With Consensus reached wouldn't it be time we get above the $500 mark this week?

Consensus is reached every new block since 2009.

I guess it depends on what you mean by "consensus."

I was talking about this consensus. Maybe i don't read enough but isn't this the thing that gets everything back on track into 1 camp again?

BTC price is going strong still despite of the sell orders that was triggered when it hit the $450 mark. Lets all hope that there'll be a new floor brought to us by the 'consensus'.

The title is slightly misleading talking about miners, but the article is clear enough - developers and pools representing a majority of miners have agreed a roadmap. They've got consensus in as much as they've agreed the roadmap. But it's not until that roadmap is complete, and miners* can be seen to clearly support a hard-fork that consensus in the Bitcoin-protocol sense occurs.

* and nodes? I used to be a miner, long ago, but never really paid much attention to nodes.

Well, if you feel that a bunch of pool owners meeting behind closed doors with Core reps & signing a stump speech document makes for consensus, I guess it's moon time Edit:
Please read the thing that was signed, and examine each item on the list.
Even if we construe this as a legally binding document, what, other than "[limit won't be more than] 4MB," did Core commit to? What did the miners?

Because unsigned non-violent non-aggressive non-contracts have proven themselves to be 100% effective throughout history. With Bitcoin in particular.

We've been getting full blocks all day.  Armstrong may be right that a HF in 2017 is too little too late.

imo that is #incompetence ...

I think I know why satoshi decided to be out of the game: that photograph is so scary  
Damn..... This is getting so lame

wheres brg444 when you need him

full blocks != end of the world

if we actually start filling 4MB blocks completely full by 2017

how high is price going to be?

 

yeah but... bitcoin doesnt have 4MB blocks. #incompetence

Totally. If I hadn’t needed to use Bitcoin for my online drugs business I would never have got involved with you toxic lot.

i think this weekends pump causing the blocks to fill up proves that bitcoin is without a doubt #paralyzed... and i'm going to laugh at it! .. that is some funny shiat! without the ability to scale bitcoin cant win. lol. too funny.... i doubt bitcoin can withstand much more pumping without completely freezing up . that really is hilarious.. #GimpedCoin
