Again, you used to at least be funny. Now you're straight up sad. Undecided

BIP100 & BIP101 are the only proposal who bothered with the voting nonsense. Others know better and realize that miners opinion on the matter is worthless as their incentives are not aligned with Bitcoin users.

In short, any form of scaling to be implemented will not resort to pseudo-democracy but consensus.

Therefore, BIP100 dies and so does 8MB. In fact one can argue they are both dead as we speak.

Until then, all current blocks are BIP000 and you shouldn't expect this to change soon Grin

I think you are hearing voices in your head - your persecution complex is playing tricks on you.

So "miner incentives are not aligned with users" is your latest mantra? Well, I have news for you - they never were, and they never will be. Its a complete irrelevance. However, as miners are such an important part of the bitcoin ecosphere, then their opinion is important. Just because they dont agree with your small block world view does not mean you can ignore a huge proportion of the players.

Miners know that they can get more fee's from more transactions. Everybody knows it will get better with more transactions.

Except you. You just want it to be a convenient storage vessel for your little bag of gold - but you want to come back in 10 years to see they have magically increased in value due to....math.

Except.. you know... the nodes.

Ah - the one about "If we raise the limit to 8mb, then blocks will automatically become 8mb OVERNIGHT!!" Dear god, wont someone think of the ~~children~~ blockchain!!

If that is the lie you choose to believe, then knock yourself out. Most intelligent people realise that blocks will grow in proportion to transaction volume.

Lie?

Guess you've never heard of "supply creates its own demand". What if... you know... Fidelity switches that flip?

Of course being an intelligent person you recognize this but given that you are also a paid shill you wouldn't want people to think about this heh Wink
