weather you like it or not the idea of a decentralized "datacentercoin" as some like to call it, is coming. IMO, bitcoin will NOT be able to compete if it hodls desperately to maximal decentralization idealistic roadmap.

So fork off ...

We're working on it, thanks.

Apparently sky was supposed to fall a year ago. What the hell are you waiting for? People are continuing to realize that the fearmongering around "overcapacity" and "fee events" were bullshit.

... and create your datacentercoin.

You misunderstand the situation entirely. We believe in the original Bitcoin vision. We feel you have lost your way.

That's cute. Unfortunately if you do so in a contentious manner (i.e. with 75% miner agreement and no consideration for nodes/users) you will split the network. Only the fork that is not compatible with the original network can be considered an altcoin, by definition.

Just stop calling it bitcoin...

No. It is Bitcoin. It adheres much closer to the existing principles than does BlockstreamCoin.

How so? Blockstream doesn't control anything. They aren't pushing a contentious hard fork on the community. If adam's datacentercoin is a problem for you, stick with CoinbaseCoin.

...and go back to pumping <>.

WTF are you on about?

The bitco.in crew's tendency to come here to trash bitcoin's future while glorifying shitcoins like DASH.
