Re: Wall Observer BTC/USD - Bitcoin price movement tracking & discussion
Segwit is ready, preparing for launch!
The below linked article talks about November 15, 2016 as a tentative release date.

0.13.1 will be release soon (1 to 2 weeks), that date is just one of the requirements that must be met before segwit activates.
RC1 will come out in a day or so oonce they go through the gitian process.
LN is coming around nicely where all the implementations have standardized Interoperability and Specifications for compatibility -

You know none of this is going to matter anytime soon with ViaBTC + Ver and friends blocking SegWit and potentially hard forking with BU...
If Antpool joins ViaBTC and starts mining BU then you can say goodbye to this potential rally
then luke jr. will change the hashing algorithm to SHA-3 and reset the system. good night china-man!
