Re: Bitcoin XT - Officially #REKT (also goes for BIP101 fraud)

Truth can stand on its own, people please use wisdom and reason, measure our arguments by thinking for yourself. Decide for yourself what you think would be the best path for Bitcoin. Do not be fooled by the constant ad hominem and sophistry. Inform your self and understand what the pros and cons are and do not forget that Bitcoin will reflect the will of its participants so think carefully of what you would like Bitcoin to become.

Yes it does Cheesy

It sure does, which is why more then seventy percent of the miners now support bigger blocks.

Which pretty much means nothing until 100% of the nodes agree.

That is impossible, 90%-100% consensus is impossible among large groups of people. Bitcoin was also never designed to be this way, Bitcoin can split with only 51% of the mining power. This is a good thing because it solves the age old problem of tyranny of the majority.

Watch it happen retard.

Still pretending a 51% miner attack is a legitimate fork of the network heh Roll Eyes

oh well...

Do you understand what Bitcoin is? A peer-to-peer network? If you honestly believe the protocol is dictated by the mining power and not the actual peers then there's really no use wasting my time with you.

To be clear: no, Bitcoin cannot split with 51% of the hashing power.
