"Hyperbolic nonsense", yeah maybe, we all got an opinion. Some more credible than others. (ftr not a dig at Lauda)
It doesn't matter whether you have a opinion or not when it is logically wrong. Saying that Segwit will never make a difference is wrong. As soon as we start seeing Segwit transactions (i.e. we reach any kind of improvement, e.g. 1.05MB), we will notice the improvement.
A realistic 180% "after some time"?
Yes. That's what the last calculations done by aj (IIRC) on the mailing list show.
if every transaction, paying less fees to miners, was segwit?
What is this even supposed to mean?
I am saying I don't want segwit. At least not yet, untill it can be more tested and proven.
It has been in testing for more than 5 months now.
Correct, 2 mb is not actually needed today. 1.25 would suffice.
The go ahead and propose a properly designed BIP and not something improperly designed with added limitations such as the one that Gavin proposed.
If we don't say the same thing as "staff" we are abused?
Who was ever abused for disagreeing with staff members? I don't recall any examples of such.
shocking and ridiculous considering no thread here, discussion, goes without Laudas staff "opinion")
There is no such thing as a "staff opinion". This is solely Lauda's opinion and is in no way related to the opinion of any other staff member or the forum itself.
