from my limited knowledge of bitcoin it seems to me that the block size will need to increase. But either way if they increase it or dont it would be nice to get it over and done with now. I cant see any end to this debate and its seriously hurting bitcoins value and reputation. if it wasnt for the fact that im already holding btc i wouldnt go near it with a barge pole and most non bitcoiners im sure will feel the same way. If bitcoin was on the way to mass adoption then its stalled for now.
To sum it up can we just get this over and done with?
