin Unlimited team", whoever that is, has announced a research grant program that will give out several thousand dollars to fund coders to work on Bitcoin Unlimited.

The first reaction on that news is that they might be lacking talented coders. Also that is why we cannot get a straight answer when we ask who the developers are behind BU. So for now your nodes should be running core until further clarification. I also want to see the Lightning Network released and let us first see how it goes.

Bitcoin unlimited is well and alive. About 15% of the hashrate is behind it at this stage and is gaining momentum.
Maybe it is, but there is no unlimited solution or ultimate solution to scaling. Its constant process of finding bottlenecks.
So... that said, im skeptic.

If I remember correctly I had heard about them months ago, but I don't remember having heard of anything from them since then. They were one of the three dev teams that were racing to develop a solution to the scaling problem, but the mentions of their names died out around the same time everyone stopped losing their mind about the block size.
