Looks like those assholes at Blockstream are losing finally. Looks like their 1MB block limit crippling of the blockchain so we all need to buy their Lightning Network isn't working out. I knew people would finally jump over their very dumb arguments that 2MB would lead to centralization.

I am not in favor of a private entity owning a group of core programmers who take a position to make valuable the offerings of that private entity. That just reeks of improper. Good riddance Blockstream. Looks like the new kid on the block is Bitcoin Classic!!!

All this big war between people which have the same aim - a better bitcoin as a unique product and invention - is only damage for it and put in discussion its future. Both group has their followers according to various factors which has conditioned even this big division and, according to me, at all necessary. Not being a technician cannot understand what is right and what is wrong or what variant of bitcoin is better than another but for me being 1 MB or being 2 MB it is almost the same. If they cannot deal about such (repeat for me which judge only apparently) kind of matters who knows what may happen for more important question. Anyhow the division is now a fact and the aim of my post is to tell that from now and in the time to come the followers of bitcoin will take care more to fight with each other trying to argues which variant is better than will care with bigger problems of bitcoin such may be its spread, its acceptation and its regulation. What a pity!

seem like war started and it not gonna end up well for us
opinions are divided so next moves will be bold
what will be we will see but some thinks this is good other that is bad
what about us who are in the middle?
