Hi calaber24p, thanks for digging into this a little bit. It really seems like you know your stuff. Continue to share, because people need our insight to get to the bottom of all this.

I've been doing a lot of research lately on this topic and I have discovered some very startling and disturbing things including Segwit2x ties to MasterCard and The Federal Reserve. I have outlined them in two articles which I posted, and there's a lot more to come.

Here's a link to the articles: ([1], [2])

Please make sure you portray to users how important this stuff is, and to not just 'accept the most popular chain as the best', we have seen a blatant attempt to disrupt the network and move swiftly away from the original philosophies of Satoshi (the idea of a completely decentralized digital money -- not very decentralized if Mastercard and the Fed Reserve are literally in control of core).

That presents serious problems for the future of Bitcoin and crypto-currencies in general. Please look over my research including a direct quote from Jeff Garzik in 2013 saying the block size limit is 'intentional'. Any true Bitcoin researcher knows that Satoshi only implemented the 1mb block limit as an anti-spam measure for when Bitcoin was in its infancy. He outlined a very easy method to change the blocksize without changing much else.

His original idea and philosphy have not been followed, and these segwit abominations we are witnessing are truly getting out of hand.
