These are all good points and I agree with most of them. Yes, the block size
debate is a lucky historical accident, which makes it easier for XT to pull off
the split, but that's not the point.
The point is, the split _must_ happen because the centralized governance of

These concerns are understandable. What's hard to understand is why he, he and

Dear Eric,
thank you for sharing your thoughts.
It obviously boils down to political beliefs, not so much technical
arguments. I understand that you are in favor of a "guided
decentralization" and you are most happily invited to follow this path. I

Thank you Eric for saying what needs to be said.
Starting a fork war is just not constructive and there are multiple

I think that one thing that is not being so much focussed on is

NxtChg,
In the entire history of Bitcoin we’ve never attempted anything even closely
resembling a hard fork like what’s being proposed here.
Many of us have wanted to push our own hard-forking changes to the protocol…and
have been frustrated because of the inability to do so.
This inability is

Why, exactly, should I have any respect for what these people are doing (and
supposedly not have any respect for what the other side
are not telling you what to do, they are trying to do what they
consider is best for the ecosystem given their technical abilities.
