Note how the fact that segwit needs client-side adoption to enable an actual blocksize increase can be a good thing: it's a clear sign that the ecosystem as a whole has opted-into a blocksize increase. Not as good as a direct proof-of-stake vote, and somewhat coercive as a vote as you pay lower fees, but it's an interesting side-effect. --=20 'peter'[:-1]@petertodd.org 00000000000000000188b6321da7feae60d74c7b0becbdab3b1a0bd57f10947d --nVMJ2NtxeReIH9PS Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name="signature.asc" Content-Description: Digital signature -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iQGrBAEBCACVBQJWdZcqXhSAAAAAABUAQGJsb2NraGFzaEBiaXRjb2luLm9yZzAw MDAwMDAwMDAwMDAwMDAwMTg4YjYzMjFkYTdmZWFlNjBkNzRjN2IwYmVjYmRhYjNi MWEwYmQ1N2YxMDk0N2QvFIAAAAAAFQARcGthLWFkZHJlc3NAZ251cGcub3JncGV0 ZUBwZXRlcnRvZC5vcmcACgkQwIXyHOf0udy+QAf/ZjClqiE2it2GVkhi+dFg8Grq pjjjlPMDxmk3y/zGhbHnISdcUJydXIUB3TKkjYCCNMTCI3jiZ8pKvZMMWIX6XJND XHSCImQEnNZwQbTzfd5+Ppvkdn8L9dYor8T9ayBF7s2Q1DTxCsI/Plgxb7nc5yFJ NHu72LNJC+2bAQvRf5SMnQQXz/IoLQVd1yVO8vFCAt2uz7Dg80wVXauXSI8dkqWR y6pBS8dwanjxrw7MkfnhKqiwXYm7dwIqV88LSE53KQQe/e96vgfD2SpuFUHjYv3p rwkh44ejm9fvyfzCF4YO3QDQMehgVPfHORaNEr0qWrYn37p1CXe0jKbinqCErg== =aFh2 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --nVMJ2NtxeReIH9PS--
