And make it so in october 2017.

Let all clones go into oblivion, with one simple fork.

Make SegWit a real big hit.

This is call out to the Bitcoin Core developers to learn from what has happened lately. To prevent yet another clone from disturbing the field. If this were to be a poker game, I'd say this is higher than a straigh flush, this is a five of a kind chance! Dear developers, you now have SegWit, cheers, and without knowing it maybe, you have the wildcard in your hand. But you have to play it fast now, because november is closing in and many are fed up with yet another clone threatening the winning race. It can be done, the best of all Bitcoin worlds, in one Core! And the satellites still can stream the Bitcoin blockchain down fast enough, or can it not? If not, rent better satellites then!

If there is a plan to do it 2 MB in november, as a clone, again, then just make it 4 MB in october. The Chinese clone version of ViaBTC and Bitmain showed that they can really disturb the Bitcoin field. The Cash split is going to slowly fade out, at least that is what I see in the numbers and figures. But that was quite some heavy investment attack going on there. Luckily the cryptocurrency market did keep its head clear as it saw the clone for what it was: holding virtual value. But a lot of Altcoin owners did sell and bought into the bluf. Still, that is buying all the hype and getting caught in the FOMO {Fear Of Missing Out}. A lot of crypto fans have been there. Do not even get me started about all those fake ICOs that are advertising right now...

Yet, now is the time for Bitcoin Core to make this one brilliant move. As Cash is slowly fading out, losing more and more miners, again, dropping in value, getting lower 24 hour trade volumes, it sings the song of a dying swan. Do not tell me I have not been open about why BCH is a dying clone, that did not succeed in its investment attack on Bitcoin {BTC}. But I also am convinced that it is now the time to make a drastic and bold move. In chess it would be called Check-Mate, in poker it would be holding the joker as a wildcard and having four aces with that. It is plain and simple. The joker, wildcard, is SegWit activated, now the other four Aces are 4 Mega Byte blocks.

It is a lot of lines in code?

Well, no, it is in a file called main.h in the Slothcoin code for instance as:
/** The maximum allowed size for a serialized block, in bytes (network rule) */ static const unsigned int MAX_BLOCK_SIZE = 1000000;

Now, where you see MAX_BLOCK_SIZE = 1000000; It should be changed to: 4194304. So it becomes:

/** The maximum allowed size for a serialized block, in bytes (network rule) */ static const unsigned int MAX_BLOCK_SIZE = 4194304;

There are a few other lines that will need to be changed, like the version number of this Bitcoin Core hardfork. Yes, this then will be a true hardfork. Just to be done with the attack of the clones. Why, well, normal Bitcoin, the real BTC deal, with have 4MB blocks available. So, the transactions on hold will be gone in no time. It can not kick in at once, to it will need a certain block to activate. But, miners knowing that there will be bigger blocks will be really happy to support the real deal. And the cryptocurrency market will reward this using the joker wildcard as a brilliant move. And when you thought 5000 was a ceiling that would hold for a while...? But, only if this gets done the right way, get this five-of-a-kind in hand. Make this the check mate move Bitcoin Core!

Wind out off the sails.

There is a strategy in sailing where a boat moves into a position where the competitors lose wind. In the case of countering the investment attacks by the Bitcoin blockchain clones this would mean just making 4 MB blocks real. SegWit then would take that to 8 MB and even possible to 16 MB. By optimizing transactions and with sidechains things will really start to take off. It is the best of all possible Bitcoin worlds and it can be done in Core. It is 5 to midnight though and there is this opportunity, to knock all this clone shait out off the field with one big blow. It is a dirty job, but it has to be done. The turds are clogging up the drains, there is really no other way for me to state this any different any more.

Let the Bitcoin realm become one again, let it be one strong Core, with SegWit and with 4 MB blocks. It can be done, now let's do this! Dang, investment attackers out off the field, be gone attack of the clones, BTC through the 10K ceiling! Play the joker, five of a kind, move the queen to check-mate position, sail to wind down position.

Ooh for goodness sakes, stop funnying about and get that 4 MB Max blocksize done!

Have a great one!


Come on now CORE, it is just a few lines of code!
