I hope he will come out as the new leader in divided community. There is no trust between two camps. He can unite the force between coder and miner. As least I am happy he is trying.
Why would you trust Charlie Lee, his brother is a big segwit supporter, Charlie also a Big Segwit Supporter.
https://cointelegraph.com/news/coinbase-director-gdax-will-not-support-bitcoin-unlimited-code-as-is“Bitcoin Unlimited (BU) is a compatible hardfork upgrade to Bitcoin. This means that the BU chain will accept an all one mb-blocks chain. Whereas the current Bitcoin Core (BC) chain will not accept any >1 mb blocks in its chain. What this means is that if at any point, the BC chain grows longer (in PoW) than the BU chain, the BU client will reorg to the BC chain. All existing BU transactions will be dropped in favor for whatever is in the BC chain. And GDAX would be on the hook for everything,” explained Lee.
How many of you were smart enough to see how Charlie lied in his interview.
Charlie Stated
All existing BU transactions will be dropped in favor for whatever is in the BC chain.
I consider Charlie a Smart Guy, because I know only a Stupid Guy would believe his above line.
Therefore since Charlie is a Smart Guy, and both he & I know the above statement is false, a Liar is all that remains.
Why is it a Lie, Simple:
If Bitcoin Unlimited ever attains higher than 51% for a continued length of time, say a week or two with Blocks higher than 1mb,
all they have to do is release 1 Update to BTU Unlimited that includes a
NEW Hard Coded Checkpoint.
With this new hard coded checkpoint, No blocks can ever be rewritten before that block, meaning
ANY BLOCKCHAIN REWRITES BEFORE THAT CHECKPOINT BLOCK ARE NO LONGER POSSIBLE!!!Bitcoin, Litecoin & many alts use hard coded checkpoints to prevent history attacks.
http://bitcoin.stackexchange.com/questions/tagged/checkpointsThe real question ,
all of you need to ask yourselves is why do all of these smart guys keeping telling lies trying to trick you into supporting
deadwit and hurt alternatives such as BTU or a lower block speed plan to fix the transaction capacity issue.
I believe it is purely greed on their parts , a promised payout from blockstream.
However if anyone has any evidence that family members have been kidnapped and that is why these people are being forced to lie, please contact the local authorities so we can free their family members so these guys can quit lying, because they are getting on my last nerve, with their Falsehoods.
FYI:
BTU has said they would not start 2mb blocks until ~75%,
but the truth is they could do it at anywhere from 55% to 65% and have no worries about BTC coreheads being able to match their mining %.
Release 1 block over 1mb , and release a hard coded check point that same day.
By the way since BTU has the majority of mining they will be Bitcoin , not another name.
The 30% or so that is left would be the minority on their left behind fork and not BTC, as they would become
WitPal (the coin for Offchain Nitwits).
I can see their ads now,
Witpalcoin, you can't trust our network ,but we will take your money anyway.
