Hace 2 años ocurrió la 1era batalla épica ganada por los usuarios de #bitcoin

Un grupo de +50 mineros y corporaciones nos quisieron imponer el acuerdo de New York #SegWit2X, sin tenernos en cuenta

#NO2X fue la respuesta de la comunidad, realizando #UASF para escalar Bitcoin Image
Ese grupo +50 pretendía hacernos creer que ellos tenían el control de #Bitcoin, se olvidaron que esto es una tecnología de bien público (descentralizada), de la cual los usuarios (nodos completos) son quienes toman las decisiones medium.com/@DCGco/bitcoin…
Algunos se retractaron a tiempo, los Bitcoiner promovieron la campaña #NO2X y el desarrollador “Shaolinfry” (GRACIAS) propuso un esquema de activación alternativo de #SegWit -> #UASF (Bifurcación suave activada por el usuario) nob2x.org

Happy Bitcoin Independence Day!

Today commemorates an important day in the #Bitcoin community where on August 1st, 2017, users decided to claim control over the network. We've compiled a thread of @AaronvanW's coverage on the event dating back to May 2017👇#UASF #No2X
May 24th, 2017 — Spearheaded by @barrysilbert's DCG, over 50 companies signed and published a “Bitcoin Scaling Agreement” on Medium. [It] intends to put an end to Bitcoin’s long-lasting scaling debate.

Whether it actually will is another question.

June 16, 2017 — Bitcoin’s long-lasting scaling debate appeared to be heading toward a climax lately, with two proposals gaining significant traction. At one end... BIP148, a user activated soft fork.. On the other, there’s SegWit2x.

This is the battle of our lifetime. #No2X was just a friendly picnic compared to this. GO LNP/BP!!!
If we lose, let's remember that truth is NOT a democracy!!! And Twitter is not Sybil-resistant anyway!!!
But, if we win, than THERE IS CONSENSUS, and Bitcoin Twitter (which is the true Bitcoin decision layer) has spoken!!!

1/19 THE ROAD TO BITCOIN RICHES ISN’T ALWAYS PAVED

Whether it was lost or stolen funds, feuds that broke-up friendships, innovations that went awry, everyone has a #BitcoinRegret.

Welcome to the next chapter of the #BitcoinAt10 multimedia series - ow.ly/QwfK30nvTsQ
2/19 When… Prius?

While the #bitcoin industry is infatuated with Lambos, @Rassah couldn't care less about suicide doors and instead purchased a planet-saving Prius.

There's one catch – he did it when bitcoin was at $22.

3/19 The ole' wiped the hard drive story

.@JosephFiscella is one of those – he mined #bitcoin in the early days, forgot about it and then reformatted his hard drive, erasing everything.

Don't worry, he's still holding out hope.

1/ What do memes, shitposting, #NO2X and “community” have to do with one another? Riffing on @spencernoon’s community thread from yesterday a little.
2/ If blockchains are network organization tools, one of the most important answers to “why decentralize” is to eliminate the distinction between network owners and network participants.
3/ When networks have owners who are separate from participants, at some point incentives diverge. In the case of network businesses like Amazon or Facebook, this manifests as higher fees or more data capture to satisfy shareholders. @Kjer called this the “Extraction Imperative”

1/ Good intentions are commendable but actions and consequences matter too (a lot more imo).

I was one of Erik's biggest fans before 2017 but then he became a leader in the most concerted political attack on Bitcoin in its history (#NO2X).
2/ Let us not forget that reputation should be associated with the consequences of our actions. Erik and ShapeShift have earned the suspicion of people who care about #Bitcoin.

If 2X had succeeded (with Erik's help), BTC's core value would have been destroyed.
3/ Bitcoin survived because of a strong streak of corporate suspicion in its community. That suspicion is now trained on ShapeShift, which is clearly changing the nature of its business at the expense of the privacy of its users.

Even conceding that the intentions behind the NYA were noble, the refusal to add replay protection was reckless and hostile. #No2X
Forks can be the least coercive way to enforce rule changes when lacking unanimous consensus, but only if people are free to *not* follow it
That requires proper (opt-out) replay protection. Something the industry came together to demand with Bitcoin Unlimited, but forgot with S2X
