Topic: SegWit2x Hovering ~ 80% (Read 390 times)
will we get 2 versions of bitcoins when that happens? i hope the segwit fork isnt violent like what happened to ETH
Not sure what your aim is, but the coinbase NYA voting is just expressing a position right now. The true signalling come next month when SegWit2x code is fully tested.
"Fully tested" in about as much time as it would take to test some tiny little bug fixes.It's fine. Signalling that they will signal is good enough for now - I see it as unlikely that they'll look at the proposal, which they know about anyway, and say "nah, line 637 is a poor line of code, we can't support this now".

SegWit2x is hovering +- 2% around 80% for the last couple of hours now...I guess the community has to keep enforcing BIP148? Relieving the pressure probably wouldn't be a good idea. Thoughts?

a better idea would be to find a common ground that everyone can be at least a little happy about. not things that can have a risk of splitting the chain.
Doesn't this mean that Segwit2x is happening? Or at least very likely to happen?
not necessarily. miners are not the whole bitcoin network. they are simply workers on the network and the nodes are the real back bone of the network which will enforce the changes.
so if nodes get behind this too, then it is ago. otherwise it will be disaster and split and endless arguments all over again...

If they finish the code AND nobody is backing out in the next few weeks then it IS happening.
So I guess you could say its "likely" to happen at the moment
EDIT: Just speaking for the SegWit part. If the 2 MB hard fork also happens we have to wait a couple of months.

Right now, it is at 87.5%. I am checking every ten minutes for the past 4-5 hours, and the support levels never dipped below the 87% mark. So we are all good at this point of time. But I understand that the implementation is still many months away. A lot can happen during this time. The code is not yet fully tested, so there is a possibility of bugs being discovered. But let's remain optimistic about the future.
This has become the champion lately with a large number of fans over 78% acceptance for this solution. It aims to move forward with two changes in the bitcoin network at the same time an optimization called Segregated Witness (SegWit) and an increase in the coded parameter that limits the size of its Transaction Blocks. This would require efforts beyond Soft Fork, requiring a Hard Fork to fix everything.
