It literally secures BTC from the kind of attacks that we've witnessed yesterday and today.

Costly "clogging" transactions with fees bigger than the transaction value will be no longer allowed.

Why in the hell nobody thought of it before?
Of course some people are willing to lose money just to do a DDOS.

That being said, I'm surprised they acted so quickly on this.

It's over for BCH, BTC 8k in 24h.

So this is the secret weapon they were talking about before. Still doesn't change the fact that Blockstream's vision of the future essentially kills bitcoin.

Why they didn't just increase blocksize? Literally need to just change one variable in the code and suddenly more capacity and smaller fees :DD

For banks, Bilderberg group, Blockstream, using cryptocurrencied, for making cheap transactions is indeed an attack.

For bitcoin core, transactions are an attack.

Your < 100 dollar transactions are an attack.
