Good morning Bitcoinland. Here we go again. Stuck at $430. Isn't it just about time for the next leg up? To me it seems it's only a matter of time before we get there, where we should actually be. I expect everything if we get to 450 which would be a very good base to start rising again

You miss the point.
How come nobody ever says, "I failed to make my point correctly"?

$426 - Yawn. I want to see some proper price movement. Haven't seen any significant upswings for what seems like a long time now.
Always remember: http://www.bitcoinblockhalf.com/Moves will come.

I saw we touch $420 on 4/20 and then a rise to $450
What's this obsession with Hitlers birthday? How does it relate to Btcoin? maybe because some ppl are thinking Bitcoin is coming from the dark? all the old Bitcoin stuff websites were black and and we were afraid to browse these sites on work because colleagues could think it's some sort of porno. I saw we touch $420 on 4/20 and then a rise to $666
i think 420 has something todo with cannabis stuff tho Ok, let's hope the unholy trinity of Bitcoin, Drugs and Hitler will send this mofo to the moon then. hitler was a heavy polytoxicomanic junkie. needed meth and eukodal (oxycodone) and cocain among other fancy stuff. the wehrmacht was put on chrystal meth to invent the blitzkrieg. before they invaded france, the wehrmacht got 30 million doses of meth. and on meth they defeated france and english troops within 9 days. sry for ot.

It seems that Bitcoin is going to be quite a bit stronger after this particular fight. I recall several months ago, possibly in July or August 2015 when the various XT and Classic proponents were initially setting forth various blocksize limit increase proposals, that were really coups in disquise of some supposed necessary technical fix. Some of us were likely caught off guard by the initial proposals because on their face they seemed "reasonable." In some sense, we are lucky that many of the pushers of this XT/Classic agenda were not crafty enough to tricking various core developers or miners into believing that either the unnecessary technical fix was needed or that a change in Bitcoin's governance would be a good thing. Likely core supporters and a variety of other folks in the community are more aware now of some of these kinds of coup potentials (which are likely to be attempted again... but maybe enough awareness has been raised to show coup attempts for the phoniness of what they are - which seem to be attempts to undermine bitcoin and to cause it to be easily malleable - which would have taken away from bitcoin's main contributory feature, and that is censorship resistance.......). GO BITCOIN... and to the moon!!!!!!

What is it? They are testing big blocks in another chain or simulator, or what?

What is it? They are testing big blocks in another chain or simulator, or what? this is a testnet for segwit. before a release to public or on the mainnet Core is testing all the improvements.

Do you know how much of it is witness data and how relevant this would be to the kind of usage patterns we have today? Are these kinds of segwit block sizes perhaps more relevant for when LN is launched?

Are these kinds of segwit block sizes perhaps more relevant for when LN is launched? LN is an other story because it is off-chain. just the start and the end is manifested in the blockchain. the other whole lifecycle of certain LN activities does not affect the blockchain. SegWit is a speration of data from the blockchain which is not immediate necessary for txs. and because of this you can see blocks of 3.6 MB. the data which is necessary is stored in the blockchain and the other data is seperated. for example in sum you have data of 3.6 MB but the necessary data which is stored in the block is just 0.9 MB. EDIT: I cannot see the exact amount of data which is stored in the block and the exact amout of data whic is excluded from the block https://segnet.smartbit.com.au/block/00000072e17929d0d4c1a8f3e5f59c4fc10dd4d32861a40da855d55309a97562

The reason I ask is that, as I understood, the ins and outs of the LN streams are some of the few txs which would use that much witness data. In any event I'm guessing these tests will be used to block any notion of a maxblocksize hf as it's pretty close to the 4mb total they agreed upon with the miners earlier this year. It will be interesting to see what LN does to centralization over the coming years. I hope it's not the beginning of the end.

Don't let your woeful misunderstandings stop you from having an opinion on anything and everything bitcoin scaling. Keep speculating yourself into the stupid house.

I hope it's not the beginning of the end. i guess as soon segwit is activated and LN nodes occur we will see stress tests to attack the mainnet. then we know what for a amout of txs (on-chain and off-chain) is possible with 1MB+SegWit+LN. imagine if we will come to a consensus to reduce the blocksize to 0.5 MB in 2017/2018 because of fees are to low.
