Mike Hearn and XT are dead to me

[meono]

What is that of blacklisting?

I don't understand it really well

It's basically DDOS protection.

Yes, except who has the power to alter who is classified as an "attacker"?  Once you can blacklist an IP can't someone decide to apply to it anyone?

Mike is the first to admit the code isn't good, if you have a better proposal please submit it, I'm pretty sure Mike will approve it.

Someone already proposed a better target blocking.

This is very easy to change

Part of the blame for the FUD is due to the banning bitcoinXT discussion by Thermos.

So many is cluless when the bitcoinXT announced. They just rely on hear say and the whole blocksize drama

they are master-coders  

of course that is only FUD.

Some people here are clearly against freedom of choice. It only expose their true nature.

Well the only reason it was discovered is because it's open source. Clearly this is a much bigger change than blocksize limit, so they were definitely sneaking it in by not openly informing people about this.

This is the code pulled directly from the current BitcoinXT release. Anyone who cares about Bitcoin will be shocked at this. Tens of thousands of lines of code which have the ability to completely centralize Bitcoin https://drive.google.com/open?id=0ByLnBVYGlyDsT25MNExSUDB2NTA

Stop your FUD already. Only retards would believe you at this point

[LiteCoinGuy]

So you're saying I wrote tens of thousands of lines of code to make this up?  

It's still in the github for BitcoinXT, read it and weep https://github.com/bitcoinxt/bitcoinxt/commit/73c9efe74c5cc8faea9c2b2c785a2f5b68aa4c23

you dont like choices do you   ?

people are free to use XT or Core. i only see you here spreading FUD about XT all day. why?

until now we have 13% of all nodes XT within 4 days. that is a vote. please email the core devs and ask for change.

That is NOT a vote! Most of the nodes are clearly virtual servers from amazon, digital ocean, etc., probably free. They're being opened by people like you who think that makes XT look more legitimate.

I will NEVER support any sort of Bitcoin blacklist, that is removing the freedom of choice for all Bitcoin users.

You sir are the one who doesn't like choice, if you support this code. If XT was honest they would have openly informed everyone about this, they didn't.

"virtual servers from amazon"

Proof   ?


"I will NEVER support any sort of Bitcoin blacklist"

Me too! iam glad XT isnt doing this  


i support bigger blocks.

[manselr]

Like many others, I'd love to see the block size go to 8MB soon.  But Mike Hearn is trying to sneak his very much hated blacklist code in there at the same time.  If XT were about blocksize only, I'd jump on it.  However, now that it has been shown to carry a sweet little hidden blacklist module - I will never trust anything from Mike Hearn ever again.  That is shocking BS and serious dirty business.  Hearn, Gavin and anyone who touches that strategy is fundamentally corrupt.  

XT is dead.  Hearn is dead.  That game is OVER.  

Noone sneaked shit... But nice try to repeat the FUD

Lol do they pay you to shill XT? Yes they did sneak shit:

Also look at the links above, it's obvious what's going on now. I can't personally never and I say never accept that on the Bitcoin code.

[steeev]

not surprising to see hearn's name associated with shadiness is it ?

and to think, some people call amir taaki dodgy...

and with the talk of XT node numbers being, err, 'enhanced', by whoever... best to go conservative and stick with core - maybe a different approach by someone else would make me switch, but this guy ?

no thanks, mike.

in the end it's a question of principles...


also, i wonder what his mate gavin is going to say to distance himself from the fallout ?

[FallOut1996]

In my Opionion he's dead too,
such a Wanker.

I will always support bigger blocks too, just like you guys


Never stop learning, I'm just startin in this topic, so i can't give a more valuable opinion.

[not altcoin hitler]

LiteCoinGuy is cancer
