BitcoinXT is a classic alt-coin. A non-compatible change to the protocol undertaken by a minority of Bitcoin contributors (and minor contributors at that.)
I again wish them luck and I am hopeful that a large segment of the Bitcoin community jumps onboard with the XT project since it will produce a much more healthy ecosystem for those who do not.
This is what I would like to hear from every "1 MB forevah" supporter. I wonder why are they so afraid of a hard fork ...
Can't take 'yes' for an answer? I said clearly that I wish you guys would get on with it with your bloatcoin and quite flapping your gums. Bring it on already!
Yeah, but don't you wonder why your opinion is not popular between the 1MB folks?
Not really. It is more common than not for my opinion to not mesh well with the majority of any group, and that is very common among groups with whom I find myself in alignment.
I suppose it would not be fair to say that I don't 'wonder' about these things. I've got various hypotheses about why a majority of the 1MB's, or at least those who's opinions are know, differ from my own stance. There is no very good reason to outline them at present.
In looking more carefully at this conversation I note that I did mis-read it and my response was not completely appropriate. For that I apologize.
