v13 was released 9 moths ago, 9!! According to your data, less than 67% of the "nodes" have upgraded to the new version. What a success, considering how good and how necessary it is to implement SegWit!

This is how updating works, in a decentralized system. BU is therefore not decentralized, but rather the nodes are highly centralized in the hands of Ver & similar. I have destroyed your false claim with 2 screenshots.

Oh, wait, but lets speak about what a "node" is. Because everybody knows each "node" represents a single honest person running a wallet in his computer connected 24/7 right?

You don't need to run anything 24/7.

Node count can't be manipulated... No one would be so evil to run thousands of virtual machines in multiple instances of Amazon S3, right? LOL

Such an attack is trivial to detect. Most of these nodes have been online for months/years.

And in terms of PoW... let's say that the situation is getting dramatic for SegWit adoption, using mild words.

Nobody really cares. UASF is coming.

But you are distracting the focus of what really matters: these attacks on the BU nodes and your ~~FUD~~ messages that follow are being useless as BU adoption is not decreasing in the long term and public opinion is not changing.

This does not change the fact that BU code is trash. High-school programmers could create software of better quality.

If I was at Blockstream I would have fired the strategists due to incompetence: 5 times BU is attacked and 5 times devs fix issues and nodes get back online in less than 24 hours. Without impact in public opinion or node count.

Unless you have proof that Blockstream has led these attacks, you are truly a shill or just demented.

I would fire you too of your shill position for similar reasons...

I predate any of you (including Blockstream and a fair deal of Core developers), and the whole KKK BU Clan (with the lucky exception of Ver). Those who preach the truth by providing data are definitely shills. Roll Eyes
