The average non technical user just wants bitcoin to work, and work well.  We believe in the technology and in the expertise of those who invented it and continue to develop it.  But we may not have the technical knowledge to give an in-depth explanation as to weather we want 2mb blocks or 8mb blocks, or for things to stay as they are.

but as i said we just want it to work and everyone arguing over the details is not working......  Yes i understand that people have differences of opinion on the way forward, but everyone lets not destroy this one chance to make a massive difference in the world....

I agree with the sentiment. Just stop the quibbling over minor details and get the shit working smoothly.

Sick and tired of listening to it already.

I was just looking at the transaction growth as a function of time and it's almost looking more like an exponential fit than linear. Though, I haven't played with any best fit lines.

Regardless, it's obvious that a lot of people have a lot invested in all of this. This is how it should be with a currency. They sustain absolutely every transaction in society. It needs to be right. It would be nice if people were this interested in the primary currency they use like the dollar. Likewise, they have a lot invested in it.

Don't worry! If the Bitcoin Classic coup is successful, and bitcoin as we know it is destroyed, there are more than a dozen other digital currencies ready to take its place. Each new entrant will learn from the mistakes of its predecessor, thereby allowing/encouraging these new and emerging currencies to innovate and evolve.

In many governments, there is a healthy separation between church and state. In cryptocurrency, we need separation between development and third-party businesses. If you look at the current problems facing core, the main issues are conflicts of interest which hamper benevolent decision making.

If core moves to 2MB blocks, then the need for Blockstream's lightning network diminishes. By keeping the blocksize at 1MB, then the need for Blockstream increases. So this mother of all business conflicts threatens to undermine the entire bitcoin economy.

Will Core do the right thing, or will they watch as the entire bitcoin economy goes up in smoke? Only time will tell.

You don't necessarily have to be technical to participate in discussions or simply ask questions. Most of the disagreements usually boil down to different visions or principles, so something that even non-tech users can have opinion on.

No, my friend. We want much more than that.

BTC is working quite well right now, but to feel confident towards the future, we need to be sure that BTC can scale. If we look at social networks, snapchat or instagram, those services have seen their users grow exponentially, millions new people, in only a few weeks. BTC is very, very small at this time. Barely 200,000 transactions per day. What would happen if this jumps to one million each day? Imagine 1% of all Facebook users doing one BTC transaction every day? The network couldn't handle it.

The fact that BTC works today hardly matters, if it's going to fail tomorrow.

I used to be a citizen and a taxpayer. Those days are long gone.

I dont think there is any "average users" of bitcoin who are only interested to spend bitcoin.Bitcoin is still seen by all its users as long term or short term investment.Unlike fiat,bitcoin users are more cautious when it comes to spending

I am just an average user of Bitcoin. I may not know every intricate thing about the crypto currency but I expect my transactions at the coffee shop to confirm in under 10 minutes.

Not like this. The coffee shops don't require one confirmation. Once you send the money, you will get the products right away.

When will people start to realize that you don't need confirmations for small purchases like this? Once it is transmitted it is enough for a couple dollar purchase to be accepted by the shop.

No one will make you wait for 10 minutes. If you need to wait, it will be for bigger purchases, and than you are prepared for it and willing to wait anyway.

Well, all the non-technical people do find it very hard to understand the core development activities in Bitcoin Core. I myself am one of them, but to be honest it doesn't mean that there isn't an effort made to understand the concept behind it and how it functions.

For the millionth time, answer: then why are you here?

If all these people and their opinions don't matter, then why do you spend all day and all night, every day, trying to convince them that your bullshit tastes good in a sandwich?

btc is a property of "all user", and in the same time everyone could take "a part" of it.
mike words doesn't have impact, therefore they have an impact only in him coins, that probably he sell (and how we can trust that he sell all / buy again?)
I think this could be another marketing move to improve "stake" and buy more coins Wink
