Subject: Re: [Bitcoin-development] Fwd: Block Size Increase Requirements

Message-ID: <CAFzgq-x+-s_Nbt4z-C4SWQbHdPr159AmL2JvpP0zg1axM+Vwcw@mail.gmail.com> (raw)

I cannot believe why Gavin (who seems to have difficulty to spell my
name correctly.) insists on his 20MB proposal regardless the
community. BIP66 has been introduced for a long time and no one knows
when the 95% goal can be met. This change to the block max size must
take one year or more to be adopted. We should increase the limit and
increase it now. 20MB is simply too big and too risky, sometimes we
need compromise and push things forward. I agree with any solution
lower than 10MB in its first two years.
