I did not say the protocol could not be changed. I am pointing out Krubster's rather daft implication that the Satoshi-CSW question has anything whatsoever to do with the fact that SegWit is the alteration.
Sir,
I have always respected you. Not for your believes, but for being a gentleman and keeping a civilized tone despite all the (unfair?) bashing you receive.
Thank you for that. I respect you as well.
Your insinuation that the Craig-Satoshi conundrum has
anything to do with SegWit being an alteration to the Bitcoin protocol, however, remains daft. Granted, it was likely a mere rhetorical talking point. But if so, why stoop to that level of inanity?
You're very intelligent, I give you that. I do however don't agree with you. For me, segwit is bitcoin, anything else is an altcoin.
Hmm. SegWit _is_ Bitcoin? Like, if one does not employ SegWit, then one is using something
other than Bitcoin? That is certainly not the bill of goods we were sold at inception. Nor at the activation of SegWit.
Just because segwit wasn't mentioned in the whitepaper some 10 years ago, doesn't mean it can't be bitcoin.
Debatable. Though I can acknowledge that such a position has some shred of rationality to it.
Things evole. Technology improve. Just as bitcoin has improved. Segwit is a part of that improvement.
Again, 'improved' is debatable.
