as well as f*cked up code that actually gives them a competitive advantage for crappy bandwidth (selfish mining).

Chinese miners are to become increasingly obsolete, especially with the halvings and the pursue of more efficient chips.
Right inb4 16nm Bitfury.
Uh? No. I usually agree with you but silicon fabs & subsidized electricity are not moving out of China anytime soon... |

I do not consider off chain solutions to be a way to scale Bitcoin directly at all. We can scale Bitcoin directly, if Bitcoin will not do it alternative cryptocurrencies will. I do not see any reason why people would choose to use a layer build on top of the blockchain when they can just use the blockchain directly, easily, quickly and cheaply. Without the added complexion and abstraction that is required by having to use a third party on top of the blockchain in order to transact.
I think that you are fooling yourself if you think that Bitcoin can become the dominant currency of the world with high fees. Especially considering that it is not even a technological necessity yet. I accept that with far greater adoption this might be the case but blocking the growth in transaction volume now at this stage so early in its development will guarantee that Bitcoin will be outcompeted and obsolesced. I think that the blocksize limit should be significantly above the average transaction volume, this way the blocksize limit serves its original purpose as an anti spam feature, not as an economic policy tool for central planning, wielded by a group of technocrats.
Being wrong for so long and so often must hurt the ego, mister "I'm kind of an history bluff". Funny you don't seem to be learning from history though |

Another kick in the balls - Once I get some more sleep, I'll write up a post explaining why I think our hard-fork recommendation is safe
So now to plan b: That hard fork that would kill bitcoin?, well... Its not dangerous at all really. 4 legs good, 2 legs better!!! Tell your desperate boss he might have to resort to the Satoshi impersonation  |

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
That's about 80% of the hashing power. Pool maintainers are delegates of their clients, they wouldn't shake hands on a decision they feel others wouldn't agree with |

I checked the price of the bitcoin at the time when OP posted this thread and the difference (or the profit at the moment) is 86k+ if OP still has the bitcoins.
Are you off ya head? Bitcoin was over $600 when the OP sold his house for Bitcoin!!! That is two years, of being seriously underwater, so much so that I have no doubt at all that the OP has already sold most of his Bitcoins for way way less than Bitcoin is currently prices. Always happens. By putting his faith in Bitcoin, the OP has blown a small fortune. Oh how you like talking out your ass Mat. https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=508254.msg13263187#msg13263187OP is probably breaking even right now |

Bitcoin is ours!  Indeed. Bitcoin is defined by the code we choose to run. Thing is, no one wants to run your shitty code. |

The future is bright. All we need to do now is decentralize away from Blockstream and Core.
Yes yes Peter  Maybe if you wish for it hard enough it'll come true one day. Ever thought of writing Santa Claus about it? |
