2m+segwit, why not?

Because it involves doubling MAX_BLOCK_WEIGHT as well as MAX_BLOCK_SIZE.

In practice, that means 2MB + 6MB, not 1MB + 3MB (Segwit BIP 141 as proposed).
What i meant in my whole post is that asicboost looks like an important issue to resolve.
Of course segwit would solve it, but it doesn't make consensus now and it can't be activated now.
So it is probably better to just stop asicboost from working and then go back to this old debate.
After asicboost has been stop working, jihan and other won't have any mean to activate it again and they might simply go on for segwit.


I am really preaching against myself here because i am in favor of bigger block but i do not want to arguement that here because i already done that and it gives no result...
