Wladimir van der Laan (the maintainer) put himself down early on as “weakly against”. In fact, here is what he thinks about the block size issue after months of debate:
Yes, [my position remains the same]. If we’ve learned anything from the 2008 subprime bubble crisis it should be that nothing ever keeps growing exponentially, and assuming so can be hazardous... Changing the rules in a decentralized consensus system is a very difficult problem and I don’t think we’ll resolve it any time soon.
Remember, this is the man who effectively runs Bitcoin, due to Core’s monopoly status amongst miners. He believes that technological progress isn’t going to keep going because in 2008 a lot of banks made bad loans to American homeowners.

Open source ey? Only if Wladimir decides to use your code. And only him. Haha
Now, Speaking of legit coins that will survive. Has any code been submitted or approved for KYC/AML/AML5? How about for biometrics verification? I have no idea but my guess no way in hell. This is why Bitcoin BTC has no chance in crypto hell of ever surviving as the real Bitcoin. Good luck with your 5x and total freeze and collapse BTC. I’ll take my chances with my penny coins which most should be in the new top 10 after the collapse.

Edit 2.0 - No answer? No answer about how decentralized and open source Bitcoin is? How can people not have seen this from their first month in, before they made it clear. You think the govt is gonna let some douche like Ver or the other homosexual Brock Pierce just take over crypto, and destroy the dollar? Haha They’re both fronts, not billionaires. Mediocre Sellouts.
With Ixcoin I knew from day one what it would take to be number 1, and living in fantasy land and thinking you muppets are gonna kill the fed was hilarious. The fed has dropped entire nations and their dictators with ease when their tried to compete with or replace the dollar. Romania, Iraq, and numerous others. But oh, some homos are gonna lead the way to killing the fed with a “decentralized” “open source” coin. And for year you all called me delusional.
You’re all monkeys and you’ll be put in a cage. And it’s tragic but I see why they believe that’s where you belong. I yell the truth for no pay and without any person sending, for 9 years, and NOBODY LISTENED. I got tired of being shocked and decided to just laugh at the imminent destruction of your freedoms. Most just turned to animals with those freedoms: ie. Hollywood and Silicone Valley and I’ll throw in Wall Street too. Greed, immorality, destroying the family and human stupidity destroyed America, and there’s no going back, it’s time to crash and burn like Rome, Greece, Spain. Amerika will never rise again to what it once was and it can only blame itself, from the rich who bought the politicians to the poor who voted for them.
Welcome China, Russia and EU as the new super powers but I think the US knows this so they’ll join China but they don’t realize they’ll end up being China’s pet dog.
Cornmeister won't give any answers and only more questions. You will have to break it down again barney stylz for the fools in the back row who love to swipe their phones and pay in places like sweden to be microchipped like dogs and ridicule luddites like us using cash how they will stay out of the digital cage waiting for them with their metaID and all other manner of bullshit.
Oh look, I still had a few merit points. Lol. Like always thanks for the truth and the laughs.
Sadly, they’ll use the virus to ban cash, like I said ~7 years ago. It’s a done deal, they’re just waiting for the vaxxed to start dropping like flies so they can take dictator powers that ignore the constituting and every other division of power. I still smell stinky Obama and his She-Husband coming back. For years I can’t get it out of my mind. Maybe I’m loosing it. That’s what my good friend Traxo says. I guess he showed his true colors, cause I can see as clear as day, my friend.
They’re human testing the new pin sized chip now. Metanet is almost done, Elon’s microwaves will be in place soon. The time is near when we men and women will have to make a choice of life and death. Mine is made, unless my courage is faking me out. No one knows until you’re in a gulag or that blade is at your throat.
Great time to be alive and watch the Apocalypse reveal itself right in-front of us.
