Will It Take a Crisis to Find Consensus in the Bitcoin Block Size Debate?
Although there seems to have been a small bit of progress in finding consensus on the block size issue in Bitcoin, the reality is that there still isn’t a formal plan for altering the block size limit in Bitcoin Core at any point in the near future.

Consensus is building, if you had bothered to follow any recent events.

Just because two twats offer up a "fork now or everything is naught" kind of tactic, doesn't mean that people can't decide for themselves. The growing consensus is closer to 4MB - 8MB, and depending on how the relevant BIPs (Bitcoin Improvement Proposals) fare, we'll see this integrated into the core client in due time.

We're not hitting any real transaction limits anyway, so the whole mega-drama about how we need it RIGHT NOW is a bit overstated.
