RE: BIP91 Has Locked In! UASF is Dead. Could Bitcoin Hit New ATH?
Just be careful family! Coinbase is not allowing trades on July 31st

That shouldn't be necessary now. Obviously the market loves Segwit coming to Bitcoin. The innovation floodgates will be open. I think the last of the sub $3k bitcoins will be sold very, very soon.
Don't be fooled by bankster propaganda, actual bitcoin users overwhelmingly prefer bigger blocks - NOT segwit: https://vote.bitcoin.com/arguments/the-bitcoin-abc-client-and-big-block-fork-bitcoincash-is-a-better-roadmap-than-both-segwit-and-segwit2x
Bear in mind to vote in that poll you have to actually sign a bitcoin address you own. It can't be rigged by a sybil attack.
Regular Bitcoiners want big blocks? In what universe? Maybe Bitcoin users who know next to nothing about what makesit truly valuable and disruptive would go that route. Big blocks are the darlings of those who want cheap short term fees at any cost... like Ver, or Garzik (who has a Bitcoin analytics company), or corporations who want to control it, or governments who want to know the details of your every last transaction for you dossier and tax records. Big blocks is the opposite of a private & truly fungible Bitcoin.
Ancap47 where did you get those upside down ideas?
Yeah, you're right, who would want lower fees and faster transaction times? That's just crazy! /s
Not at the cost of centralization I don't. That's not bitcoin. You want fast transactions, use Visa.
How will it centralize anything? The centralization is currently the main Bitcoin client that has been taken over by govt/corp interests.
That loose collection of 100+ open source Core developers are gov/corp interests? Again... in what universe? It is the big block camp that aligns closely with the govt-corp agenda. They want to track and tax it all with all transactions on a large trackable blockchain that requires very large computing platforms to manage. Do you think some individual freedom loving cypherpunks are going to have the resources or interest in running and developing for that future version of Bitcoin? The bigblock agenda hands that totally dystopian future to them [the statists) on a friggin' silver platter! It is layer2 that allows for privacy and all the things that governments & corporations fear. Look up LN, Sidechains, MimbleWimble etc. These privacy centric features are not wanted by Jihan and his bigblock-ASICBOOST-miner-killswitch buds at the PBOC.
Seriously, you are 1) ignorant and willfully so, or 2) a shill--and a probably paid one. I am leaning towards no. 2. I would add 3) stupid, but nobody in the BItcoin space is that stupid.
"That loose collection of 100+ open source Core developers are gov/corp interests? "
Are you serious? You're counting devs that added like one line of code. The vast majority of commits are done by a handful of Blockstream employees and that is easily proven.
It's really easy to follow the money from there. Blockstream is funded by AXA. AXA is the third largest company in the world and their last CEO happens to be the chairman of Bilderberg as well.
If you think 8MB blocks are going to centralize the network, you just haven't done the math. I can handle that on my desktop with a cheap 1TB harddrive and Cox communications 100mbps bandwidth.
Let's use facts, not name-calling.
anarchy can not be capitalist
Wrong. Anarchy IS capitalism.
HAHAHAHAHA
"[private] property is theft"- the first anarchist
now fuck off lmao
anarchy is the destruction of all unjustified hierarchy. Private property itself was stolen during the enclosure acts, through force. Once it was all collective property, now the workers must fight each other to work under the capitalist just to survive. Without guards nothing would keep capitalism in existence.
Capitalism has never existed without a government, while we have hundreds of examples of communism and socialism. You lack fundamental understanding of anarchy and you disgust me.
You're confusing capitalism with communism. You obviously didn't watch the video.
I wonder if they will scrap their plans now?
Just use Tether! Trade your money for Tether if you think bitcoin is going to crash and you want to buy some or sell your bitcoin for tether if you can't sell it on coinbase! Later you can sell you tether for bitcoin and cash that out.
What is tether?
Tether is crypto coin that is fixed to the dollar price, so 1 tether is always one dollar. Instead of cashing out you bitcoins to dollar you could simply buy tether and stay in the crypto world without taking care of fees and taxes.
You gotta take the risks of holding your coin at BItfinex to mess with Tether.
Bitfinex like many exchanages past & present have significant risks. Here's the latest interesting bit of reading about 'finex.

hmm right, what about steemdollar? You can keep them in your wallet and they kinda work the same way.
