I ran Bitcoin Core for >3 years, and I turned it off today

I am now running Bitcoin**Censored**

Bitcoin censored?? Did you mean Bitcoin XT?
Anyone can tell me what is the % of current nodes to see where we are at today in terms of adoption? I want to know who is winning this exciting battle.

You can always view the current node count for Bitcoin XT here.



There is a small increase in August, however nothing significant. Bitcoin Core is winning by far.

Why today in particular? But then again, I'm seeing this:"This user's password was reset recently.".

Okay, I don't know all the background.  What are you guys talking about with "censored"?  Can someone at least drop a link to further information about this?

Theymos regards it as an alt. Discussions on r/Bitcoin have been deleted. Discussion here is being moved to the alt section.

https://www.reddit.com/r/Bitcoin/comments/3gdad5/meta_on_hardforking_if_bitcoin_is_so_vulnerable/

I don't think all that many other people agree with that stance.

I already see the problem now. Censorship. Idk why but if we cannot talk about *toot* in here, how can we actively discuss about the future things we can do to solve things? Also, I see no reason to censor *toot* on the subreddit. A healthy debate between which is superior to which is great, because it involves the thought of the community, not only those who are in control. Just a thought.

Well, good for you. I don't think any sane brain would switch from the greatest technology to a random fork/altcoin.

It's not an altcoin, it uses Bitcoin's existing blockchain and will continue to do so until a majority of miners and nodes are running the new code.  The fork only happens when consensus is reached.  It's not "random" and several mining pools are pushing for 8mb blocks.  Might not be the best idea to question their sanity, I'm pretty sure they understand the situation better than you do.

Well, good for you. I don't think any sane brain would switch from the greatest technology to a random fork/altcoin.

I don't think it should be called an altcoin because it is still based from the existing bitcoin code, just added some few codes on it to enlarge the block size limit to 8mb. It's been around for months now and the discussions are happening here and there. Many big pools are pushing for it too, and I don't see it happening to a random fork/altcoin yet.

Does it mean you switched your nodes just to fuck censorship? Are you not afraid of Bitcoin being fucked instead (ever considered implications)?

It's technically an alt-coin as long as its using the main chain of Bitcoin until it gets consensus status
That said your right that it's more along the lines of a Bitcoin-related fork in my opinion but a new section for Bitcoin-XT was not made so guess Theymos had no choice but to regulate to alt-coins or see a wall of this discussion in Bitcoin.
