The sooner the better, it changes or remains the same it still has an uphill struggle to reach it's peak and will still have support from all those currently involved, it's hard to scroll through all these threads and find something that is not focused on this topic right now.

Myself personally I would prefer it to be left as it is with the initial intention left alone to take whatever path it needs to take, if it is not good enough for what people need then an alternative coin will need to be created and run on it's own merits and not on the back of what Bitcoin has thus far achieved.  This is just my opinion and with that said whichever way it goes I will still support it.

Other gems include:

  • "Bitcoin is great because it's open source, but you can't fork the code"
  • "Bitcoin is great because it's permissionless, but you can't use it to buy a cup of coffee"
  • "Bitcoin is great because only the economic majority can decide the rules of the network, but only when I personally agree with them"

The small-blockians are basically just generating oxymorons to throw around.

3 out of 5 core devs are on the BlockStream paycheck list. The core development team can be bought out but not bitcoin itself. The bitcoin should have kicked out the core developers that work for BlockStream, bitcoin needs to adjust and move forward and it can't happen if 3 of 5  core  developers are against innovation.

we all just want agreement

Pretty much this.
Hopefully there can be some kind of compromise reached in the next few months. If not hopefully one wins & the other dies so we can continue on the currently crumbling road that leads to the moon.

I find it amusing that so many posters
are screaming "Don't touch core.  Anything
that's not core isn't Bitcoin!".

I suspect many of those were the
same people who last year said
"Bitcoin isn't decentralized.
It's controlled by a few core devs!"
