I\n\u003e would still appreciate it if people do that; it is impossible to keep up\n\u003e with this mailing list, /r/bitcoin posts and comments, and\n\u003e #bitcoin-wizards and also have time to respond thoughtfully to the\n\u003e objections raised.\n\nPeople have been sharing the same objections as on this list for months,\nI'm not sure what is new here.\n\n\u003e I would very much like to find some concrete course of action that we\n\u003e can come to consensus on. Some compromise so we can tell entrepreneurs\n\u003e \"THIS is how much transaction volume the main Bitcoin blockchain will be\n\u003e able to support over the next eleven years.\"\n\nI think this is a huge issue. You've been wandering around telling\npeople that the blocksize will increase soon for months, when there is\nvery clearly no consensus that it should in the short-term future. The\nonly answer to this that anyone with a clue should give is \"it will\nvery, very likely be able to support at least 1MB blocks roughly every\n10 minutes on average for the next eleven years, and it seems likely\nthat a block size increase of some form will happen at some point in the\nnext eleven years\", anything else is dishonest."}
