Enquiring minds want to know if astroturfers get christmas day off...

Before anyone jumps to any conclusions, that cuts both ways Smiley

It's amusing that this was the last post before Christmas. Nothing on Christmas. Then all hell breaks loose.

I've said it. Does that mean it is true? Should I write a paper to confirm it? His words were obliterated by others long ago.

Maybe it becomes true if you repeat the quote in enough distinct posts. That's how truth works, right?

Bitcoin unlimited does have a blocksize limit in practice. It just changes how this limit is decided upon. Instead of the blocksize limit being decided upon by a centralized development team, which is akin to centralized economic planning and obviously flawed, the blocksize limit is determined by the market, miners and users collectively. I believe this does solve the dilemma of governance related to the blocksize issue and possibly other issues in the future as well.
Care to elaborate?

XTers are gaining confidence with BU and Coinbase and RIP Maxwell and increased traffic at their clubhouses. They don't consider victory a foreskin conclusion, though.  If they did, they would stop showing up here.

The day that they stop coming to this thread is not the day XT is rekt, but the day XT (or whatever non-Core utopia they end up claiming as their own) reaches adulthood.

Doesn't XT still have the potential to be activated by miners? Isn't dormant a better word?
Well technically it is. One could argue that as long as a proposal exists there is a chance for it to get activated by miners. If we were talking about probabilities though, it would be very close to null.

I'm reserving judgment about BU. It's possible there's nefarious code in there to steal the bitcoins of ignorant big blockers. I think we can all agree that would be hilarious.
Unlimited blocksize is nefarious by itself. It's like trying to put unlimited cargo on a plane; good luck with that.

Repeating the same BS doesn't make it better. BU does not mean unlimited blocksize. Educate yourself before talking.

I think that Peter R summed up this practical blocksize limit in Bitcoin Unlimited well by saying that:

It's an experiment. Core supporters say it's untested. So why not test it?

Holy shit, this thread is still going?! I just figured I'd check in since Coinbase decided to go with a dead fork overnight. Couldn't happen to a dumber company.


There have indeed been some very positive developments recently. Bitcoin Unlimited has also been officially released. Smiley

Horrible. Random people without any sufficient expertise think that know what is best (if one takes a closer look at the members page). Just don't come complaining about ad hominem, because this isn't the case.

I guess this is XT camps latest attempt to grasp at straws and force their way into relevancy. By getting coinbase to run some of their nodes they are hoping for a modicum of legitimacy.

Yup. I'm still not sure why randoms think that they have much influence.

Thats funny, brg444.  If you were being ironic, I would say you were very clever, but I get the feeling you are not.
It is quite ironic that XT is dead.

@Westin Unfortunately most of the savvy big blockers switched forums. Echo-chambers for everybody!!!

Warning: Confrmed Gavinista

It's clear as day to anyone not delusional that what it proposes is simply impossible hence why it's nothing but vapor ware. Sure you put out a client where every local node is able to select their "acceptable" block size. Big deal. Such ingenuity!

Fuck off.

Bitcoin unlimited doesn't exist.

Wake up lil' brg444.  It was all a bad dream.  Bitcoin Unlimited isn't real.  You're safe now with Mama Core.  


It's a wonder Gavin has yet to comment on it since joining the mental ward bitco.in. Probably even he realizes how bat-shit crazy the idea is.

LOL

I guess you enjoy being the laughing stock of the dev community Peter  Cheesy Cheesy

You might have convinced yourself that BU is a thing but clearly you've haven't thought this through properly.

It's clear as day to anyone not delusional that what it proposes is simply impossible hence why it's nothing but vapor ware. Sure you put out a client where every local node is able to select their "acceptable" block size. Big deal. Such ingenuity!

I guess if your intention is to routinely track consensus fork yourself off the network then you've got a thing....
