What if the late game boss isn't Jihan or Roger? What if they are only puppets? What if we are fighting against a central bank? And what if this bank is located in China?

And what does it change?

If Jihan actually sold his soul to his fiat masters (which is quite possible), they might be looking for a chance to irreparably damage Bitcoin (given the mining capacity this dude possesses), but then we have to answer the question why he is not using his power immediately to hurt Bitcoin right now or hasn't already used it. What does it give to him to postpone his attack against Bitcoin (if he was given this task, of course)?

You think it could be a large bluff?

I'm no expert but to me it look like he's trying to scare the rest of bitcoiners to his way of thinking?

He don't want to hurt bitcoin as long as bitcoin benefits China/Bitmain. He wants to control bitcoin which is going end up as hurting bitcoin.

To have control over bitcoin without hurting it, he is lying about everything he can. If common people can't run nodes and only corporations which can afford to buy expensive computers do, how's that decentralized?

He is lying constantly to cover his evilness and trying to get people by his side. Bitcoin users ain't morons luckily.

The best thing BU coiners can ever do is dumping all their Bitcoins coins for BTU's and stay there forever. I don't care if the price crashes to 100$.

it seems the segwit2x proposal is compatible with the current segwit proposal and it will be for activation before 1 August

https://lists.linuxfoundation.org/pipermail/bitcoin-segwit2x/2017-June/000042.html

jihan cant avoid this now. Because if he do then will be fork off from the network and the competitors will take his place.
I think this power game in bitcoin will be a lesson to universities around the world about game theory.

Thats true, but it could get messy. Who knows what the little fella will do. He could be talking with the other miners to join him right now.

other miners should be less blinded by their controlling desires and realise if they decide to try and impose their will on users they ain't gonna have anything to mine.

But theyre already imposing their will in the state where BTC is on right now. Why do you think its in this situation? The miners will go wherever it takes them to make more money.

Sure, bitcoiners have their faults. But we are up against far greedier, more stupid and more corrupt forces than ourselves.

The ICBC pushes its pet Bitmain to make half-arsed power plays, and it dumped a few thousand coins and etherea on the market to decimate the price. Doesn't work.

The CIA pushed Hearn around to introduce heartbleed and Gavin to get big blocks and cut off the first adopters. Didn't work.

Ethereum scams, backed by some banks. Don't work.

No, there hasn't been a concerted push by all the central banks yet, and that would be a proper struggle, but they're mostly too complacent and foolish to understand how dangerous bitcoin is, how it breaks everything.

It even shattered satoshi's vision.

It's more likely the ICBC. trades on pink sheets, but has huge RMB 'capital'. no way to follow the money

no amount of tinkering like this can stop the bitcoin protocol.

This is getting tricky. It used to be between the miners and the core developers, now there's also the hardware manufacturer who wants to rule the BTC world.

I wish simple users who have more power. But everybody shall remember we will have to power to choose the leading coin if there's a hard fork.

Are you saying the users are those who choose the active chain? Like some sort of User activated (chosen) fork, the miners won't stand for them not having complete control, you'll use the fork they choose and you'll like it!

post like that shows and the low quality of that persons. This guys are so stupid and arrogance that not even release that the majority in bitcoin community hate them and a red flag for everyone.

actually what you will find is that although bitcoins first 'coin release' was in january 2009..
satoshi sent out emails in mid to late 2008 seeking anyone who might be interested in being involved in bitcoin.

this is not an ico... Tongue

In fact I believe it was me who got Wei Dai's b-money reference added to Satoshi's bitcoin paper when he emailed me about hashcash back in 2008. If like Hal Finney I'd actually tried to run the miner back then, I may too be sitting on some genesis/bootstrap era coins.

Jihan Wu is currently giving a speech in some chinese blockchain event about scaling bitcoin:

https://twitter.com/ViaBTC/status/874822283033845760

I wonder what kind of lies is he propagandizing right now. I guess he is already out there promoting his ChinaCoin hard-fork.

If they wanted segwit, they would activate it already with BIP141.

It seems chinese ppl are very polite. If Jihan was giving a speech in Europe or USA right now someone for sure will throw him tomatoes or eggs.
I can predict this will happen even in China if bitcoin price crash below 2000$ or even worst if price crash below 1000$ from his actions then i will not like to be in his place. Many will look for him Cheesy

I love how Roger and his cronies always spew this Satoshi's view bullshit. It's like they are trying to make Satoshi a God and his vision infallible but if they look at his post history it was clear that things changed with time. He just isn't here anymore to keep pushing through changes and that's a good thing you don't want one person being the leader and king of a coin, now if only Jihan would figure that out.
