I have been following the recent block size debates through the mailing list. I had hoped the debate would resolve and that a fork proposal would achieve widespread consensus. However with the formal release of Bitcoin XT 0.11A, this looks unlikely to happen, and so I am forced to share my concerns about this very dangerous fork.
The developers of this pretender-Bitcoin claim to be following my original vision, but nothing could be further from the truth. When I designed Bitcoin, I designed it in such a way as to make future modifications to the consensus rules difficult without near unanimous agreement. Bitcoin was designed to be protected from the influence of charismatic leaders, even if their name is Gavin Andresen, Barack Obama, or Satoshi Nakamoto. Nearly everyone has to agree on a change, and they have to do it without being forced or pressured into it. By doing a fork in this way, these developers are violating the "original vision" they claim to honour.
They use my old writings to make claims about what Bitcoin was supposed to be. However I acknowledge that a lot has changed since that time, and new knowledge has been gained that contradicts some of my early opinions. For example I didn't anticipate pooled mining and its effects on the security of the network. Making Bitcoin a competitive monetary system while also preserving its security properties is not a trivial problem, and we should take more time to come up with a robust solution. I suspect we need a better incentive for users to run nodes instead of relying solely on altruism.
If two developers can fork Bitcoin and succeed in redefining what "Bitcoin" is, in the face of widespread technical criticism and through the use of populist tactics, then I will have no choice but to declare Bitcoin a failed project. Bitcoin was meant to be both technically and socially robust. This present situation has been very disappointing to watch unfold.

Yes it looks bad for you but at least you have more happier players which means they will stick around and in the long run more profit for you. Keep it up good platforms you have running ryan. Bustabit is always a fun place to hang but the spam in the chat is way to much.

NEW UPDATE FROM BITMEDIA.IOSince now we have a real-time auction system. That means that each advertiser can compare his bid with other bids and see the percentage of impressions he can get. Our team is not going to stop on the auction system. Soon our advertisers will choose the sources and set separate bids for them, so publishers with good audience will increase their profit sharply. Follow our news and be the first to find out everything! We work to maximize your income!

the network pool seems bit odd why not try bitmedia.io where you can pick your sources. And advertise real business not just other faucet sites and news sites.
|
|
|
|
|
any new site or business come and join bitmedia.io to advertise it.
we guarantee the traffic is pure quality. Now you can choose what sources you want.
|
|
|
|
|
We have started testing the auction system in the closed beta
soon it will be available for every our advertiser and they will sort the sources and set up different bids.

Adverti.io lets advertisers pay with USD and Bitcoin. We have a dedicated support team and we offer real-time statistics. I can assure you that we will approve ads within 24 hours You accept adult sites for publishers? At the moment we do not, but if we implement a filter it will be accepted. This is something we have received a lot of requests regarding, and we are considering it. I'm sure a filter is easy to implement if you really wanted to do it  we are working on that for you, as stated in our PM. |

Didn`t make it to test the source tracking system of BitMedia.IO and get a bonus? Well, BitMedia team is happy to say that you still have some time to enjoy our
effective ads and get a 20% bonus from the campaign refill amount.
Sign up, start advertising and get a bonus! But hurry up, the offer is limited!
we have a geo tag feature where you can see all stats. no need to get an outside link builder to get your stats.
our advertisers will be able to choose the sources for publishing ads as well as regulate bids, if you see no conversions and just a waste of clicks you can now
exclude those sources from your publishers.
we are also like adsense where its paid per clicks. but now you can check what best works for you.
