1st of august UAHF : users don't want 8 mb blocks!

[fred21]

Hello,

As it is called UAHF (User activated Hard Fork), this change in software is made by users.

the change will affect blocksize to 8 mb. However, increase in blocksize will lead to more centralized network, which is something user don't want.


So users are deciding to make a change that they don't want. Not very logical. So what?

thanks

The developers made the change to the software. Users, investors, miners are the ones who decide If they want to support it or not. If you don't to follow their leads, you shouldn't run their software. I'm not even worried personally, from the look of it, they don't have much support, the price is like +300$ (ViaBTC) currently but as soon as the  fork happens, expect to see it below 100$ because everyone is planning to dump it.

The term  UAHF (User activated Hard Fork) is incorrect and misleading. It should be called MAHF (Miner Activated Hard Fork). This is just a work of the miners and some usual suspects such as Roger Ver. Bitmain controls Via BTC, ViaBTC has its own exchange, ViaBTC has done some shady stuff in the past like listing 148/ETH pairs to not let people directly exchange BTC for BCC...

The whole thing stinks. Just ignore it, and buy the dip if there's any, it will not last as usual.
