i think they are addicted to their own farts, they have control and refuse to give it up
the moment they let the blocksize go up, it completely invalidates the need for LN (and them)

Because they sell solutions caused by having small blocks.

The argument is that larger block sizes make the size of the entire blockchain larger, thus reducing the amount of people willing to run a node. However with Moore’s law for hard drive space it’s kind of a retarded argument

2012 fag, watched it all, imagine this.

> Bitcoin exists
> People start using it for quirky payments, an online donation, some gambling (satoshi dice)
> Then real life businesses start to accept bitcoin, a muffin store here, a taco stand there, a coffee shop there.
> Next online businesses, real businesses start to accept it for stuff
> Next huge businesses start to accept bitcoin for things, steam, microsoft, etc.
> Bitcoin is obviously growing, a huge organic success. Existing competitors to bitcoin's payment network want it stopped.
> Enter Blockstream, they buy off the key developers and moderators of discussion forums (bitcointalk and /r/bitcoin).
> All discussion of "alternative" non-blockstream controlled nodes is banned. Bitcoin+
> Paid off developers all decide that increasing bitcoin's capacity is dangerous and refuse to lift the temporary 1mb blocksize limitation.
> Transaction costs go up because demand for transactions exceeds blockspace supply.
> The mempool of broadcasted transactions grows and never clears, transactions become stuck in the network and never make it into blocks.
> Blockstream add "replace by fee" to bitcoin, now you can rebroadcast a transaction at a higher fee.
> Bitcoin now becomes a nightmare for online businesses, they have no way of trusting if a transaction that was broadcast to the memory pool will make it into a block. Online business requires instant payment, not waiting 10+ minutes for payment confirmation.
> User experience with online payments becomes shit, customer support gets hammered and businesses REMOVE support for BTC payments.
> BitPay, a company that was growing rapidly by allowing IRL businesses to accept bitcoin and easily convert it to cash stops growing, no businesses want to touch bitcoin, it's toxic. Bitpay slowly fades into obscurity.
> Gavin Andresen comes out and states that Craig Wright is Satoshi Nakamoto, Blockstream dev's immediately revoke his access to the bitcoin software repository.

> Segwit is announced, a controversial addition that changes the structure of a bitcoin block to one that no longer conforms to the white paper description. By seperating the witness data from the transaction data the idea is that blocks can use this space to have more transactions. Stupid because increasing the blocksize to 2mb has the same effect.
> Blockstream no longer measure blocks by MB or KB but by a "weighted" size.
> No miners want segwit, it requires miners signal in their blocks support for it and once a critical mass of miners signal support, the hard fork would occur and it would be baked in.
> Miners are seperated into two camps, segwit supporters and big blockers.
> Blockstream shit their pants and race all around the world to have meetings with miners making false promises that they'll make more money by supporting segwit.
> Miners decide that they'll support segwit only if the blocksize is lifted to 2mb
> Segwit 2x is decided upon.
> Segwit is activated (Bitcoin cash is created to maintain the original bitcoin without segwit)
> Blockstream betrays the miners, never increases the blocksize to 2mb
> Attacks on BCH begin, a huge smearing campaign, exchanges refusing to list it. Coinbase even pulled support temporarily after initially listing it because the price was rapidly rising, to 50% of BTC's price.

I saw it all, BSV is the 2012 Bitcoin with full potential unlocked and as bitcoin should be.

because larger blocks mean more transactions per second which means they will compete with Credit Cards.

Checked, but bitcoin is not an idea, it is a working implementation of a protocol (BSV). It is currently locked down, and scales to world record 4gig blocks on chain. Globohomos tried, but failed to steal the project, and the truth that CSW is SN will prevail, and BSV enthusiants will become rich as fuck for knowing this all along.

>> No.52920981

>>52920939
BCH decided that the dev's rather than the market should dictate how the coin is used. They did this by restricting the OP_RETURN limit to 220 bytes. They also wanted to get rid of proof of work in favor of an avalanch consensus mechanism and all sorts of other stupid shit. BCH is nothing but a developers play thing. Hard forks every 6 months, bullshit that won't attract any long term development because there's no guarantee that the years of work you've invested in won't be pointless because some BCH dev decided to change something.
They also refused to scale up the network which removed a bunch of use cases and utility from BCH. They want it to be purely for payments which is stupid because bitcoin was released with SCRIPT enabling so much more functionality.
They also allowed Amaury Sechet to come in and fuck the difficulty adjustment algorithim so that BCH could never have more than 10% of the hash power. This preserved BTC's claim to all the hash and miners during the initial fork.
