FUD
badly needed upgrade
FUD

If we ignore personalities, and focus on pure technical solutions. Segwit is far superior to 1mb hardfork increase. Thats all as far as facts.
Calling my argument "FUD" is not a counter-argument. Why is my charge of conflict of interest FUD? Do you even understand the charge? Blockstream's business model does not work without a fee market, but creating a fee market now, before a critical mass of users are formed, will prevent the growth that is necessary for such a fee market to economically function. If that's FUD, tell me why it's FUD.
