Well it is hard to be answered, segwit is solution for bitcoin's problem but right now it becomes problem for bitcoins
because of many people are dissagree with segwit especially the miners from China although the segwit will be activated
it needs much time and hard discussion for activation of it.
But if still there are no solution for activation the segwit must there are other ways fixing bitcoin's problem except segwit.

HARDFORK..? I would prefer to go with segwit than HARDFORK. We all know that it is not an easy task to integrate and activate segwit in the blockchain and we don't have any better solution also and the situations getting worse day by day as the delay in transactions getting more and people are forced to pay more fees..

Bitcoin Unlimited is losing support rather quickly, albeit no one is entirely sure why this is the case. A few weeks ago, Bitcoin Unlimited support was on par to surpass SegWit numbers, yet that trend did not materialize in the end. In fact, the support has dropped from nearly 23% to 16.7%, indicating miners are slowly backing off from pools supporting Unlimited.
Yeah bitcoin unlimited support has decreased drastically compared to the days when segwit was under consideration. Now once again the current scenario describes that segwit is gaining power. Personally if segwit gets in right now we may get a chance of increase in price even before the ETF.

Hmm, you must have went to the same school as densuj.
Neither of you seem to able to read a chart.  Tongue

Hmm,  https://coin.dance/blocks

24.3% of the mined blocks today (144 Blocks) support BTC unlimited.

19.5% supported it for this Last week. (1000 Blocks)

You might want to brush up on your chart reading skillz, because your analysis is wrong.  Wink


 Cool





FYI:
Where I come from 24.3% is higher than 23%, from what reality do you come from that this is not the same.
Cheesy


FYI:
For the Mathematically Challenged like  densuj & ASHLIUSZ .
These were the old Number, BU has increased since it was created.  Smiley

8 MB Blocks                   7.5% =>   100%- 7.5% =  92.5%   SEGWIT FAIL
or
Bitcoin Unlimited          18.3% =>   100%-18.3% =  81.7%   SEGWIT FAIL

Combined                    25.8%  =>   100%-25.8% = 74.2%   SEGWIT FAIL


Segwit has failed, Game Over it will never reach 95%.


FYI2:
You wold think segwit supporters would have enough math skills to comprehend that even if Segwit receive all of the non-voting miners support,
that they would still NEVER have enough to reach 95%, it is like the segwit supporters are Stupid beyond reasoning.
Maybe if they ask a 1st grader to explain it to them , they might understand segwit is dead.

Segwit is dead, that statement is unclear since we do not know it until all miners leave segwit behind. But as long as there are segwit supporters segwit will continue to function. But in my own opinion Segwit supporters should just give up since segwit cannot really be accepted by the majority of miners but by a small number or miners only.

Hmm,

Are you one of those frighten little girls afraid to hard fork?

An HF to increase blocksize could fix the transactions issue immediately.

Segwit is Dead, the miners are not changing their Minds.

 Cool

FYI:
Segwit is pathetic, you are looking at only ~1.7 to 2 megabyte blocksize and that is if everyone uses segwit addresses which they won't.
A Standard HardFork with a 2 Megabyte blocksize increase would lower the transaction fees immediately.
A Standard HardFork with a 4 Megabyte blocksize increase, and BTC transaction capacity would match LTC.

Segwit can never reach 95%, IE: DEAD, (it will never activate.)

So technically segwit is not functioning at all, since it has not yet been activated. Wink
Segwit is Dead.


 Cool
