2. if you read all the REKT campaigns and comments gmaxwell writes you will see where the real threats are made
Outright lie.
4. all the 'rekt xt 2014' rekt classic 2015 rekt BU 2016-17 are all dramatic distractions purely to try getting people to cower down and sumbit themselves over to relying on blockstream.
Blockstream has nothing to do with those threads.
G.max - blockstream had nothing to do with the REKT campaign.. you really wanna push it?
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1162684.msg13070891#msg13070891here is gmaxwell both mentioning the testnet bug like its a problem where testnet should not bug out and should flow like a real coin...(facepalm). oh and also being in the REKT campaign topic.
.. oh and the bip9 threat to maybe at 90% kill off 5% to get to 95% and then kill off the other 5% to get to prettmy much above 99%
yep read bip 9, yep it can be changed. even gmaxwell admits this.
BIP9 changed to a new quorum sensing approach that is MUCH less vulnerable to false triggering, so 95% under it is more like 99.9% (C) under the old approach. basically when it activates, the 95% will have to be willing to potentially orphan the blocks of the 5% that remain(B)
If there is some reason when the users of Bitcoin would rather have it activate at 90% ... then even with the 95% rule the network could choose to activate it at 90% just by orphaning the blocks of the non-supporters until 95%+ of the remaining blocks signaled activation.(A)
^ this is where the UASF comes in (A leads to B leads to C)
speaking of UASF
i wonder who is heading up that campaign...
oh yea Samson mow, newest blockstream employee
lauda seriously you are making it too obvious that you are defending blockstream and not a diverse decentralised peer network..
