[2015-12-27] Bitcoin XT Discussion: “Have Wallets Refuse To Send To Known-Non-Co

[jdebunt]

Trouble is brewing in the world of Bitcoin and digital currencies now that wallet provider and exchange platform Coinbase started running the Bitcoin XT client as part of their production servers. As many of you are well aware, Bitcoin XT is considered a fork of Bitcoin Core and was launched to address the upcoming block size debate issue. Another discussion has spawned forth from this decision, even though it was announced weeks ago.

Awesome. I hope BIP101 is activating soon.

I'm a prophet. I knew a hard fork was coming when I created my account, near 2 years ago.

Yet another drama-story about BitcoinXT, the protocol that "has a lot of support" at 8.8% of all nodes. Yeah, right. Don't believe me? Check the pie graphs at xtnodes.com to verify. Coinbase can do what they want, but if they think breaking fungibility is a good business model - I have a bridge in New York to sell them.
