Reminder: Core developers used to support 8-100MB blocks before they work for the bankers
Before becoming banker puppets:
https://np.reddit.com/r/btc/comments/71f3rb/adam_back_2015_my_suggestion_2mb_now_then_4mb_in/
Adam Back (2015) (before he was Blockstream CEO): "My suggestion 2MB now, then 4MB in 2 years and 8MB in 4years then re-asses."
https://np.reddit.com/r/btc/comments/71h884/pieter_wuille_im_in_favor_of_increasing_the_block/
Pieter Wuille (2013) (before he was Blockstream co-founder): "I'm in favor of increasing the block size limit in a hard fork, but very much against removing the limit entirely... My suggestion would be a one-time increase to perhaps 10 MiB or 100 MiB blocks (to be debated), and after that an at-most slow exponential further growth."
https://np.reddit.com/r/btc/comments/77rr9y/theymos_2010_in_the_future_most_people_will_run/
Theymos (2010) (before turning /r/Bitcoin into a censored Core shill cesspool): "In the future most people will run Bitcoin in a "simple" mode that doesn't require downloading full blocks or transactions. At that point MAX_BLOCK_SIZE can be increased a lot."
After becoming banker puppets:
Blockstream Core: "1MB! 1MB! 1MB! 1MB! 1MB! 1MB! 1MB! 1MB!"
Blockstream Core: "High fee is good because Bitcoin isn't for poor people."
This is what happens after the bankers own you, you have to shamelessly do a 180 and talk complete bullshit against simple commonsense in public.
You can thank the bankers for keeping BTC blocks at 1MB and force you to pay $100 fee and wait 72 hours to send $7.
