>You can be killing it 24/7 Problem is they have -not- been killing it 24/7. This block size debate has been going on for years with Blockstream(Core) refusing to do anything about it aside from indirect fixes. Well before Bitcoin's 1MB blocks were full people were getting dismissed/deflected/denigrated due to bringing the subject up to the developers. As the issue climaxed earlier this year Blockstream only proposed SegWit as a fix[1]. Segwit isn't even related to the block size issue directly. It is more applicable to Blockstream's business plans for rolling out for-profit Lightning Network nodes that use Bitcoin as a settlement layer. So for years now Blockstream has done what? Threatened to edit[2] Satoshi's whitepaper while ignoring public consensus unless the public accepts their kludge of a 'fix?' Fire Core. They are overtly driving Bitcoin away from the purpose it was created for, a "peer to peer electronic currency." They halted Bitcoin development after investment by AXA and others, turning their focus into creating for-profit products that use Bitcoin. Fire Core.
