I love these old threads. Two years since I brought the thread back from the dead by quoting satoshi and still nothing!

I like the prophetic:


If we upgrade now, we don't have to convince as much people later if the bitcoin economy continues to grow.

A warning to Monero today! It better do all hardforks necessary ASASAP (as soon and as safe as possible)

yeah, which is why I started this thread:

another prophetic gem from that historic post:

"I agree, especially since generators are both the source of blocks and "votes" in the network.  Since a block restriction would allow generators to charge higher transaction fees, they might "vote" against an increase in the max size in the future.

It seems unlikely to be a real problem though."
