Some of the data on that site make little sense to me, however. I don't really understand how they are calculating average blocksize as compared with median blocksize, and why there would be a difference between those two concepts (except through their definition of such).
[blablablablablabla]
https://www.vocabulary.com/articles/chooseyourwords/mean-median-average/Hahahahahaha I will admit that I had a brain fart, and for a moment, I was considering mean and median as the same. So, O.k. I will agree that reviewing information about the median could be helpful to various analysis regarding whether there are block full problems and transaction time problems that are resulting from block fullness, and blockchain.info charts are providing the mean for blocksize, but so far, seem to not be providing the median. At least, I have not found it, so far. |

Any statistician will tell you the average is an awful stone age measure, then start talking about mean, median, and standard deviation to decide whether the blocks are truly full or not. However if you can't get your transaction into a block for hours even with a good fee that's all you need to know. |

There's nothing wrong with considering some anecdotal evidence (especially when considering personal experiences, and whether personal experiences are either representative, aberrational or something more mixed). There have been a lot of strong claims coming, so accordingly, I believe that looking at various charts (especially if we are able to verify accuracy - or to have some trust in accuracy) can also give some ideas about the potential strengths/weaknesses of various claims. |

I was reading some tweeters today... and it got me thinking. https://twitter.com/adam3us/status/717023841529114625As we can change the very way Bitcoin works (segwit) and more, via soft fork, including difficulty, with 4 chinese / 1 Georgian dudes' approval... Is there a way we they can soft fork the price a little higher?  Just "brain-storming" here guys... |

i have to reindex the entire blockchain today. a feature of bitcoin. re-index your bloatchain every few months... guess we see how long it takes. .. this should affect the price bigtime today. aztecminer has reload bloatchain causes bitcoin to crash to new lows.
See the bright side: If we had bigger blocks, you'd need more time  no one is using a full node for private bitcoin payments. either he seeks attention or he is retarded. clearly both and a shit writer |
