Re: [neㄘcash, ᨇcash, net⚷eys, or viᖚes?] Name AnonyMint's vapor coin?

Given Bitcoin has been 51% attacked by Chinese miners now (refusing to allow an increase in the block size)

There is no consensus between developers and it's the miners fault for not forking the coin to two competing coins? That's a 51% attack?

If there was dev consensus and they refused that would be a different issue altogether.

The (big Chinese) miners have chosen sides here, whether they state it in those terms or not. They have stated they will use Core, which is itself not a consensus among developers, it is a small block solution supported by some of the developers.

The thing works as follows. You have the code (Bitcoin) and for serious changes to be implemented you have to have a very large consensus.

That's a good story. If you support the status quo, that's the story you tell. But it isn't accurate.

If you have any kind of rough consensus, or even just lack of strong consensus to oppose a change, then support of the majority of miners is sufficient to make any change you want. That's the reality.
