So to let the community know, right now there are ASIC manufacturers attempting to block segwit activation on LTC and BTC.
This is absolute bullshit and you should be ashamed of yourself.
Nobody is required to signal for segwit. Anyone who runs a node or pool/miners is free to signal or not signal for whatever the fuck they want.
Quit pushing propaganda.
I never though Digibyte would stoop this low. This is appalling.
Please read for yourself, from the company itself:

You obviously didn't read the full article. It's a very well written piece. Why are you bringing Bitcoin politics here?
Instead of arguing the technical aspects of Segwit, you are bashing Bitmain. So professional.
ASICboost has not been used on mainnet. If it was, grats to everyone on their 30% efficiency increase.
"Segwit first and foremost fixes the transaction malleability issue which has plagued us all for a long time." oh really? how many times has digibyte been affected by malleability?
What about the other 70% of the hashrate that isn't signaling for Segwit. Are they "blocking" segwit. Or do they feel segwit is not a good upgrade? I'll fucking say it again; nobody is required to signal for segwit, you are pushing a false narrative. To say that people are "blocking" Segwit implies that people need to do whatever the core team says. Chastising users for exercising their preferred configuration with open source software. I'm so disappointed in you right now.
Why the hell are we talking about Bitcoin, Bitmain, ASICboost, and people "blocking" segwit on BTC and LTC anyways? Thanks for moving the fucking goalposts. Anyone with half a brain can see what is going on here. I'm not going to waste my time any longer. This is just ridiculous, grow up.
