Pools&#xA;have stated that they are willing to increase to a maximum of 8MB, but&#xA;upgrading to XT puts them on a schedule towards 8GB which is clearly&#xA;not what they have agreed to.&#xA;&#xA;Do you have any insights into what&#39;s going on there?&#xA;&#xA;Also do you have any insight into what Chinese pools would accept as a&#xA;compromise in terms of raising the blocksize limit?&#xA;&#xA;Drak&#xA;&#xA;[1] https://twitter.com/JihanWu/status/633288343338381314</html></oembed>
