new pump incoming ... the crassic storm of poutrage FUD is just feeding the fire now, driving the vortex from the other side.

Anti-fragile demonstrations have been the biggest drivers for bitcoin price appreciation thus far.

FUD harder lusers, it's working for us Smiley

Tell me, are you french too?

its sad that the price has stopped growing, i hope that soon we will see the upwards tendencies once again

It turns out that the people who secure the Bitcoin network are very gullible. That might have something to do with it.

If I wanted to ragequit I would have spent my Bitcoins to spam the network.

Thankfully I am unique and special.

July 2017 is a very long wait
Cry Cry Cry


Nothing concrete, just another delay. And a delay was all blockstream wanted.   Cry
"Bitcoin and its users can go fuck themselves" seems to be the only take away from this   Cry

Ha ha.  You lose.  Again.  Just like I told you would happen.



We all lose, you fucking dimwit.

That's nice.  Go tell Bitcoin Obituaries all about your whiny poutrage and how you wanted 2MB blocks Right Meow.

The only way Honey Badger loses is if he starts giving a shit about your endless, petulant butthurt.   Kiss

it would be nice to get some estimate as to how much hashing power behind this meeting

oh wait these are pool right?

hahahaha they own 0 hashing power
Nah, BW, Antpool, Bitfury, BTCC, F2Pool all run most of the hashing power on their pools.

Final Statement of the meeting

Quote
On February 21st, 2016, in Hong Kong’s Cyberport, representatives from the bitcoin industry and members of the development community have agreed on the following points:

  • We understand that SegWit continues to be developed actively as a soft-fork and is likely to proceed towards release over the next two months, as originally scheduled.
  • We will continue to work with the entire Bitcoin protocol development community to develop, in public, a safe hard-fork based on the improvements in SegWit. The Bitcoin Core contributors present at the Bitcoin Roundtable will have an implementation of such a hard-fork available as a recommendation to Bitcoin Core within three months after the release of SegWit.

.....



https://medium.com/@bitcoinroundtable/bitcoin-roundtable-consensus-266d475a61ff#.exez94i1a

is the HF they are referring to a blocksize increase or a way of making segwit mandatory??

was this all for show?

"including an increase in the non-witness data to be around 2 MB, with the total size no more than 4 MB,"
still unclear, " non-witness data "  " total size no more than 4 MB" so 2MB for this segwit crap innovation, and +1MB to blocksize?Huh? totaling 4MB??
why can't they just do this :


FFS!

We'll see what magic they pull out of their arses; or if miners go gangsta on them and make Matts hair turn....some other fucked up colour.

It's better than the draft, but July 2017 is a very long wait.

I hope you've learned something here, besides what it feels like to be crushed by a 75,000 horsepower iCEBREAKER.


You'll always be a loser in my eyes.

PoS coming soon?
That should be coming sometime mid-2016 I think, so I'd expect it around June-July Smiley

link please

Although I am surprised to see anyone thought I had any principles, it does seem like the draft for the consensus is somewhat different from what I initially thought.

https://www.reddit.com/r/Bitcoin/comments/46qpua/bitcoin_roundtable_consensus_statement/

"This hard-fork is expected to include features which are currently being discussed within technical communities, including an increase in the maximum effective block size, to more than 2 MB and less than 4 MB, and will only be adopted with a broad support across the entire Bitcoin community."

I've partially accepted the fact that "big blockers" have lost this round and have been trying to figure out if there's any future for Bitcoin after the miners decided to go with Core. I was very encouraged by two things today:

1. Core will commit to a HF of at least 2MB and have the code ready for July. Even if the trigger is Feb 1 2017 it would mean that a lot of the uncertainty surrounding Bitcoins viability would be gone. 2MB with Segwit would allow Bitcoin to grow on the main chain. Not much, but maybe enough for it not to experience an economic collapse.

2. Miners were explicitly threatening to ditch Core if they didn't give them a bump in the block size limit within a given time frame. That is powerful. What little I've understood from this debate is that parts of core are manipulators and lying bastards and can't be trusted, so it would be nice if someone held a gun against their heads.

However, If the miners accept the wording quoted above then this agreement is a total loss. We've seen the phrase "maximum effective block size" before. It takes into account the theoretical increase from segwit and all the other witchcraft they've been talking about lately. Bitusher even started including LN blocks into the calculations in an earlier discussion in this thread. We might end up with less than 1MB maxBlockSize on the main chain by the looks of it.

In short, I'm as disappointed in me as you are.

I called it.

We're dealing with a management team that rejects as a matter of principle ANY accountability to stakeholders. It's fucking Divine Right of Kings. Do you think parliament could have forced King John to sign the Magna Carta without an army at their backs?  Our miners are looking pretty uncomfortable and out of place in their battle armor.]



Again.



Maybe there is something to this wisdom of the swamp people.

It just took the age of the internet for the rest of the world to understand what you're mumbling about.
