forking is bad, we should all remain on the same chain, either as XT or as core, DEVS GET YOUR FCKIN ASSES TOGETHER AND COME UP WITH A SYNTHESIS!

Do you know what does forking even mean?

Bitcoin cannot evolve without forks.

XT is the same chain, and the trigger mechanism of BIP101 secures that a split is pretty much impossible.

Are you pro Bitcoin XT?

    
No. down with the speculators who want to create their own fork on behalf of Bitcoin

XT FTW

Bitcoin arrived at a historic moment. If  the blockstream/core cartel wins we can wave goodbye to independent and free bitcoin.
Haha, you're the ones who are forcibly trying to change the protocol  Cheesy . I am certain your propaganda has become ineffective by now.

Meanwhile, remove that extra crap code from the XT cancer. Who knows what discrete backdoors you guys are hiding in there. Keep only the max block size increase to keep a shred of credibility.


Forcibly? It depends on the ecosystem to accept the changes.

The code is open source.

Bitcoin should not depend on any single or group of devs or a company.

The propaganda, the lies and other dirty tactics of the Blockstream/Core-dev group is astonishing though.

Funny how someone created a fake and indistinguishable XT client. It could effectively cause a premature fork.

That's why 75%+ of hashpower is needed for a trigger.

So I will stay with core for now and hope that the devs will get convinced to increase the blocksize limit at least to 2 or 4MB.

I'm absolutely certain the core devs will devise a consensus based plan to raise the block size when necessary.  Right now, there's no immediate need for it, and not for the forseeable future either.   When that time comes, I'm absolutely certain the core devs will come to a consensus on a sensible approach to tackle the issue.

This BS about Mike and Gavin shoving it down everyone's throats as if we're in end times is ridiculous, to say the least.  Can anyone say "hidden agenda"?

What idiots.  They both just totally destroyed any reputation they had within the bitcoin community.  They gambled, and they lost.  Who's going to listen to them now?

not anymore especially after the thread about how they blacklist ip, i don't like this time of control over users, bitcoin should be synonym of freedom

but i'm still in favor on bigger block at least for now as a soft solution, if we cannot find a better one

Yepp same with me. This is really suspicious. I'm defineately pro bigger blocks but not that way XT is trying to do it.
I'm not a coder but something seems to smell really extremely fishy about it.
So I will stay with core for now and hope that the devs will get convinced to increase the blocksize limit at least to 2 or 4MB.

The new version, which calls itself Bitcoin XT, would increase the block size to 8 megabytes, which would allow up to 24 transactions to be processed every second. That is still a fraction of the 20,000 or so that VISA can process, but would increase every year, so that bitcoin could continue to grow.

Those who oppose Bitcoin XT say the bigger block size jeopardizes the vision of a decentralized payments system that bitcoin is built on, as the extra computer memory needed would shut out many of the thousands of individual “nodes” that currently power the network.

Nope.  Mike and Gavin can go F themselves.

What they're attempting to do is absolutely atrocious, and it disgusts me.

Thankfully, it looks like they're going to fall flat on their face.  Good.  One more win for Bitcoin! Smiley

See everyone, this is what happens when you don't keep your ego in check.  You get delusional, and come up with ideas like you can just do a hostile takeover of an entire currency.

Be careful, this thread will be locked soon just like this one : https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=68655.31220

We have hundreds of votes in that thread.


You can't change your vote in that thread.  And the question is not about XT, just 8MB blocks in general.

Plus, it was made long before we knew what Meni Rosenfeld thinks about XT:

I wouldn't care either but for the anti-Tor stuff. That's a big no for me.
