Topic: The Barry Silbert segwit2x agreement with >80% miner support. - page 6. (Read 120029 times)

Is there a decent Chrome extension for that?  I've been going through a couple of them and they look like they're either paid, spyware or both.
For all his vocal support of hard forks, he doesn't seem to have figured out what they actually are yet.

Who said anything about hard fork? That's the next hurdle since BIP91 activates BIP141 which is a soft fork so no users need to adjust their nodes. If 2x goes ahead in 3 months' time and most users remain on core nodes, we have a split where the vast majority of users will be using a client running off a minority hashrate chain.

Yes very interesting.

So I guess we all can learn now how a HF could work very nicely.

... And show to the outer world that bitcoin can move.

I went to bed anxious about how close it was and woke up to this. Nice. Let's see how smoothly, or otherwise, the aggressive bip91 deployment process goes. I suspect every remaining pool will be scrambling to signal segwit to not be left with orphaned blocks very shortly and it will be a non-event. Only 3 pools remain not signalling BIP91 but they can't be living in a cave and have been ignoring this. They're just protesting futilely.

As I type, it appears that the locking in of BIP91 is pretty much a done deal.  At first, we thought it was a nailbiter; however, in these final hours, the BIP91  signaling really picked up...

Currently, there are only 35 blocks remaining in this signal period and 20 of them need to be BIP91 in order for BIP91 to lock-in.  Therefore of the remaining blocks, only 57% need to signal BIP91 in order to lock it in, and then we move on to the next stage... of this matter which has to first do with the locking in of segwit and next with the activation of segwit.... It is quite likely that some of the drama has been quelled by this BIP91 locking in (and so quickly, too); however, it is likely that more drama will o.k. because THIS IS bitcoin.


Anyhow,  let's move on guys (and girl).    Our next relevant step is the monitoring the locking in of segwit.  That part should not be controversial, right?  We are going to need some new graphs and charts for such monitoring.... Exciting!!!

Of course you  have to tailor your approach to your personal circumstances, and allocate your time and your money in a way that is comfortable to yourself.

I tend to take a relatively conservative approach to my bitcoin investment and strategy.  So, I do find that whenever I add some new aspect to play around with my bitcoin holdings (and moving it around as you say), I have to spend a bit of time to figure out how I am going to do it and incorporate it into my plan. 

For example, I have only recently gotten involved in a small amount of bitcoin lending.  I pretty much went down that path only because another poster was talking about the process.. and initially, I said that I did not do it for various reasons.  Then after he explained the process, I decided to start with a little, and then I added a little more and then I added  a little more.   My point is sometimes there is a bit of a learning curve that is needed to employ before you change your practice, and maybe if you are not willing to put some time into one learning curve or another, then that particular strategy or avenue is not suitable for you at that time in your life.  A similar reason that I never got into mining.. because I did not want to invest in some of the learning curve, even though there are certain payoffs that may not be completely be financial (as you already mentioned in your discussion with Searing)

I am impatiently refreshing the Coin Dance website every 30 seconds or so, for the last two hours. This is going to be epic. If BIP 91 is activated, then there is going to be a huge spike in the exchange rates, unlike anything we had seen in the past. For the BIP 91 to lock in, a total of 50 blocks are required out of the remaining 66 (75.75%). God! This is more intense than the WW2!

Bitcoin.com was signaling for BIP91 then stopped. Also, Gemini has made a statement that they may support BCC while Coinbase (GDAX) will not.

Bitcoin.com still signaling for BU

On reddit a confirmed Dev said they haven't rolled out the BIP91 code to every server but well ....

at least enough other pools joined that the 80% should be met without problems.

Indeed, that's why I have a footprint in at least a little bit of most everything.  

The only thing I'm married to is my wife, the rest is all lead by speculation and earnings. 

I'll just disregard the last bit after the period.  You live for the crypto adrenaline, I know it!

Because that's what I live for. 

Holy shit, it's about time! Yay!

Bravo, you're making me very proud right now!

I never sell all, just enough to pay bills and buy more

Bravo! I tell you Forex pales in comparison to the wild dragon that is BTC!

I hope you did not sell your entire position cause it's going to go to $3000+  - called it lol

The 2x or rather the "x" part is an unknown now. One baby step at a time shall we But SegWit is useful for all the other neat toys that Core came up with.

Also I'm not quite understanding what you mean by how people are starting all this. Did you use google translate or something cause your grammar is difficult to parse.
