I don't know what you guys want, but it isn't Satoshi's Bitcoin.
Errm, we all read the whitepaper. What is your point in quoting it?
You're right that nobody rules it. However, majority hashing power is by definition Bitcoin. If you reject that premise the whole thing falls apart.
What is your point? I don't get it. Yes, majority hashing power decides which valid chain to build upon. Is anyone challenging that?
Yes, my initial reply in this chain was to this:
So what? Segwit would already be active by then.
And the whole world would have witnessed that the protocol can be changed by the economic majority, without miner-consensus.
This brand of stupidity is rampant around here. You may have read the whitepaper, but clearly there are quite a few very loud voices who have not.
That said, there are plenty of other threads for this discussion. We should leave this thread to the cult of Master Luc, even if he has abandoned them.
