Let's hope BU dies ASAP, I can't help but think they'll have another trick up their sleeve. Either under the name BU or the next take over attempt

Unless SegWit actually gets activated and functional 100%, we will see more tricks from them, they definitely plan to do something, I also cannot consider BU as dead unless they have 0% hashpower. The weird thing that I still can't understand is why people are supporting it If their software is full of bugs and almost everyone is against them.

Couple dudes with deep pockets keep it propped up, other wise it would be dead.

Who knows maybe those BU's supporters are just payed so that they can spread some fuds to kill the bitcoins price and truly its happening but suddenly BU has been fallen since we knew bitcoin is more preferable by many people around here. Although their hashpower for now doesn't turn to zero but surely their what so called  supporters will fell down and cameback to support again the real authentic bitcoins.

Just a wiiiiild guess, but maybe people want a larger block size, and have lost trust in Core's willingness to ever deliver one.

If you think "everyone" is against it then you need to leave the echo chamber occasionally.

Is that any news? Samson Mow was always against BU.

[Sniper44]

the sooner we put this BU nonsense behind us the sooner we can move on with advancement of bitcoin, not only in price but also in adoption and development and in one word we can move forward.

i suspect the fate of BU is the same as classic and xt but with a prolonged annoying period.

No altcoins can beat bitcoin. BTC is so strong, and many users still prefers to have it even they are investing on other coins. BTU is just like of coins that had fallen, sorry they failed the plan. They should learn to use some name and not cloning bitcoin.

I am pretty worried about the one who may have invested in hypothetical BTU token on bitfinex  
BTU will be rememberd as failed attempt to fork bitcoin just like classic have tried before.

How does one, errr me, watch the goings on with BU? Where are you all getting your news on the latest tricks and moves? Are you just reading news on this Forum? Thanks.

If you want to see what the miners actually support: https://coin.dance/blocks otherwise for reading the news then just keep an eye on /r/bitcoin (reddit) and Coindesk/CoinTelegraph.

Thanks for this, more questions. At the coin.dance site I see Bitcoin Unlimited, SegWit, and 8 MB Blocks. I don't see Bitcoin Core...is that represented by "8 MB Blocks"?

What do these share numbers need to hit for there to be confirmation that BU has won or lost?

Cheers.

i think bitcoin unlimited issue still run and not over
until roger ver and wu, is say bitcoin unlimited stop, so bitcoin unlimited can stop
until now in mining pool bitcoin unlimited still win, with 37% use block bitcoin unlimited

SegWit is not hard fork, it is safer to activate, no risk of 2 coins. We have over 80% nodes already supporting it - unlike BU 11%.
Plus the amount of hidden catches in BU is more scarier than what SegWit is trying to sell us: we can start with 'emergent consensus'.
Once we activate BU we will be forever slaves to it. Future upgrades won't be easier or safer with BU.

People really liked their Idea of having unlimited blocks but they never thought that they were not competent enough to carry the bitcoin flag and the rest of the hash power you see are either paid to do so by the team or the team behind bitmain is providing those fake strength. Yes it is filled with bugs and so is the reason that most of the sane people have lost faith in BU and their journey to over power and over take is over in my opinion.

BU is dodgy at best, but lets be real here.

Nodes-> Barrier to entry is near zero.  Sybil attacks are a thing.  These combined means it is an unreliable metric to use.

SW safer to activate -> SW nodes will not request blocks from non-SW nodes.  Thus if you're a miner you're forced to upgrade even if you're not in the 95%.  It also opens an attack vector since SW transactions use anyone can spend.  51% attacks can now steal people's coins.

activate BU we will be forever slaves to it ->  See above: anyone can spend.  There is no going back from SW either.

nah. almost everyone has come out with what they'd do if unlimited actually happened. most of those opinions are not very complimentary and that won't change. the war for the hearts and minds is over.

they can carry on signalling forever, that won't convince the majority that it's any good.

to bad, i was really looking forward to having a dynamic block size that would a) make the block size debate forever closed, and b) possibly lead to optimized fee market. but... bu is dead, caput, finito.

all they gotta do is make it better and address the doubts everyone has. if it passes muster then away we go.
