What have bigblockers done to manipulate anyone?  I just asked a question and provided a link. I made it clear I don't know any more than that. I feel very frustrated in fact that while I am limited by ethics in what i can do to persuade people, smallblockers apparently are not.

Bitcoin Core 0.12 is officially released. I'm glad I can now ban the few 'classic' nodes that try to promote bitcoin altcoin fork.

Core is so concerned about node dropoff that they now want to ban any node not running their code. Makes sense.

Cause you're probably are. And the worse is that I'm not sure there is a "good" side...

What? It's like the exact opposite of a consensus attitude!!!
IMHO it would be a good reason to turn to classic...

FUDing all day long about "full blocks"?

[billyjoeallen]

Has anyone seen ANY tweets or statements by Core bigshots in support of this miner agreement?  I haven't seen any and I've been looking. I think it's strange because the agreement would doom Classic if ratified.

I suspect the whole damn thing was just another delaying tactic, something we should have come to expect by now from BS et al.

As in ChartBuddy posting how full the blocks are?

We've had more transactions in the last month than at anytime in history. Yes, blocks are full.  Maybe not to the point that nothing can move (yet) but to the point where it is becoming impractical and cost-prohibitive to mix coins and maintain anonymity.

As in bigblockers pretending the fullblockalypse is coming when you can get a tx included in <10 blocks for 1 cent, and in one block with 5 cents.

We've had more transactions in the last month than at anytime in history. Yes, blocks are full.  Maybe not to the point that nothing can move (yet) but to the point where it is becoming impractical and cost-prohibitive to mix coins and maintain anonymity.

1c to 5c fees are by no means cost-prohibitive (they are near zero cost) and also very practical.

Then why hasn't Core publicly denounced the consensus?

Some devs have, but nobody important.

EDIT: Peter Todd doesn't like it because he thinks SW ought to be a hard fork. I actually kind of agree with him on that.

Well, a number of the actual signatures in that document are followed by the words "Bitcoin Core Contributor", FWIW.

I don't know if any of them qualify as "Core bigshots".

How many times do you have to pay that nickle to thoroughly mix $10,000?   Next month it will be a dime. and then a quarter.  The point is you pay NOTHING using dash or monero.  Our first mover advantage is slipping.
