folks? still that block-discussion going on?

isnt it obv meanwhile? classic wont succeed, miners are hesitant to switch.

but core will have to accept a 2MB hardfork in 2017. miners want that.

so case closed. nothing to see here anymore.

Feel free to try to change the subject. But Adam might bite your hand. Smiley

haha! hey adam, how about some soccertalk? i heard manchester united got sacked tonight?  Smiley

The Chinese miners sent a group letter to Core pledging that they would not change client software, but would they please give a date for a 2MB hard fork and tell us when they decide in the next three weeks?

date for HF is march/april 2017.

where i got that from? sources.  Tongue

looks like classic wont get enough hashpower. i dont expect much more miners to join the train.

nice, but its the blocks that matter and there we only see 1 block so far. pretty disappointing if you ask me.

Antpool hasn't switched yet. They're expecting to do so soon.

What do you think would happen in a BJA Commiepocalypse situation?

Most Bitcoin companies in China are as committed and decent as any bitcoiner (cue lambie), but I'm not comfortable with having to trust a socialist dictatorship to not interfere. They don't have to nationalize anything. That's what you do in a country when you are used to having to justify your actions. The chinese government will only have to make a few phone calls. I don't see why they would do such a thing, but again, I don't like having to trust them.

I agree with that. The problem is that they could shut us down or pressure the miners to adopt some "features" that benefit the Sate.  I don't know what those features may be, or even if they would bother us at all, but the fact that they can do it is contrary to the design and principles of Bitcoin.

you see if they have to add some "features" that the chinese gov wants its pretty easy and completely different from our problems at the moment. we would simply fork away. the reason we have so much discussion at the moment is just because both sides have arguments on their side, but in such a situation we would fork in 24h and thats it.

true, but on the other hand if the chinese miners are cut off, basically nothing changes. diff maybe to high for a while but thats it.

ich meinte, dass sich die anzahl der noch nicht gemineten blöcke verringert und dadurch in gewisser weise das angebot an diesen noch nicht gefundenen coins mindert.

ja, aber dieser effekt läuft immer gleich schnell ab. genau dafür ist die difficulty ja da, die inflation soll immer möglichst gleich bleiben.
2055  Local / Trading und Spekulation / Re: Der Aktuelle Kursverlauf on: February 14, 2016, 03:33:31 PM
difficulty folgt preis

nicht eher andersrum?
difficulty steigt. es wurden mehr blöcke gefunden. verknappung des minebaren btcangebots und damit steigt der preis

naja, die anzahl der gefundenen blöcke bleibt ja immer konstant und hat daher schonmal keinen einfluss auf das angebot und somit den preis.

ein höherer preis bedeutet das mehr miner ans netz gehen können welche bisher nicht rentabel arbeiten konnten, folglich steigt die diff. teilweise auch um monate verzögert da ein grosser preissprung bedeutet das ASICs in grossen mengen grordert werden welche monate brauchen bis sie ans netz gehen.
2056  Local / Trading und Spekulation / Re: Der Aktuelle Kursverlauf on: February 14, 2016, 03:01:25 PM
400$ überschritten.
Hoffentlich hälts diesmal

und wie hängen difficulty und preis jetzt zusammen?  Cool

Das ist eine gute Frage. Hängen die überhaupt zusammen  Huh  Cool

difficulty folgt preis

afaik (chinese) miners are determined to HF to 2MB. so i dont see is as "inevitable" but i expect it to happen.


It would be interesting to see your source for this.  

mostly IRC

Surely there may be some discussion of various hardfork possibilities, but when push comes to shove, there seems to be no need for a hardfork, if a very large majority are already inclined to agree to the change from 1mb to 2mb (if that is what you are talking about).

HF doesnt mean two competing forks. its just means to hardcode 1MB -> 2MB at block number xyz. even if we have 100% consensus we will have to HF

We're already seeing blocks fill up on this pump. I'm curious as to how a rally can be sustained when confirmation times take hours.

the question is: will confirmation times for bigger transactions (lets say 100$+) really take longer? i mean if i want to transfer for example 5 BTC to an exchange i just make the fee 3$ or whatever and that's it!

the only TXs that will really suffer are the small and micro ones.


All of my most recent transfers of BTC over the past 6 months or so have included a transaction fee of between .0001 and .0002 BTC, which was generally between $.07 to $.09, and varying transaction sizes of .045BTC and 30BTC..., so your description of a possible $3 transaction fee seems to be quite excessive and outside of actual expected experiences... and really, there may be a bit of an incentive to transfer larger amounts because the transaction fee is the same no matter the amount transferred.

indeed 3$ is exaggerated. my point was that TXs bigger than just a few $s will most likely have no issues in an eventual TX-jam.
2059  Economy / Speculation / Re: Wall Observer BTC/USD - Bitcoin price movement tracking & discussion on: February 14, 2016, 01:22:00 AM
Bitcoin now has a rather nice flag formation after the rise from 200-500 with little media fanfare. The alt's are waking up and the halving is approaching. The only thing keeping bitcoin back is the blocksize debate which will soon resolve either by a HF with majority of miner support, or with Core acquiescing to the demands of the market and miners (3 weeks!) and fixing a 2mb blocksize HF in the roadmap.

The Chinese will stick with Core, they are quite conservative with respect to leadership. I'd be surprised to see Core implement 2MB blocks in addition to segregated witness, but we'll see.

And so long, farewell, auf wiedersehen 300s!
I'm actually pleasantly surprised with the steady price increase recently. Does anyone know the reasoning behind the increase? Does it have anything to do with the lack of users moving to classic or something, and now that the investors see that, they're buying again?

Or has Classic caused the increase as more users flock to it?

i think thats the reason. miners are hesitant and so a contentious HF is for the moment highly unlikely. 95% HF in 2017 is therefore highly likely.


@ImI:  Why do you keep framing the issue as if a hard fork is inevitable?  Why is a hardfork needed in the first place?  I think that threatening and even engaging in action to employ a hard fork is what causes so much contentious behavior from a large number of persons who become more entrenched in their positions because the solution is framed as being a hardfork.

There seems to be no reason for a hardfork, except one that strives to fundamentally change bitcoin's currently existing consensus based governance mechanism. 

afaik (chinese) miners are determined to HF to 2MB. so i dont see is as "inevitable" but i expect it to happen.
