SegWit losing Bitcoin Unlimited winning -> Moon soon

[iamnotback]

Ah the plot thickens. Looks like a change in PoW hash is imminent. The DAO hacker is going to strike again. Unless the Chinaman aborts. Core is possibly luring the mining cartel into a trap.

thats some HQ fud man 

It is reality.

Why the Bitcoin whales must have small blocks. This is very important.

One question. Is it possible that once bitcoin is forked, the remaining hashrate makes Segwit pass, and later activating the lightning network we finally survive this scaling chaos?
And that BTU would be abandoned by miners because of the low price and no profitability?

right now the lightning network will only process payments up to 0.042 btc. i don't know if that's a totally artificial limit or whether there's some type of technical reason behind it.

in its present form it's a cool addition but wouldn't do much to address any on chain strain, plus you need an on chain transaction to get it going. it's been a while since i spent so little with bitcoin.

Well that's currently ~$40. So you could go to the shop and use a LN card to pay.

SegWit just passed Unlimited in blocks mined last 24 hours.

I see BTU as a corporate altcoin
president, investor
paid dev for closed source updates
like they said BU = paypal 2.0

Listen, it doesn't matter. The debate is not about BU, it is about bigger blocks. We need bigger blocks now. If you don't like BU, that's fine. Just support whichever wallet implementation has enabled bigger blocks.

exactly.   

Besides, it's hard to argue BU s more centralized then Core. Blockstream is the most centralized team there is. Way worse then BU.

Blockstream pays one dude full time in the entire Core team, give me a break. Core team is way more decentralized than BU, stop believing in fantasies.

Jesus, we need SegWit.

There will be no winning or losing, there will be no hard fork, they just needed another excuse to drop the price for their accumulation I've repeated this many times already, someone earning more than $500,000 every day will not split the network to start mining useless coins probably $5000 a day will be their income of mining just please hold on to your coins and stop dumping, you are donating your bitcoins

[willope]

Unlimited has lost 10% of hashrate, they're now at 29,9%. Between segwit support is growing fast. Maybe, just maybe, we will have segwit implemented soon.
And the price would go badass.

[European Central Bank]

So less btu equals more price. That ain't exactly surprising.

The unlimited people had a chance but they blew it with crappy coding and authoritarian overtones.

All they had to do was be a better bitcoin in every way.

BU hard fork will happen this incoming week too many signs to ignore

It won't fork, there's no chance.

i've just searched long and hard and i can't see one single sign either in my room or anywhere on the internet.

Forget about BU, Bitcoin Classic is going to fork!

I'm with Bitcoin Classic, they have really nice conservative philosophy about the development of Bitcoin. No bullshit SegWit soft fork hacks.

[DeathAngel]

As of today SegWit is losing to Bitcoin Unlimited. We can actually get done with this block size debate. Please spread the word and install Bitcoin Unlimited full node instead of Core. This debate has been holding back the price for too long now. It's time for change. Let's make Bitcoin great again.

Given up on your beloved BU after a few weeks?



Did Classic offer you more money to shill & FUD than BU were willing to? Like the draft so you were transferred?

I hope ALL the BTU Chinacoin shills join Hyena and move to classic.

Merged mining LOL

Perhaps I should start my own wallet implementation and name it Bitcoin-Hyena (BitCH) with black jack and merged mining
