Serious question. Core currently has some development in mind to lower transaction fees and keep the mempool clear? make bitcoin more resistant to spam attacks?
ask the guy who's paying your wages to go easy on the spamming. Two-faced devil.

As for the fees, Segwit2x will probably be a required fork for the "mainstream" Bitcoin, since Segwit alone failed to address the problem in the short term.
The "problem" with the fees will never be solved whatever we do. There will always be people that will say fees are too high. Segwit2x will fail to address the problem and Segwit4x will be required. Then Segwit8x wil be required and so on. This is why I don't see any problem with the fees. If you can't afford those fees just use fiat banking. Bitcoin is for people that do value their money, financial freedom and privacy.

I'm going to go out on a limb and say we'll see the largest sell wall in bitcoin history today. I'm trying to remember some of the past giant sell walls in BTC history. One that stands out in my memory is the one at 300 when the guy cashed out.. I think it was around 30k BTC IIRC. Of course, that could be dwarfed today in terms of USD value. And I have a feeling it will be soon. Although this time there's a good chance it's only flashed. Be safe out there folks  I've witnessed how 32K BTC sell wall on Bitstamp was eaten in a few hours. It was 3 years ago, if I remember correctly, this 25K Ver selling through 2 days is a joke.

That entire pdf is the biggest load of crap I've ever seen. It sounds like it was written by a 3rd grader. And there's a lot of "We the Management will manage things better for you" garbage rhetoric. So centralized management will decide what's best for the lowly masses. Got it.

All of this is slowing a movement and lowering morale and energy. It just about sucks donkey balls."

Oh it gets even more hilarious and telling: "They’re going to be joining Bitcoin Cash for their reasons, or they’re not going to be joining at all. And their reasons aren’t going to be “decentralization”, “censorship resistance”, “non-aggression money”, or any other nice theoretical construct. Their three reasons for joining Bitcoin Cash, in 99.999% of cases, are going to be profit, profit, and more profit, in that order."  At least he's upfront on what BCH has always been about from day 1. Not Satoshi's vision at all. Satoshi's white paper means fk all to them.

ask the guy who's paying your wages to go easy on the spamming. Why do you think someone pays me? Because I have a different opinion to yours? The only money I have received is the money I made in my investments. That is the reason for my concern. In any case, it is not necessary to pay any person to spread FUD on this subject, since it is a real problem. In my country, the purchases of ETH have increased considerably in comparison with BTC. The reason? The high rates of BTC. It's not FUD, it's a fact.

Those Bitcoin Unlimited guys measured the mempool performance and found out it was not the protocol issue, it is protocol implementation issue. Currently transactions commit to the mempool in the single thread exclusively, so it doesn't matter if you have 4 core, 8 core or 32 core processor once the mempool gets saturated it falls apart completely, not being able to process new transactions. They found about this empirically, through watching measurement charts. There is a video from Stanford conference held a week ago where they explained the details, link to Youtube is posted in this thread few pages ago. They wrote a multi-threaded implementation and then (surprise, surprise) made some additional "improvements" on the process, so even if their code will be opensourced it can not be patched directly to Bitcoin Core codebase, developers will have to do some of they own work on it. I'm surprised no one cached this long time ago.

What matters is the hash rate ! Bitcoin is slow and has expensive transaction fees and it has sucked for a long time! Call me a troll but it's the truth...
You're not a troll, you speak the truth and a lot of people, me included are becoming disillusioned. I have used bitcoin to bet with for 4 years now and used to be able to transfer coin quickly and cheaply from account to account via my wallets....It's now become a nightmare due to fees and absurd slowness. I am on the verge of going back to fiat bookmakers....cheaper and faster. Sad, but you have to be practical.

So centralized management will decide what's best for the lowly masses. Got it. We encourage change and will never tell you what you can not do... (seconds later) here is a list of things that you can not do... The suggestion of making holders of Bcash tons of money is litered throughout the statement. (they must be pretty confident) The statement also drives the point home on how professional they are/will be however, this is one of the most unprofesional things I've read in a long time with words like "shitsling" and "donkey balls"... In summary, I've decided to sell all of my BTC and buy Bcash to have fun and make money... pretty simple decision... *sarcasm*

How is 70% of the mining power directed at Bitch Coin? Did Bitmain hijack every Antminer on the planet? No miner in their right mind would voluntarily mine that crap. How did they get that much of the hash rate?

Why would do you assume they will not voluntarily mine BCH? They see this as an opportunity to get much more money for electricity spent. It will be over in a few hours anyway: Coin Date (UTC 24h) Remaining Change BCH Nov 12th, 21:09 3 hours, 2 minutes (131 blk) +400.00%
