So what would happen with an unlimited blocksize? Serious question - what would miners do? Would they include all tx, fee or not? Would they set a minimum fee? Would they choose a blocksize cap on their own?

“My basic thesis was this: anyone who was dumb enough to think that they could make money reviewing television shows would pay $49 dollars for a training program,” said Hill. “And anyone who is that lazy will never complete the training program. So they’d just give up and I could sell a $2 dollar training program for $49.”
It worked: he made about $100,000 in three months. (At that point the crowd gave him an ovation... -snip-

The CEO of Blockstream has a history of scam artisty and his employees are a bunch of petulant man-children. It's no wonder a cult of personality has grown around Gavin. |

core is provoking a contentious hardfork with their silly behaviour. even if you are convinced that 2MB is unnecessary you should do it because the civilwar is much more dangerous than a hardfork.
Why should core provide a 2MB block size? Because users are too lazy to read the fucking manual on how fees work and act accordingly? Why should Core put a burden on the network maintainers in order to please the dumb users who can't be disturbed to learn about the fees? |

Miners would blindly include all tx's. Rasb Pi full node count would drop to 3. Big Gubmint would turn off the 3 nodes. Bitcoin ded. See, you're just being kept safe by people more technically inclined than yourself.  [Oh, seriously... the same thing that happened for the last 5 years, miners would use soft caps. If people don't trust miners to respond to economic incentives, yes, even tangential incentives... they shouldn't own any to begin with.] |

Cconvert2G36: I actually meant it when I said it was a serious question. For example, what risk would there be in a small miner willing to make any size block, several gigabytes or more maybe?

crazy how easy this whole mess could be solved, but core is not able to accept the HK-agreement
What mess? It is business as usual. Core devs are doing great job improving bitcoin immunity against all kind of attacks. Bitcoin is growing in a very healthy environment. Yes, it is the wild west but this is the way it should be. core is provoking a contentious hardfork with their silly behaviour. even if you are convinced that 2MB is unnecessary you should do it because the civilwar is much more dangerous than a hardfork. Indeed. |

It would become stale as all the other miners don't even bother validating it and build a chain of smaller blocks instead. To allay the fear, an anti DoS limit could be set just like today, but well above distorting the free market and miners production decisions. |

because of Brian Armstrong and Coinbase nah, dont think so. he says nothing new. imo its the stalled HK-consensus. after 2 weeks we still have no confirmation of core that they are willing to HF in 2017. |
