I have tried to solve the maximum block size debate i= n two different proposal.

i. Depending only on pre= vious block size calculation.

ii. Depending on pre= vious block size calculation and previous Tx fee collected by miners.

Proposal 1: Depending only on previous b= lock size calculation

If more than 50% of block= 9;s size, found in the first 2000 of the last difficulty period, is more th= an 90% MaxBlockSize
=C2=A0 =C2=A0 Double MaxBlockSize
E= lse if more than 90% of block's size, found in the first 2000 of the la= st difficulty period, is less than 50% MaxBlockSize
=C2=A0 =C2=A0= Half MaxBlockSize
Else
=C2=A0 =C2=A0 Keep the same Max= BlockSize
Proposal 2: Depending on previous block size calculat= ion and previous Tx fee collected by miners

TotalT= xFeeInLastButOneDifficulty =3D Sum of all Tx fees of first 2008 blocks in l= ast 2 difficulty period
TotalTxFeeInLastDifficulty =3D Sum of all= Tx fees of second 2008 blocks in last 2 difficulty period (This actually i= ncludes 8 blocks from last but one difficulty)

If = ( ( (Sum of first 4016 block size in last 2 difficulty period)/4016 > 50= % MaxBlockSize) AND (TotalTxFeeInLastDifficulty > TotalTxFeeInLastButOne= Difficulty) )
=C2=A0 =C2=A0 MaxBlockSize =3D TotalTxFeeInLastDiff= iculty * MaxBlockSize / TotalTxFeeInLastButOneDifficulty
Else If = ( ( (Sum of first 4016 block size in last 2 difficulty period)/4016 < 50= % MaxBlockSize) AND (TotalTxFeeInLastDifficulty < TotalTxFeeInLastButOne= Difficulty) )
=C2=A0 =C2=A0 MaxBlockSize =3D TotalTxFeeInLastDiff= iculty * MaxBlockSize / TotalTxFeeInLastButOneDifficulty
Else
=C2=A0 =C2=A0 Keep the same MaxBlockSize
