Erik Voorhees: Two Moves Could End the Bitcoin Civil War

Over the past few months, the feud among bitcoin enthusiasts and developers in the community have reached its peak. Bitcoin Core attempts to relieve the tension of the community by engaging in various developments and initiatives to develop a friendlier environment for the network to scale.
Bitcoin Core has made significant progress over the past few weeks in creating a more viable atmosphere to communicate with the bitcoin community.

Core has successfully completed the launch of BitcoinCore.org to introduce updates of Bitcoin Core, the adoption rate of Bitcoin Improvement Proposals with a list of companies and their progress in integrating mechanisms such as Segregated Witness, which was proposed by Pieter Wuille at the Hong Kong Scaling Workshop in December, 2015. Core has also created a Twitter account to provide an official feed of Bitcoin Core and has set up a Slack chat group for bitcoin enthusiasts to arrange a variety of discussions.

To maintain the momentum of Core’s improvement on communicating with the community, Shapeshift CEO Erik Voorhees has suggested two proposals which could end the civil war between Bitcoin developers and the community.

The Core team have made huge strides in improving the communication with all role-players. They created a platform to provide detailed information to the uninformed / non-technical people in the easiest possible form and they also created a platform for the more technical users and developers.

The Twitter feeds gives updated feedback to both groups in the social media and they can concentrate on the development. These guys are not attention whores, like some of the other developers we have had before, who just want media exposure.

They get into the engine room and they spend their time developing the best solution for the technology. That is what we expect of them, and then once that is done, they report back on the results. Stop attacking them, and let them concentrate on what is more important. <The Code>

Communication from the core team is good. But they also need to push a solution to the bitcoin block size increase soon.
