I think "bitcoin unlimited" is better than segwit. Yes or not? Becouse it more undestandable. Segwit it fail try to prevent BITCOIN CLASSIC existince. Segwit posible to do with litecoin, becouse litecoin have almost empty blocks, and in fact have zero segwit style transactions. But segwit imposible with BITCOIN, becouse segwit style transactions will be detected like double spend by BITCOIN CLASSIC miners very fast (1 or 2 blocks) and new blockchain will be regected. ----------- I think will be all 3 sort of BITCOIN BITCOIN-CLASSIC BITCOIN-SEGWIT BITCOIN-UNLIMITED And it will start new wave of speculations. ----------- Exchangers Position: poloniex.com/press-releases/2017.03.17-Hard-Fork/ ------------- Current statistic: blockchain.info/charts/bitcoin-unlimited-share blockchain.info/charts/bip-9-segwit
Miners have low acceptance for bitcoin classic, what about exchangers? Current support of exchangers and prices will completely change the distribution of miners.
Core:- egotistical control freaks, trying to change the rules of the game with segwit. There are definite benefits to segwit but needs to be explored more first. Some of their concerns about centralization are valid (see courtois) Big blocks:- I'm very skeptical of Craig wright (also egotistical). I am not sure if I fully trust koblitz curves (Backdoor?). Otherwise no issues.

Nobody cares about what you have to say. Stop trying so hard. Saged.

bigger blocks require nodes to upgrade their hardware nodes aren't getting anything for their service to the network and are promoting decentralization when that service becomes more expensive the network becomes less decentralized
Juan Sanders
>bigger blocks require nodes to upgrade their hardware Segwit also require
Jackson Peterson
I don't think anything is going to happen august 1st and the segwit2x crew is going to lose support over the next few months transaction fees are cheap again because the network isn't being spammed the idea behind the segwit upgrade is to bring in a second layer and make smart contracts and payment channels possible. A couple different companies already designing code to do this, but the protocol still allows anyone to design code for the users to use. It isn't like rootstock or blockstream would control 100% of the transactions moving through segwit/LN
I don't think we will fork in the upcoming months, but I'm preparing just in case they do
Mason Brown
sure segwit is more memory too, but it's limited to 1.8mb or whatever and opens up an entire network of 2nd layer transactions
when you look at segwit2x or unlimited the requirements to upgrade node software increase greatly every time they decide to up the blocksize, if bitcoin catches on like we all hope the node requirements would be immense with segwit2x and unlimited vs just segwit alone

You know you're full of shit when you have to bump your own thread.
Connor White
I'm good with it staying the same and seeing companies like rootstock and blockstream jump to vertcoin and litecoin, because those 2 coins already have the software necessary to support their code I'm ok with bitcoin switching to segwit I'm not ok with segwit2x or unlimited because it's not supported by our best developers, it has problems on the testnet, and it seems to back by a group a people that didn't get us to where we are today. The miners and ver didn't contribute to the current code, and craig wright has been proven to be a fraud.
Noah Garcia
>2nd layer transactions anywey all this staff need to be tested by years before.
Kayden Powell
it's been tested for over a year on testnet and several months now on live blockchains such as vertcoin and later litecoin
Christopher Morris
>LTC FUD >SYS SHILL >SELF BUMPS >BTC DRAMA
Wow, this is a new level of cancer.
Kevin Perry
I thought BU was better too - guaranteed scaling.
However, looking at the behaviour of those who support it - jihan, ver, craight wright - I'm convinced that I'm wrong. There MUST be a reason such total dickbags support BU over segwit.
I find myself trying to be contrarian often, but in this case it involves my money so fuck that. I don't trust "fork your mother if you want fork" jihan, fake as fuck ver (the fuck is with his videos of him crying about war? those are so fucking fake holy shit), and scammer wright.
Wright is honestly the worst, he looks like such a faggot larper. One video of him 'hinting' he was satoshi years ago stirred memories of me in elementary school when I had chuunibyou. That fag is a scamming larper.
Ethan Cruz
>over a year on testnet not enougth BITCOIN CLASSIC will exist forever
Jack Diaz
what's not tested is segwit2x and they're trying to hardfork in 3 months! and they had an error which is you need the first block over 1mb to force the fork, so their plan is to spam the network and get over 1mb in the mempool for the block they plan to fork on unlimited nodes crashed multiple times the incompetence and ignorance of their developers is staggering
Cooper Thomas
yeah I'm ok with that, and I think that's what will happen in the next 3 months
Anthony Thomas
exchangers will not install this, to high risk
Adrian Bell
bump
Bentley Morris
they did test it.
and they fucked up. and they're pushing through ANYWAY. they are literally going to break bitcoin with segwit 2x lol.
nigga wtf are you talking about LOL. exchanges have no power. it's all mining pools that decide.
Jayden Jenkins
bump
Cameron Smith
yeah lol which I think is why nothing is going to happen, but I pulled my lending coins out and off the exchange and diversified a little just in case I think if any core developers or companies like rootstock blockstream jumped to a segwit coin things would get interesting but it's all what ifs and unlikely
Nicholas Powell
and not update bitcoin client from this moment the exchengers must say
William Lopez
bump
Cameron Walker
Fuck off nobody cares, saged.
Parker Nelson
bump
Noah Martin
So I should sell my BTC and wait what happends at the first of August?
Mason Wilson
for you have easy adoptation: BITCOIN Q AND A - LAST AND NEW Q`S:
1. SCALING "DRAMMA".
YOU WILL GET BITCOIN CLASSIC (REPLACE GOLD) AND BITCOIN MODERN (REPLACE DOLLAR). DOUBLE MONEY FOR BITCOIN HOLDERS.
EXCHANGERS MAKE BIG (IN BYTES) TRANSACTIONS FOR PAY LESS FEE, EXCHANGERS PAY MANY PEOPLE IN ONE TRANSACTION. WITH FIXED MAX BLOCK SIZE IT GIVES LESS TRANSACTIONS, BUT IS SERVES MORE PEOPLE.
You can have both segwit and BU on the same chain.
Gavin Flores
But software for this never released
Noah Cook
TYPICAL PROBLEM FOR BILLIONER: TO BUY APARTMENT FOR 15 YEARS ASIAN GIRLFREND AND IF JOURNALISTS SEE WILL BE THE SCANDAL WITH BITCOIN THERE IS NO PROBLEM WITH BITCOIN ONLY PROBLEM IS BITCOIN LOW PRICE AND LOW BITCOIN AMOUNT
this is true

BITCOIN PRICE WILL RISE, LIQUIDITY WILL INCREASE, APPLICATION WILL BE EXPANSIONED THIS IS THE EGYPTIAN PYRAMID AND NEVER WILL BE RUINED
