http://xtnodes.com/ classic crashed and burned already ... oh well should be good for everybody.

Quests of futility can be character building and educational for those less fortunate in the mettle and brains departments.

Second most used wallet, after just being released (is it officially released yet?) does not sound like "crashed and burned".

It's a Beta 2 release with binaries but still without mining support. So, no. It's not released yet.

No, it doesn't.

Are you afraid?

Unfortunately classic is not quite dead yet.

When it is and the threat of chaotic, contentious and unnecessary (segwit is superior) hard fork is over, we can all look forward to a massive price increase (like move from 230->450 after xt collapse) and bitcoin moving forward.

These bombing runs from Gavin and coinbase are getting tiring.

I doubt they will be able to centralise bitcoin development under their control.

I admire your willingness to stick the script after being so thoroughly undressed and smacked down in this thread. Kudos.

Why unfortunately? Isn't it always good to have different possibilities? you never know what might happen

I personnally support all the coins! Classic, Core, Litecoin...

It's precisely because Bitcoin Classic isn't an alt they all go mental.

No its because I want bitcoin development lead by people who:

 value decetralisation, provide features like confidential transactions etc.

as opposed to people who:

visit cia, join organisations that want to work with government to police bitcoin, float ideas like blacklists of transactions, and do not care about ordinary node users etc.


I don't want bitcoin to be crippled by these people into paypal 2.0 (except slower)

What you said doesn't negate what I said. It reinforces it.

You know when an army is truly defeated? Not when its frontline Shtrafbats get slaughtered, that sort of thing's to be expected, plenty more grist where that came from; a battle is not the war.

But when the generals turn on each other and start slapfighting. With spittle, potty words and hair-pulling!
Ain't no recovering from that...

[Dotto]

Volume is kind of zombie. Anybody care of speculate when there will be some action? It seems there is a big triangle closing on 14 feb. Just for pure intuition based on nothing more I would say a dump is coming sometime before St Valentines

[Elwar]

It is only because of politics that people will not like Classic.

Classic is just Core with at 2mb block size limit.

As long as that statement is true I will support it. I supported XT also until Hearn added blacklisting code to it.

Core with at 2mb instead of 1mb limit is a good idea. That's just math/logic. Not politics.

I will be sure to upgrade my node (yes, I still actually run a full node) when it is fully released (as long as there are no other changes snuck in!).

[bargainbin]

^^^Yes, but...

... It seems there is a big triangle closing on 14 feb. ...

Thou art wearied in the multitude of thy counsels. Let now the astrologers, the stargazers, the monthly prognosticators, stand up, and save thee from these things that shall come upon thee.

I have an idea!

Still no price rally that we've been waiting for bitcoin. We need whales now to invest further into bitcoin or else it will still be at this price few weeks away from halving.

I Don't care for the price staying the same. It can even be a good thing.

I prefer stable price over an incredible overrated price then a hell of a dump just after or before the halving man!

It is only because of politics that people will not like Classic.

Classic is just Core with at 2mb block size limit.

Classic is building off the 0.11.2 branch which is soon to be outdated with 0.12.0 coming out of RC. There are many significant improvements with 0.12.0 that you will be forgoing(It is unlikely that Classic will switch over to 0.12.0 within the next 2 months) . Classic only has 2 experienced developers maintaining it where Core has 45.

Segwit and classic have practically similar capacity upgrades, with segwit allowing for better longterm scaling by fixing tx malleability(something that is required for payment channels to progress) .

Logically, supporting Classic doesn't make much sense.
