Wow - the author wrote this this morning?  that is good going....

It is almost as if this article was sat there just waiting for the right time to release it to cause FUD...

No...some guy just wrote this earlier this morning.. honest... they really did


 

That is a blatant lie, it was released on June 26th. It says it plainly at the top of the article.

well reddit is unusually unpleasant at the mo but there's this

BLOCKSTREAM VOLCANO LAIR - Blockstream Core, masterminds behind SEGWIT, today released their reaction to SegWit's activation.

Blockstream CEO Adam Back said on hearing the news, "I am thrilled that our patented SegWit™ technology has been smoothly adopted. Our technology provides unprecedented business opportunities for the entire banking industry, possibly with some other fringe applications."

On the way back to NSA headquarters, Blockstream psyops engineer theymos gave a statement by phone, saying "As a long-time employee of BitMain, I am proud to have been even a small part of this grand achievement, brought to you by the great folks at the Bitcoin Foundation. While Goldman Sachs does not always get the best reputation, I think that our actions here have thoroughly proven that the Bilderberg Group is merely a normal, benevolent group of people."

Luke Dashjr, whose UASF support proved essential to SegWit's success, announced plans for a new, non-Bitcoin UASF which would softfork the decimal number system into Tonal, finally addressing the covert deciboost attack which has been ongoing for millennia.

Although his identity remains unknown, the Supreme Troll Army Commander was heard issuing a command to "execute order 141" to all troll army lieutenants.

"THE SCREAMS OF THE INNOCENT WILL ECHO THROUGH MY HALLS", said Blockstream CTO Greg Maxwell from his skull throne. He proceeded to carve "1MB" into a shrieking supplicant's flesh while laughing manically.

All in all, spirits are high and tensions low at Blockstream Core HQ, even despite the ominous timers which fill every wall, slowly but inexorably counting down to some unknown event which lead developer Wladimir will only describe as "an EARTH-SHATTERING surprise which only those who have experienced Bitcoin's TO-THE-MOON journey will be able to truly appreciate." I guess we'll just have to wait and see what's next for Bitcoin!

Whats happening on kraken again Ping Pong bouncing

[gentlemand]

So will Segwit's birth expose all the covert ASIC boosters out there or not?

[Dammitt]

For me now, it's important for me to stay on a Btc level, which is a good move for subcodes on this count. It will be great if you stay at a certain level. Because the higher the Btc, the worse it is for the subcool.

Tonight might be more of a historic moment then we all realize.

O.k.  I will bite.  How, newbie (possible troll)?  

Since the inception of bitcoin, whenever people asked, "So, how many transactions does bitcoin do per second?".
We all had to answer a number that was embarrassingly low, theoretically 7, but more like 3-4 TPS.

With segwit enabled, bitcoin is finally - ready for the world -.
As much of a cliche that may sound, we went from 7 TPS to potentially unlimited TPS, all safe and sound.
This means it's really no 'joke' anymore. That's what I mean by historic, the activating of segwit might be known as THE enabler for bitcoin.
Or like some other people call it, the netscape navigator moment for bitcoin.

On the horizon is rootstock, smart contracts linked to the bitcoin chain. What is ETH going to do?

Oh and no newbie, been here since 2013. Forgot my password and recovery didn't work.

Yes... I agree that seg wit is going to be an historically important branching point for bitcoin.... and facilitate all kinds of power in the coming years... go developers, go!!!

33 million millionaires and growing vs what maybe 8-10 million coins ?  

[aesma]

I find the number of millionaires quite low to be honest, considering it includes real estate. Plenty of places where real estate is uber expensive.

Lol

This explanation is unacceptable. You will be isolated, contained and subsequently liquidated. Please wait by your front door with your pyjamas.

[Addressed]

We dont yet feel the effects of the segwit, the transaction fee lowered a bit unconfirmed transactions decreased and were still at $4100.

[aesma]

I was strolling on a small exchange and some BCH trades popped up at interesting prices (0.17 instead of 0.153 on Kraken), I thought, time to do some arbitraging, then it sunk in me : I can't send BCH there, that coin is broken !

[savetherainforest]

Lets see what happens today...  
Maybe we can see an early pre-weekend pwmp!!!
