Thanks, that makes it even more fishy.
To the guy responsible for this, (I'm pretty sure he read this): You dun' goofed.

You would think this is true, but I think there is more at play here with the overall fear in global markets led by China.
Why is there so much trust on these markets?
My understanding is that BIP 100 requires a miner vote for ANY blocksize increase and then it's only marginal.
So imagine the network is bogging down and miners are raking in fees for the big transactions, do you think they will vote to increase blocksize? If you say "yes", are you confident enough to bet your business on it? Your life savings? How is that any better than what we have now? Markets hate uncertainty. We are witnessing that.
Yep.
Giving voting power to the miners is another way to change how the network was designed.
It's is another bad idea as limiting the block size.

The most notable is a difficulty adjustment algorithm that decrease the difficulty in case hashrate gets very low. We obviously which that this feature won't be used, and it won't kick in if hashrate stay above 8% of the global hashrate. However, this ensure that this chain will survive no matter what, as long as someone think it is valuable.
Maybe if you have some old ASICs, they can be useful again ...
