well, it qualifies for that. Political realism has in fact denounced the BIP, however.

We will see what will happen when the blocks are consistently full, the tides might change. To be clear my position is that I would support a third alternative implementation that increases the blocksize especially if it represents a middle ground between these two extreme positions. I would even support Core again if they increased the blocksize, I have said this from the very beginning.

The only thing that will happen after the blocks fill up is a small increase in fees.

This is incorrect, how much of an increase in fees will happen depends on the level of adoption, if there is a huge spike in adoption then fees would become prohibitively expensive. I have already explained in the OP that transactions would also effectively be rendered unreliable. This would most likely conversely lead to decreased adoption and hurt the public perception of Bitcoin. This is the scenario that I would want to avoid by increasing the blocksize before a potential spike in adoption happens.

couldnt we just merge mine Bitcoin with something like Namecoin and then force namecoin to handle the smaller dust transactions?

thought about using it a while ago, but it seems that time has come. So whats up with the core devs? Beeing short over night i made a few coins so is it the right decision to transfer some to the XT client?

Heard about DDos attacks and censurship. Thats not the way we all wanted BTC to go. So if the Core Devs go this way i ll guess they had to go it alone  Grin

One question about the 3 possibole alternitves to keep my BTC (and thats what they are coz they are mine, no need to argue dear devs)...

Sud i use XT or classic or unlimited ?

Thx in advance for some good answers

Use whatever you want.  Looks like you already support XT anyway.  Run your node and campaign for others to do the same.

Good luck.

Use whatever client you support the most yourself, just like tokeweed said. My personal favorite implementation now is Bitcoin Unlimited, however I also support Bitcoin Classic, since Bitcoin Unlimited is also compatible with the two megabyte increase proposal by Classic. Much has changed since I wrote the OP, it has obvously become somewhat outdated. Check out my more recent posts here on bitcointalk and especially on bitco.in. I will also be writing another article soon relating to the blocksize debate and its more recent manifestations.

Didn't you recently say on bitco.in that you had lost all hope for bitcoin? Maybe you should sell your coins and leave.

First post that I have made in weeks, and you say that I am advertising for BU everywhere?

This is an old thread, and yes I have lost much hope for Bitcoin, it is not over yet though, still waiting to see how it all plays out. I will continue holding BTC, along with a multitude of alternative cryptocurrencies, so I am sufficiently hedged if Bitcoin chooses not to scale. It will simply be overtaken by alternative cryptocurrencies that can scale directly. The origanol vision of Satoshi will survive in the alternative cryptocurrencies regardless of what happens to Bitcoin.

Pretty much the only thing they say in this (BU) thread. I thought you had disproved that already?

ed. with great effort of research it would appear, to answer comments made on a whim.
