Naah, The blocksize war is an old-fashioned topic. Typically I am not sure why you are asking for it again is it just because of the recent ordinals Block crisis? For that even you are late. OP Block size is more than enough for now.

I am asking simply because of curiosity. I want to read about it, because I really have no clue about it. Simple as that.

Quick summary:

Some scammers wanted to create a new coin using bitcoin name.
They first tried to impose their idea to bitcoin (increase block size), but that idea was rejected by the majority miners.

So they forked the coin and created a new one, called bitcoin cash. Later on, they did anoyhert fork and created another coin, bitcoin sv, whose founder is the faketoshi.

Those fraudsters made a lot of money in both forks.

Later on bitcoin community created the Segwit upgrade, which created the concept of Block weight , virtually increasing Block size without reducing decentralization.

OP Block size is more than enough for now. What I am observing from the current developments and the global institutional interests Hash War, or you can say Reward War for Bitcoin is gonna be a hot topic. It is already discussed by different views but in coming years it will be the highlight of the industry.

I will order it. My primary goal is to educate myself in technical aspects of bitcoin. I believe that it will be beneficial to read the arguments of both sides.

Well, I respect your motive still.. Lets see what other have to share on it.

I don't know if anyone would be interested in digging up all those discussions from 2015 to 2017. There's a book on this that's available on Amazon and the reviews are pretty high. You may want to check that out if you want to save time from searching. I'm not forcing you but if you're interested then https://www.amazon.com/Blocksize-War-controls-Bitcoins-protocol/dp/B08YQMC2WM

Hello. I am interested in learning about "The blocksize war".

I have been in Bitcoin since 2020, and therefore, I don't know the history before 2020. I know that it was a "debate" regarding the block size, but I want to read details about it.

I can google it, but I don't know who to trust. So, knowing that there are many knowledgeable people in this forum, could you tell me more about this period?

Of course, any relevant website, video, article is more than welcome.
