I mine at Slush, and my simplistic understanding is that the "usual/default" port of 3333, that's been used for years, is the BIP100 port. If you want the BIP101 blocks, then you use a different port (3334 I think). This whole BIP101/XT thing has been a complete fiasco in my opinion.

I think a more accurate headline for this thread would have been "BIP101 struggles to get 10% acceptance".

Just my BTC.001 of a BIP100 block (I hope).  Smiley

They give their miners an option to vote for BIP101. Here's the announcement they made. Those that mine on the regular URLs mine regular blocks, meaning they don't take part on supporting a certain proposal.

If you want BTC.001 of a BIP100 block - then you can leave your vote here: http://bitcoinocracy.com/arguments/bip101-is-better-than-bip100 (just click "Doubt" and sign the message with bitcoin address that holds BTC.001).

I doubt that Bitcoin future should be decided by miners, I think all bitcoin users should have a vote.

you can leave your vote here: http://bitcoinocracy.com/ [...] I think all bitcoin users should have a vote.
There's two ways to interpret that site:
A. By signees - i.e. each 'vote' is counted as such.  Problem: I can send small funds to 1,000 addresses and cast 1,000 votes.
which is why instead they went with:
B. By amounts - i.e. if you signed with an address holding BTC10, then your vote will weigh 100x as heavily as somebody who signs with an address holding BTC0.1.  Problem: Cool, rich people influence votes more than the poor ( just like the real world Wink )

They acknowledge as much in their site description: "determine the truth backed by real monetary value".  So yes, you get 'a' vote, somebody poorer than you gets a lesser vote, and somebody richer than you gets a greater vote.  See also some of the other arguments at that site Smiley
