Didn't it get addressed since the old proposal before the recent 8 MB one, mand ?
I dunno. I can barely keep up with it all. China's expressed interest in 8mb blocks but not the doubling every two years that Gavin Andresen proposed. Here's a quote from the XT github 'Please note that Bitcoin XT does not currently change anything about block size limits, although a future version might.' Someone cleverer than me will be along to clarify eventually. |

The reason could be that the block size controversy now seems to be resolved.
Nah, I don't think it has been resolved... but how the price could be influenced by this thing (I can't understand at all...). That prolonged low quality debate has instilled doubt in the toe-dippers and bystanders. It was never catastrophic, but they wouldn't know. Now it seems to be resolved, the latest news being miners voting with their proverbial feet, the comments in the coinbase transactions. So I think it is resolved, by new year we have larger max blocks, and first quarter of next year we will have a large block, and minimal orphaning. |

This has has everything to do with China dropping the dollar peg. Currency wars (where every player tries to LOSE) are great for Bitcoin.

I follow the bitcoin-dev mailing list and no news of a resolution has been mentioned. |

It's maybe a way away from being resolved, but it is being addressed. Time for some serious mooning?  No, no first we need some trains! Like this one! It's perfect!   |

It should make people rush to bitcoin - but it hasn't, historically. I think it is the block size. |

this Ethereum pump will end with a bitcoin pump like the LTC bubble did some weeks ago.

It seems to me that OKCoin BTC and Litecoin in general are leading BTC higher.

Looks like we are setup for a stale few months. This is actually good news.
