Coinbase CEO Says Doubling Block Size Every 2 Years Won’t Hurt Decentralization
Moore’s Law and its corollaries indicate that the bitcoin block size could be doubled every two years without affecting decentralization of the network, according to Brian Armstrong, the CEO of Coinbase.
Armstrong has become the target of vitriol and apparently censorship from some in the bitcoin community who are opposed to block size increases.
He tweeted in late December 2015 that Coinbase was running Bitcoin XT, the controversial implementation of the Bitcoin code, as an experiment.
Coinbase is now running BitcoinXT (BIP101) in production as an experiment, blog post w more details coming soon
