OP, the followers of Bitcoin Cash can say anything they want, but be careful with their subjective opinions. Some of them are designed to confuse, manipulate and to take you away from the facts.
At any rate, all I know is the word "Bitcoin" refers to what "they" call "Bitcoin Core" for most people except for Roger Ver and his followers.
If Roger Ver started a Bitcoin giveaway, be careful. It might not be really Bitcoin. Hahaha.
you continue to think everyone that detests cores centralism must love ver...
core and ver are the same family!!!
stop playing into the kardashian drama that there should only exist kardashian fanclubs of only 2 teams all related to each other
you are too obsessed with a 2 member of the same family drama you dont notice or care about the billions of people that want nothing to do with any member of the family.
and yes kenye west(gavin) is also an oldie now but still part of the kardashian family
ok
final chance
imagine someone wipes snot onto a lump of cheese... then cuts the cheese in half... and sends his 2 kids out to hand them to you.. and says
slice A is healthy. it builds your immunity by a special system called herd immunity(
you ingest the germs and become immune to it in the future)
slice B is nasty snot
only one can be branded as bitcheese, you choose
either way. your still eating snot and you have been fooled into eating it. and either way the person handing you both slices gets the brand name bitcheese
stop eating the snot handed to you by the same person. demand that there should be more on the menu from diffrnt people. stop settling for only snot cheese
anyway im still laughing that carlton banks had no clueso spewed out some bip buzzwords in the segwit compatibility topic about flip flopping from 91 to 141 but he aint sure if any used 91 (meaning he has no clue.. but as long as he mentions a few bip number it atleast sounds like he is technical)
then he and others mention if certain parties hated core why did they jump to mine cash then jump back to core... the reason being is that pools realised that it was all kardashian drama and not a real second option away from the family. thus they just gave up
again BCH and BTC are one big family. but neither deserve the name as they both diverted off track.
as for carlton pulling out a statement about addresses beginning 1 cannot be used. no he is just making up stories that people say things they didnt even say.
anyway. segwit tx's are not validatable to legacy nodes.
and a legacy node would not be accepted to broadcast a segwit tx thus segwit is not interoperable with legacy.
thats why legacy nodes are deemed as downstream nodes (separate from the peer to peer network) and segwit blocks need to be filtered.
gmaxwell, lukejr and even p.wuille talk about and admit to it (actual devs)... not the achowe carlton fanboys that just kiss ass
achowe, carlton banks and othrs like lauda. are not real devs. they are just fanclub crowd control handing out glossy leaflets
as for carlton denying there is any proof of an agenda to cause a bilateral split.. gmax literally pleaded for one.
What you are describing is what
I and others call a bilaterial hardfork--
where both sides reject the other.
I tried to convince the authors of BIP101 to make their proposal bilateral by requiring the sign bit be set in the version in their blocks (existing nodes require it to be unset). Sadly, the proposals authors were aggressively against this.
but as always.. all i can see that you will reply with
"wrong bercause you love ver"
which in itself is wrong and has not content to counter the actual details.
you are turning into carlton because its the game he played in 2017
and the game achowe played in 2016
so maybe if you are unsure about the details. its maybe worth not stating things you dont know. and find a topic you do know about and have researched. (proper research, EG reading code. speaking to the actual devs. reading things from the actual devs.. not their crowd control)
