that was a huge thing to allow into bitcoin. you would think that such a huge thing would have been discussed alot and written up about why it was being done. with analysis about the potential repercussions of it. but nothing like that seemed to happen.
I'm honestly not sure how much
more write-up you'd like but I'd say there was
enough of it for people to make an informed decision. And the length of the scaling civil war means that everything which could have been discussed was absolutely discussed several times over. Any notion that such a change was "
rushed through" is demonstrably false.
Be mindful of those who are trying to re-write history to further their own sordid agendas. Some people are still just bitter that they lost and will make up just about any lie to try and gain support for their ridiculous views. The rest of us, however, would very much like to move on now, rather than re-treading fruitless ground for what feels like the thousandth time.
yes larry should be mindful of the trolls that pretend segwit is perfection like doomad.
shame doomad can never use code or block data to back up his narrative
heck funny thing even doomad shows all the false promises and lies
If widely used this proposal gives a 2x capacity increase
(more if multisig is widely used),
According to some calculations performed by Anthony Towns, a block filled with standard single-signature P2PKH transactions would be about 1.6MB and a block filled with 2-of-2 multisignature transactions would be about 2.0MB.
still waiting on the proposed 1.6mb-2x legacy amount.. its been 6 years..
really did laugh when doomad linked things full of broken promises and lies and he thought it validated his narrative
yet 6 years of block data show no legacy tx data ever surpassed the 1mb limit
