People need to see this. It has actually changed my mind. Maybe bitcoin unlimited implementation will resolve this somehow but even then... exchanges and market valuation...

What a mess... ABC wants CTOR without proving how it improves perfomance. SV wants 128 MB without solving first bottlenecks. Yes, BU/XT is the way to go.

There are no bottle necks 128MB. DASH tested 400MB blocks without a problem. Plus miners control how large blocks are. This is just an upper limit.

No bottle necks? Did you miss the whole stress test?

And did the network stop working? No. Just some bugs that can easily be fixed. Nothing worth splitting the network over.

A) don't think we need a cap at all B) I don't think we need any more stress tests any time soon. Let the market figure it out via competing software. Not decide it via central...

Is it not natural to think that "no cap" is a future goal, but that it makes sense to approach it by first using a "silly high" cap? Compare 128 to 1 (think BTC). Less risk that way

Yeah that's sort of how I think about it and how I like to explain it to people.

What's the point of a cap if the software is self limiting... fix the bottlenecks and see what it can do!

Yeah, and remember, it's just a cap. If we really believe in the incentive structures in place, then we should trust miners to handle big blocks WHEN they need it. Which is why I ...

Can you provide a link to this dash testing? Can you provide a link to any dash testing? Thanks.

google.com, dash 400 mb blocks, 1 year ago.
replied 2119d
I did google it. Dash hasn't tested 400mb. They are *aiming for 400mb*. Their stress test accomplished 500K+ on-chain transactions.

Do you think miners will risk getting orphaned with such big blocks? Block propagation could be improved a lot. Also I don't know if mempool acceptance is just an ABC issue...

Miners can increase block size at a rate they are comfortable with. The first version of bitcoin did not have a blocksize limit.

There were 2 bottlenecks . I believe one was fixed and there is another one at 100 MB's. Can't they just fix the bottleneck after they go to 128MB's?

You don't need to solve bottlenecks to increase the cap. Miners will use the software as they see fit, and the released client doesn't need to be optimized to match the cap.

You're right, 128 MB blocks are propaganda because no one is gonna mine such a big block anytime soon.

Focusing time and energy on anything but the bottleneck is exactly how many people waste their lifetime. Focusing on minor issues ignoring the real threats to their existence.

...client, but ignored by SV. Soon enough T1 will be in a transaction in SV chain too. Unlimited will then see this transaction as repeated and therefore illegal, and must reject it.

If all this is true, I suppose bitcoin unlimited will also start filtering blocks. Suppose there is a transaction T1 which arrives at the ABC chain, gets picked up by the unlimited...
