not so much bitcoin.
I own a considerable amount of Bitcoin and am paid partially in Bitcoin.
partially paid.
i feel gmaxwell doesnt care about bitcoins survival and
yet people are following gmaxwell, because of old outdated stuff he done before he got into the bankers pockets and changed motives.
I am not paid by bankers. I am paid by a company I founded whos investors are not bankers.
investors are not bankers?
so the fiat money is just magically there from some basement dweller.. and not from some financial institution...pfft.. keep trying.
And many people are excited about work I've done that was funded by this company like Confidential Transactions and sidechains.
which are not part of bitcoin.
also you love to only circle yourself within a niche group of people that agree with you. you will only hear cheers and applauds towards you because you dont like to hear the negative. what you suffer from is called cabin fever
its like a little girl who thinks she really is a princess because she is only listening to her biased dad complement her. so she starts to wear the dresses and acts the part to please those who complement her.
and allowing bitcoin to change due to human emotion of trust of another human. without bothering to just read what code was wrote and what the actual codes does to the network.
I think Bitcoin is okay the way it is.
because its the way your team have moved it. not the way the REAL community want it moved.
your buddy matt corallo changed the network topology (your words segwit node being upstream filter (hint: FIBRE)
your other buddy is making the commercial LN hub mechanism so you can repay your investors with all them fee's your looking forward to making in LN
the thing is those complimenting you have admitted they have not read the code or done much research.. their trust is in the "princess" not the actual code.
you sold them a sales pitch and not revealed the small print in a manner they can read
you also fail to be completely honest about segwit not being as promised.
it wont fix the issues at activation
it wont fix the issues purely by having 100% of pool using segwit nodes.
it wont fix the issues purely by having 100% of pool using segwit nodes.
it only fixes the issues IF(strong if) 100% p2wpkh/p2wsh key use.. which will never happen. malicious people will stick to using native transactions. meaning problem still exists
