LOL ![Grin](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/grin.gif) (I still don't agree with your and Satoshi's dislike of Bitcoin data transactions, though. I still think that my old BitDNS idea, while flawed, would work better than Namecoin or a sidechain.)

Segregated witness has obliterated both BIP101 and XT. Cheers to the Core developers for actually providing a real solution. It can even be done with a soft fork.

Segwitness is awesome... and an actual advance in scalablity, not just a parameter twiddle that eats into the safety margin. In other news, this site is the new hottness on Reddit: http://bitcoinocracy.com/ ... actually, I'm a bit surprised that the 101 supporters had that many coins available without the industrial pro-XT crowd substantially dipping into customer funds (I assume we'll notice when that happens...).

Offtopic? Why does CryptoNote need to be mentioned here or the presentation? Segregated Witness is a really old concept that has been discussed in the Bitcoin community back in 2011 from Russel Oconnor.

Offtopic? Why does CryptoNote need to be mentioned here or the presentation? Because ... The original implementation of segregated witness was also CryptoNote coins, as I mention here. Wuille's presentation fails to credit this alternative cryptocurrency at all (as did the Elements sidechains presentations/implementation/notes). Ironically the second time a major Bitcoin soft fork has come from an alt.

You seem rather panicked? Are you panicking yet?

If the ideas didn't come from Cryptonote developers(In fact cryptonote developers took the ideas from the bitcoin community) and none of the code was borrowed or forked from Cryptonote than what is the point? It is quite possible that the blocksteam devs weren't even aware of Cryptonote seg witness and were simply carrying on with developing what was being discussed since 2011 in the bitcoin community. Even if the ideas were taken ... what is the point? This is open source... why are you bitter? Are you a cryptonote pumper? Shouldn't you be happy for bitcoin that Wuille and Luke-jr solved some major problems with bitcoin with an ingenious solution that has been discussed since 2011?

Are you panicking yet? Why? My prediction came true. The pressures of the marketplace force them to raise the block capacity. The business model of an artificial fee market (which you are cheerleading) is officially REKT anyway. The stalemate could go on for some months, but the market will enforce a decision. u/hugolp 2 points an hour ago
and a way to really annoy /u/mike_hearn with a really humungous soft fork.
Is this just a joke or would it really annoy him? If so why?
u/edmundedgar 3 points an hour ago
For a long time he's been making an argument - I think correctly FWIW - that hard forks should be preferred over soft forks. Soft forks are a nasty hack where old nodes are tricked into thinking they're validating transactions, but really they're not because the rules have changed in some way they're not aware of.
This is a huge monster soft fork where by old nodes are completely unaware that the signatures they need to validate even exist.

Don't bother with him.
Most of it is panick from the fact that once again Core prevails and him and his shitty crew is on the verge of being irrelevant (if we pretend they weren't already).
Ohh... I understand, he is bitter and lashing out because he didn't think blockstreem would develop better solutions than BIP 101. I hope he comes around and assumes that everyone has good faith whether they are Gavin or Wuille. This is really petty and we need to get beyond this for the sake of bitcoin.
