Topic: Gov attack throught BUcoin agenda comming soon (Read 1342 times)

It has already been thought and talked. Bitcoin Unlimited is dogshit and will fail as soon as the dev team has to start taking real decisions in a real scenario. They would not be able to get anything done without copy-pasting 99% of Core's code.

Bitcoin Unlimited will lead to node centralization, period, stop being delusional about this. They will also lead to a fatal bug because they are reckless compared to the conservative and adult approach of Core.

Bitcoin is either digital gold (with a 2nd layer on top for the currency features) or it's BUcoin with a centralized network and guaranteed disaster long term (or even mid).

here is the mindblowing thing though.

BTCC say they are ready to make a block with a p2wpkh tx in it.

so why dont they do a test. and make a block with a p2wpkh tx in it. and show how 'compatible' all nodes are..
after all isnt that the point/ their 'promise' of going soft. that nodes of any type/age wont reject blocks containing p2wpkh tx's

very worse case, btcc block gets rejected, which blockstream have $90m to pay btcc, ~$13k for a one block test
or due to the partnership between btcc/blockstream thanks to barry silbert(dcg) they just treat it as a 3 second reject and be like all other pools that dont win. and not need to hand over funds, because its not a loss of ~$13k.. its just not a win of ~$13k

best case. the block is accepted and that gains the network confidence they desperately need

They can't do it due to bitcoin nature as decentralized digital currency, anyway bitcoin doesn't harm them.
It's not a good move to create another coin which will fail in the market, why? Because it need people trust and higher value than bitcoin that impossible to achieve. They need more than they got, because they need to defeat people all around the world who have invested in bitcoin.

Yes, I understand your anxiety. I can scarcely contain my anticipation as well. But we are doing. Quietly amassing commitment from hash power.

All is going according to plan.

Excellent.

^^^  This guy gets it. 

We must adhere to consensus and decentralization and not succumb to small group of greedy BU miners 

the smart community dont care about hashrate majority. unless nodes will accept the change, hash is a meaningless bucket filled with orphans and rejects.

nodes mean more than hash. the community know this. thats why the smart pools (60% undecided either way) are not deciding.
core failed by bypassing node consensus before hash consensus.
they shot themselves in the foot thinking they could skip a step

You dipshits will never get community consensus, only hashrate majority. 

oh look at the blockstream centralists wanting non-core implementations to fork off..
they cant cope that the community want consensus and not dictators.

blockstream centralists are now so desperate that they are no longer(playing a victim card) shouting out fear of forks.. but instead (dropped their victim card) to now be begging other implementations to fork.. but atleast they are now admitting their centralist desires

desperate desperate desperate

lets just concentrate on using the consensus code. and let the corporations fall into issues of not repaying their $90m by not being able to commercialise bitcoin to repay investors.

i could tell blockstream was getting thin on funds last year when they were complaining it cost them $10k just to be members of hyper ledger.
after all if they still had multiple millions free and clear. $10k would feel like pennies.. but if they are near empty. $10k would hurt them, which they admit it had.

Hurry up then, the sooner this clowncar crashes and burns the better




Anyone who wants to buy Unlimited Coins, I'm bulk selling if it forks: 0.2 BTC each. Generous offer, ends midnight March 1st 2017

$100 million for just power tussle, if this continue without amicable solution, I can't see any winner here because both sides will surely lose out, this is problem when someone has money and know not what to do with it

I'm not a big blocker but I can read.  BU now has more miner support than Segwit.  Don't know what they're waiting for but it's coming. 

lol where's the BU hardfork then?


Hurry up and fork, this is like one of those japanese cartoons where the characters take the whole half-hour to talk about the massive fight they're about to have.


You've all been talking for 2 years, when will you actually do something?

the real funny thing about the OP's rant. is that he tries to pretend he cares about bitcoin with the lets hope common sense keeps the status quo of one open network of digital gold

sidnote: bitcoin is not digital gold. bitcoin is a digital asset, far better than digital gold in many many ways

he also pretends to detest government money. by mentioning government and rothchild divide and conquer agenda.

but here is the thing.
he himself is playing the divide and conquer game by trying to make core the victim who should win dictatorship. by pointing cores failures in the opposite direction.. rather than think/talk/ mention consensus of no kings.

ending his post with his ultimate desire.. to exit bitcoin when he can get $2000 of that government money he pretends to detest per coin.
"They will not stop $2,000 from happening this year."

here is some things that he needs to realise.

1. the drama of the PBOC visit btcc, irs visit circle and coinbase began from the blockstream rumour mill.. barry silbert(DCG) has ownership stakes in:
BTCC, coinbase, blockstream, and.. coindesk

so the rumour mill made a normal regulatory inspection sound like an attack. like barry's companies are being victimised. etc etc.

all of which is meaningless crap. because it does not affect consensus of the network or the code.

but the OP subtly is making it sound like core is the victim and if people stay in the sheep stroking arms of core, the price will rise to $2k this year

please wake up people and care more about consensus and the code

After PBOC has conducted their investigation on Chinese Exchangers and the fake volumes and market manipulation cases were put into stop, bitcoin users have again enkindled their trust to bitcoins. This point of time even if there are new threats to bitcoin it will still survive and may even surpass your prediction which is Two thoudand dollars this year.

The tide has turned against Core.  BU seem unstoppable here. 

hyperledger is FIAT2.0
blockstream are using bitcoin as the "experiment" messing with offchain/sidechain techniques to then hand those techniques to the bankers so that the bankers can have their 200+fiat interlaced and swappable chains(national currencies and other markets)

holding up bitcoin onchain growth just to let blockstream paid devs sandbox bitcoin to give time for hyperledger to overtake. is not helping bitcoin

Meanwhile, core can't get shit done without Satoshi's code. So what? You seem to have little understanding of the way open source development works. Or really any technological progress whatsoever. Every innovator is enabled by standing atop the giants that preceded her.

Franky, genuine question, what is the fear? what do you think is the ultimate goal of Blockstream and a hyperledger ? 

peer-2peer, Decentralised, distributed, cryptocurrencies are out of the box.  They have no chance now    

Every attempt to control and manipulate will only makes the next generation even more secure/control resistant.    good luck hahaha
