No, the halving doesn't have anything to do with this. Halving will be happening around june. This just means the Classic thing failed to fail consensus, apparently people started using their brain and understood how forcing a hard fork to get some increment in block size that can be achieved without hard forking thanks to seg wit is just a stupid idea, as stupid as firing the people that has been behind Bitcoin for 7+ years (core devs). So thank good we are sticking with Core. Price should keep going up now that people is catching up with the situation and FUD is fading away.

No this isn't related to the halving, it's about Bitcoin core having a hard fork and OP is assuming that the Hard fork isn't going to happen since Chinese Bitcoin miners have agreed to stick to Bitcoin core. There are lots of tweets about this, but I'm waiting for a statement from the miners themselves.

I hope that we can stick to core. I don't want to pause mining and selling if I don't have to for this mess. I just got so scared for the longeat time when the fork
talk came out and Hearn scared me too. I am glad the shitstorms are cooling down.

The loudest voices calling for block increases usually come from places like reddit, where lots of impressionable people gather to think they are "doing something" for Bitcoin. In the end, it is all just noise.
Bitcoin is fine, and still young. All these problems and challenges should be met with a clear head and lots of thought.

We will just have to see how it unfolds. It will be interesting, regardless.

That is true. On reddit they're always coming in swarms and cry for their bigger blocks and that classic will be the game changer. Lots of noise and it becomes less and less interesting reading over there. Core is having the most talented devs who have contributed code for 7+ years. Furthermore there is a roadmap for scaling out.So I don't understand what these yelling was done for. I guess it is a political reason.

That, and they don't realize they are being herded like cattle into spaces like that to suit the needs of their opponents. They even fight amongst themselves in the various cliques.

It seems very obvious to me what they are trying to do. They first create a fictional problem (block size is too small) then they offer solutions (XT then Classic). This is the same classic technique that they have been using to obtain control over anything that would defy the status quo.

I cannot understand the urgency. There are many problems with the Bitcoin codebase that need to be addressed, this is merely one. There certainly have to be solutions that don't involve fracturing an entire ecosystem.

From what I've read from the people on reddit, I imagine guys in their late teens or early 20's who still live at home with their parents and have a measly stash of bitcoin, some probably not even 1 bitcoin.
The whole place over there just reeks of unprofessional kids with shitty jobs.

I'd be lying if I don't find their posturing amusing though. They cry about censorship and feed off drama, meanwhile r/buttcoin makes them look like fools.
