Yeah... your post is saying, I don't know how to read or think or to provide any information.... therefore, I would like you guys to read it for me and to tell me what you think.   Roll Eyes Roll Eyes Roll Eyes


Don't you have any thoughts? or are you just trying to get others to do all of the work for you?

Oh, I've got lots of thoughts! I just didn't want to sway anyone's unbiased opinion's with my firm support of a 2mb increase asap.
I think Hill has grave concerns that bitcoin is not doing what he wants it to. I think he has a lot of eggs in one basket and it seems like he believed he had spent enough money to ensure that his vision of bitcoin would be achieved. It seems as if he is now realizing that he 'made a huge mistake' think arrested development phrase.

I recognize that the article was published by coindesk which was recently acquired by barry silbert and that these two parties may have conflicting interests. However, to me, he came off as desperate. I say desperate, as compared to other notable figures in the bitcoin space, most still talk about how everything is great, things will work out, bitcoin will be scale, and the block size will increase. Hill didn't come off that way. I don't want to be dark, but I laughed when I finished the article.

However, with confirmation bias and the like, I wanted to see what others thought as I assume this is just my interpretation and not universally shared.


Well one thing is sharing an opinion about the significance of an article, but another thing is asking for thoughts.  Maybe i am just a bit irked stylistically when posters put a link and don't say anything.

In order to get the opinions of others, you do not necessarily need to provide your own opinion, but give a quick objective description of the link that you are posting. 

Anyhow, maybe i was a bit too harsh in my suggestion that you may not have any thoughts... but I do stand by my irkness regarding when a variety of posters put up links without any description whatsoever.
