1 2016-12-29 06:30:01 <cannon-c> If segwit does not get activated, will there be a re-attempt to activate again, or is there backup plan?
2 2016-12-29 06:57:39 <whphhg> Bitcoin Unlimited?
3 2016-12-29 06:57:50 <whphhg> Aka the way it was meant to be, on chain.
4 2016-12-29 07:00:21 <cannon-c> segwit is not scaling plan
5 2016-12-29 07:00:38 <cannon-c> "some scaling" is just a small side effect, which will help little bit.
6 2016-12-29 07:01:27 <cannon-c> But with bitcoin unlimited, how can anyone expect to download 10GB blocks every ten minutes?
7 2016-12-29 07:01:29 <cannon-c> not possiblew
8 2016-12-29 07:01:38 <cannon-c> or would lead to massive centralization
9 2016-12-29 07:08:31 <whphhg> Bitcoin has been scaling fine until the 1MB ceiling was introduced, it won't scale from 1MB to 10GB. It would increase proportionally as the network votes.
10 2016-12-29 07:08:35 <whphhg> Afaik
11 2016-12-29 07:09:07 <whphhg> *scaling fine in small increments
12 2016-12-29 07:09:21 <juscamarena> scaling fine with all the improvements made to the rest of the code base over the years.
13 2016-12-29 07:10:01 <juscamarena> Scale proportionally? Afaik, they override user preference after x amount of blocks, so users really have no say.
14 2016-12-29 07:11:10 <jcorgan> gentlemen, please take the debate to #pointless-reiteration-of-talking-points-while-not-accomplishing-anything, also known as #bitcoin
15 2016-12-29 07:11:29 <juscamarena> You only need a majority of miners to agree to mine bigger blocks, even if users and some percentage of miners under ~45% disagree. That sounds dangerous. Yes, I agree.
16 2016-12-29 07:12:08 <whphhg> Good luck with this kind of approach gentlemen.
17 2016-12-29 07:12:10 <whphhg> Have fun
18 2016-12-29 10:12:50 <ren0v0> is there a way to force broadcast transaction from core? mine just says Status: 0/unconfirmed, in memory pool
19 2016-12-29 10:13:09 <ren0v0> i pushed the RAW tx from an online tool and it's showing on the network now, but not in my -qt client
