"Slashdot was biggest and dominated the 1990's with their fantastic "millions of users". But then Digg ate their lunch. And then Reddit ate Digg's lunch. Today Reddit has about 250 million monthly active users, and Slashdot still 1-5 million users." - todu

"Blockstream claims benevolence, but that "benevolence" includes no longer listening to the demands of a majority of users for a modest max-block size increase. That benevolence also includes turning Bitcoin into a settlement network rather than keeping the peer-to-peer electronic cash vision directly on-chain." - Annapurna317
"If you were managing Bitcoin, and new users couldn't come onto your system because it can't handle anymore transaction volume (block size limits the number of transactions in a block), and you had an incredibly easy fix staring you right in the face that's literally a few lines of code to change a config setting, would you change it from 1000000 to 2000000?
I sure as hell would.
So ask yourself, why hasn't Blockstream, who pays the developers who contribute most to bitcoin core, made this simple change a priority?" - 10mmauto
"IMO we cannot allow this kind of moral hazard in the guiding hand of bitcoin. You're correct, we should accept help from everywhere, but the reference implementation should not be from a for-profit private company." - Polycephal_Lee
"Hey all, I'm hoping you all might have some advice. So I have about 4 coins in a wallet I have been using for the last 4 years for mining proceeds. I just got a Trezor and am trying to relocate those coins to the Trezor wallet. I'm using Multibit classic, and am trying to send out that coin, but the network isn't relaying the transaction. The last couple of times I sent it out with a .003 fee, and nothing." - Stagetek

"Now the entire market of users has an opportunity to vote on the merit of Joe's change. The result may either be: (1) Mostly everyone sells the new asset and it's clear that the market sees no value in the change or (2) on the contrary, nearly everyone sells their Bitcoin in favor of buying more of the new asset. And there's possibility (3) where some people see value in Joe's change and some don't and users go their separate ways-- some now preferring to purchase and transact in the new asset representing Joe's change while others reject it." - SpiderImAlright

"In order to make their product look better they need to make the competing technology look bad or unusable, they do this mostly by paying people to argue their side for them in internet chat rooms. To further stifle development of the new competing technology, they offer fake solutions to the problems they have been pushing for in the internet chat rooms." - StolenEther
"The reason it can scam most of the user is because almost no one understand it: Even the one give lectures about segwit often list wrong conceptions. Given a such complex set of code and logic, most of the uses can either blindly listen to the core devs or refuse it, there is no way they can understand it by their own research and reasoning in a reasonable time frame ( 2 years )
This is very common strategy in large IT enterprise, called technical politics: Using extremely complex solutions to gain political advantage, because it is so complex, who made it can describe it as whatever they want and gain user support
You can easily see that those who support segwit are those who are most illiterate of bitcoin protocol level design" - vattenj
"Hello everyone,
Yesterday I made a purchase with bitcoins. The only problem is that it doesn't get confirmed and my coins are somewhere in limbo.
Did I just lost my coins for ever now?
Thanks for any help.
here is the transaction in the blockchain: https://blockchain.info/en/tx/03f074244 ... eb7cc2d7a8
