#2Hardly surprising considering the other proposals! Bitcoin Unlimited is a joke.

No, that's what the banks want, the users wants something else.

No, that's what users that only post in the unbelievably censored r/bitcoin want, and what Blockstream wants. For those of us users that want bitcoin to work as intended, instead of being artificially crippled to push second layer solutions, Segwit is terrible.

Please can you elaborate on your concerns with Segwit ?

#8To people entering this comment section: if you're not totally caught up on this debate and only have a passing interest in Bitcoin-- leave now, there's nothing for you here. This thread is going to be a lot of sound and fury from the two sides of the civil war, and little else.

I occasionally dip in to r/bitcoin and am repeatedly baffled by the whole debate; both in its inscrutability and the level of (let's say) "passion" exhibited. Still I have no real clue of the issues.

I'm an external observer in all of this and I was reading some discussion about this earlier, could you explain your position to those like me who aren't very familiar with this issue?
From what I read segwit sounds like a reasonable solution to what seems like a very real practical issue with bitcoin today. So far all the people I've seen arguing against this change seem more interested in fueling conspiracy theories than actually explaining why it would be a bad move (and I get this vibe from your post as well).
So what's your position exactly? That the current issues with transfer fees and the long term usability of bitcoin are overstated? That they're real problems but it's too early for this push? That the solution is not the right one? But if not, which one?
