Both UASF and SegWit2x have every right to do what they're doing. You run whatever code you want, they can run whatever code they want.
don't compare a UASF real modified & verified Bitcoin Core version only with a BIP0148 identified strategy ... and a dark version launched by a mining sector (with 61% of the mining power of the whole Bitcoin network).
Segwit2x is not a BIP.
BIP0091 is not a BIP recognize by Bitcoin Core (find BIP91 here ?
https://bitcoincore.org/en/bips/ =
NO).
So. Much. Arrogance.
First off, I'll compare whatever the hell I like, you oppressive little despot. Secondly, just because
you think one of those two is "valid", it doesn't mean everyone else does and it certainly doesn't mean you get to tell people what they're doing isn't valid just because Core haven't given it their seal of approval (and for the record, I think you'll find some of the Core developers said UASF was "reckless", but I'm sure you're happy to gloss over that little fact). The difference between us, is that even though I'm not fond of UASF and find it to be a far more radical departure in terms of network governance than any hard fork could ever be, I fully defend their right to do what they're doing. For the record, I personally think what they're doing is stupid, but I'll defend to the death their right to do it in a permissionless system.
You or I don't get to decide what is or isn't valid. Nor do any developers. That's not how this works at all. All we get to decide is what code we run and so does everyone else. You have no say whatsoever in what code other people choose to run. End of. If you can't handle that, tough shit. Permissionless. You can play totalitarian anywhere else you like, but that shit doesn't fly here.
I see, you're another one of those people who think miners and other users have to blindly follow along and can't make their own decisions about the software they choose to run. I assure you, it's definitely you who has a problem.
Yes, it's a problem for me.
A
BIG one.
We have identified a mining sector that it can do an 51% attack if they want.
Remember the 57% of a 1 pool in 2014-2015 ?
No ?
Ah, yes, the old "
everyone who disagrees with me must be under the direct influence of one person because my tinfoil hat says so and that means I can disregard their opinion" argument. Yeah, that's not getting boring at all. Again, are you really so arrogant as to think that every single miner supporting SegWit2x is some sort of mindless drone doing what the boss says? You sound like some demented religious fanatic. Cry moar.
