Indeed, this bitcoin unlimited meme needs to end. A part of me actually wishes they took control as the main branch of bitcoin, just to see the faces of the poor delusional idiots that actually support those amateur crooks, but that would mean bitcoin is fucked beyond belief and anyone that has holdings in bitcoin and wants to hold them long term for 10+ years knows the project wouldn't survive. They don't want people to have digital gold.

At the end of the day nothing will happen, BU can't get shit done without Core's code, in the moment of truth anyone holding real money will run Core nodes and those state-bribed miners will learn the lesson and either support Core or get the fuck out and start their own altcoin.

Why not ban BU scammers or at least keep BU threads in alt section?

Interesting, it was argued quite often SegWit full node support of 60+% actually means something.

well, if it really comes down to it then bitcoin will be screwed. if it can do this once then there's no reason why it can't do it infinitely provided the circumstances are there. not very many people will choose to trust it.

if it really does happen then i hope what emerges from the wreckage is a way of getting rid of mining pools, asics and ideally the whole of china. they haven't brought much to the party.



it ain't nodes, it's proper signalling. bu now outweighs segwit.

The government is not stupid. They want to get rid of cash, and the immediate alternative for when that happens will be bitcoin (because they will ban gold too, they have already done it in the past), so you are delusional if you think bitcoin isn't under their radar. They want to crush it, and they know the best way is to launch a trojan horse dressed as a sweet solution that sounds good in principle but it's really shit (BU) in order to take control and get rid of Core which is the original cryptopunk team that wants to keep the network as decentralized as possible by giving nodes the #1 priority (without easy to run nodes bitcoin is useless as a censorship resistant tool).

Government/bankster mafia top priority nowadays is to start shifting the bitcoin network into a datacenter driven network instead of random people running them at home on their own computers (if you are not holding the blockchain yourself you are not hosting a full node, so forget about online services crap).

peer-2peer, Decentralised, distributed, cryptocurrencies are out of the box.  They have no chance now    

Every attempt to control and manipulate will only makes the next generation even more secure/control resistant.    good luck hahaha

Meanwhile, core can't get shit done without Satoshi's code. So what? You seem to have little understanding of the way open source development works. Or really any technological progress whatsoever. Every innovator is enabled by standing atop the giants that preceded her.

The tide has turned against Core.  BU seem unstoppable here. 

the real funny thing about the OP's rant. is that he tries to pretend he cares about bitcoin with the lets hope common sense keeps the status quo of one open network of digital gold

sidnote: bitcoin is not digital gold. bitcoin is a digital asset, far better than digital gold in many many ways

he also pretends to detest government money. by mentioning government and rothchild divide and conquer agenda.

but here is the thing.
he himself is playing the divide and conquer game by trying to make core the victim who should win dictatorship. by pointing cores failures in the opposite direction.. rather than think/talk/ mention consensus of no kings.

ending his post with his ultimate desire.. to exit bitcoin when he can get $2000 of that government money he pretends to detest per coin.
"They will not stop $2,000 from happening this year."

here is some things that he needs to realise.

1. the drama of the PBOC visit btcc, irs visit circle and coinbase began from the blockstream rumour mill.. barry silbert(DCG) has ownership stakes in:
BTCC, coinbase, blockstream, and.. coindesk

so the rumour mill made a normal regulatory inspection sound like an attack. like barry's companies are being victimised. etc etc.

all of which is meaningless crap. because it does not affect consensus of the network or the code.

but the OP subtly is making it sound like core is the victim and if people stay in the sheep stroking arms of core, the price will rise to $2k this year

please wake up people and care more about consensus and the code

I'm not a big blocker but I can read.  BU now has more miner support than Segwit.  Don't know what they're waiting for but it's coming.
