Again? Is this test going indeed to be on it's finest or are the servers crashing again? And why? We already got the message, thank you...

Are you sure about that? did you read posts from the anti-BitcoinXT campaign?

Here is a summary: their crystal balls tell them we have a long way to get to blocksize limit increase.


Yes, I am pretty much sure we already got the message. Otherwise, block size increase probably wouldn't be in the talks right now. The message is "you need to do something if you want many transactions to go through". That's what we already doing. Message has been clearly received and we are working on solving issues.

so I don't really see what's the point of this stress-testing aside from pushing XT fork to happen.

The point is probably creating chaos or disrupting their own service Roll Eyes
