There are several different types of Bitcoin clients. The most secure are full nodes like Bitcoin Core, but full nodes are more resource-heavy, and they must do a lengthy initial syncing process. As a result, lightweight clients with somewhat less security are commonly used.

theymos is right. If you want to comment the future of XT altcoin you should NOT do it on BTC threads. Open XT altcoin discussion and say whatever you want to say. Nobody will delete your threads.

There have been deleted posts warning people of potential loss too. Then not long afterward there was a lot of loss. I'm not naming names. The management of this forum does not seem to have the best interest of bitcoin in mind. You can spin your opinions, but you can't change fact. There will be a change of governance in the favor of the best suited to do so. There is no bitcoinxt. There is only a different method of governance.

Have you sold your bitcoins at the bottom? That was the time when those warnings appeared!

That which we call a rose By any other name would smell as sweet.”

Raising block size has nothing to do with XT. You can stop the propaganda lies now. There's no such thing as centralized Bitcoin development. Anyone is allowed to create any changes they want and have miners vote for it.

Anyone is allowed to create any changes they want and have miners vote for it. Hear hear. What is happening now was always going to happen at some point. A fundamental weakness of bitcoin is the reliance on a few human programmers responsible for maintaining the reference client software run by the majority of the network. If a small cabal of people believe they can dictate the direction of bitcoin then as they are finding out to their chagrin the market will sidestep around them. Bitcoin development has never been so exciting - BU, XT, BTCD, bitpay Core variant and now bitcoin classic. This is what open source is all about. The market will decide and if the market doesn't like 1mb blocks, over complicated soft forks, a fee market and RBF then bitcoin will simply follow another reference client and fork away. I can see the value proposition of bitcoin massively rising if that happens (no doubt significant volatility during the run up to a fork!) as it proves that the project cannot be coopted or changed by a few men - no matter their motivations - or indeed the outcome, whether it be continuing with Core or another team(s) instead. EDIT: becoin you sound utterly preposterous trying to label other implementations of bitcoin clients mentioned above 'alt coins'. Such dishonesty simply marks you out as an unreasonable thoughtless drone.

@inca: Did you know that "it is not just the [disgusting cockroach] body that can survive decapitation; the lonely head can thrive, too, waving its antennae back and forth* for several hours until it runs out of steam, Kunkel says. If given nutrients and refrigerated, a roach head can last even longer."-- http://www.scientificamerican.com/article/fact-or-fiction-cockroach-can-live-without-head/ What's it like, finding a kindred spirit in a scurrying household pest?
*If you can call it thriving...

Well, development is about developing new solutions to problems. Not about arguing whether a particular variable should be set at X or Y value. If that's "development" then 1000 versions could spring up each one having their own proposal for that particular variable (max block size). How would that improve anything? That's not development. In the end of the day the only people making work that will actually help bitcoin scale more => are core devs.
