The JJG character is a real tour de force for NLC/BMB.

The dedication is very impressive.


I wasn't sure there for a while but he won my heart with steadfast determination and a ruthless penchant for mesmerising blocks of text.


I gave up long time ago with most of his "blocks of text." ... The guy is just insane, pure batsh!t crazy! ... I wish sometimes he had a bit of empathy to make his text more readable from the readers perspective. I can tell... because I write as a hobby and when reading other people's work... I tend to get inside their mind very quickly and that annoys me. And when it comes to JJG ... he writes most of his stuff from a self centered perspective. And that makes it hard to read... its like trying to listen to a song/track with/composed of blackboard/chalkboard screechings.

Hoping for the price to increase quick in oktober I think the prices will be going up by quite a lot looking at the past.
Staying around this grey area of 600 for a while now and no Idea where the next jump will be to.

We can phase in a change later if we get closer to needing it.

IMO it's a marketing thing.  It's tough to get people to buy into a system, if the network is technically incapable of supporting high transaction rates.

That thread still says it all. Some of my other favourite parts are

kiba:
Since a block restriction would allow generators to charge higher transaction fees, they might "vote" against an increase in the max size in the future.

It seems unlikely to be a real problem though.

(How wrong appamatto turned out to be, as it IS a real problem)

I'm very uncomfortable with this block size limit rule. This is a "protocol-rule" (not a "client-rule"), what makes it almost impossible to change once you have enough different softwares running the protocol. Take SMTP as an example... it's unchangeable.

I think we should schedule a large increase in the block size limit right now while the protocol rules are easier to change.


Indeed, we should have.



You come up with interesting synopsis of what you deem to be relevant facts in order to support your weak ass conclusions suggesting that bitcoin is supposedly in some kind of an emergency and needs some kind of blocksize limit increase...   it would be funny if it were not so lame, misleading and erroneous.    Roll Eyes



Indeed, we should have.


And we are, Segwit has already been released , activation code soon with 0.13.1 , and than 1-3 months till 95% over 2016 blocks.  Done. Be happy.


This poster who goes by the username "Andre#" will unlikely be happy no matter what happens... He appears to selectively chose facts and to complain about a problem that does not exist as if the problem actually did exist.

Bitcoin Core tweeted something about Segwit. The tweet had Europe's Final Coundown link. After couple of minutes the tweet was deleted.

The core meeting notes from 9/22/16 (contained in the last link) show apparent progress, no?  

In essence, Seg wit is getting closer and closer to going live, and apparently version 0.13.0 went live on 8/23/16, and seg wit support is likely going to be contained within version 0.13.1

Good morning Bitcoinland.

As usual... $608 on Bitcoinaverage.

Consolidation can't last forever though. Will month end spark the next leg up?

I like to see green on my price ticker again.
I was thinking that, maybe, the next big thing could be Scaling Bitcoin in Milan: I think some price changes could happen during and after the event.


i believe the next big thing for bitocin could be the realisation from the public that the banks are using a bitcoin type currency come 2018, this would hopefully open eyes up to the choices they have

at the least though the finance industry admits bitcoin works by implementing blockchain software across all financial systems and nations...
