When you take away child's toy, he is upset...His reaction just shows his arrogance for the last couple of months

Thinking of upset Hearn joining R3 and arrogantly ragequitting. Now banks getting behind Garzik's "classic" fork. It is too obvious what is going on.

Banks need bitcoin blockchain but without bitcoin and that's exactly what big-blockers are doing crippling bitcoin as store of value. Hurray... free block space to every spammer!

Only dumb people think there is a need to have a blocksize limit in order to have the store of value function.

Only dumb people think miners can pay their bills with the miserable tx fees big-blockers are willing to pay.

Do you even realize that the long term outcome of Lightning (the Holy Graal of Core folks) would be to massively reduce the amount of transaction fees versus an on-chain scaling?

Are you a BitPay employee? Are you horrified that merchants will set up Lightning pools instead of using your service that is dependent on ALWAYS use the dollar as a crutch to crippled Bitcoin? Do you even realize that Lightning is build UPON a base named Bitcoin? Do you even realize that a house CAN'T exist without its base? How is Lightning bad thing for minors? Lightning can't exist without bitcoin and bitcoin can't exist without minors. Is Lightning a bad thing for Lightning?!

Lightning reduces transaction fees so it's detrimental to your own objective to make Bitcoin more secure.

Hell is paved with good intentions.

Lightning will reduce the number of people and entities paying transaction fees but not the overall amount of fees paid!
