479/576 (83.16%) blocks signaling in the past 24 hours!

Exiting times!

That's not really important. Keep in mind that you have to watch the following line:

Segwit miner support (percentage of segwit blocks signaling within the current activation period)   4953 (67.45%)

It still has to reach 75%.


Ah, is it so? I thought that it is the past 24h that counts. Good to know!

Most of users only watched those 24 hours percentage and was very mistaken. From the begining bw pool and f2pool started supporting segwit it was clear that in this period the segwit wont be activated. At the same time ANTPOOL (the biggest blocker of segwit) cooled down their hash rate. Its understandable why - because it was clear that this period is over for segwit. Actually only because of this actions (I can call it specualtive actions) led the price go up, when it had to stay not changed or even go down a little bit. Might be miners expected that most of users will be looking only 24h percentage.

So what comes next? Next period activated about after 1 day from now and for segwit to be activated, it needs the percentage to be not less than 75 percent for about two weeks. Then we will see the segwit activation. I think miners like BITMAIN AND f2pool might try to speculate price again to go down by starting blocking segwit to buy some cheap coins again. I hope users will pay attention to the situation and wont start selling coins if so happens, better to stay calm and wait because in any way segwit will be activated, if not with miners help then with User Activated Soft Fork (UASF).

Is it good time to buy who still not did it? Well I say lets wait for new period's few days, if no blocking occurs - then buy, if blocking starts wait a little bit. There is no loss if you buy now and wait for segwit for what ever it takes, but if you buy and freak out and start selling when it goes down - you are in trouble for sure.

yes true need to be patience with crypto!some people say that the winner in crypto are the people with patience , so we must wait it will come the litecoin days
