in case you don't remember here is the twitter games Wang Chun of F2Pool played during the Litecoin SegWit activation.

F2Pool has clearly been supporting NYA agreement also known as SegWit2x with their coinbase text
Code:
F/NYA/,mmX刔f㹭9,kۖT&J🐟Mined by andjeloketh	

but for some reason their block versions are still 0x20000002 instead of being 0x20000012 to indicate both.

I couldn't find anything on his twitter though. I don't know how else they announce stuff like this. is this just trolling or did they forget how to signal Cheesy
if anyone has more information on this please share here.

on another note it doesn't seem to matter! according to stats currently there is 80% support without F2Pool!!! and in the end it won't matter because they ARE signaling for SegWit with bit 1, even if they don't change anything and BIP91 activates everything is still fine.

F2Pool finally decided to start signaling the correct version for BIP91
https://blockchain.info/block-height/476718

was this just laziness to push the patch up to their servers or were they just waiting to see what percentages does this gain? or was it more going on behind the scenes?

and by the way with this new big change, there is no doubt for activation now. #tothemoon
