The normal person's explanation of BU vs Segwit:-
BU:- 1.) The original vision for Bitcoin was to increase block-size to up-scale. The creator had said this was how it would up-scale. 2.) Segwit is changes fundamental aspects of the code iin Bitcoin, what gives them the authority to make such changes over the original plan? 3.) The core developers are associated with Blockstream (a company) and we think that they have decided to make certain changes based on their influence and that is not impartial. 4.) Hardforking to bigger blocks is only not safe because Core have turned so many against the idea so it is hard to get consensus. Two "bitcoins" never occured in the past and historically we always hard forked without any issues to raise the block size. 5.) Segwit does not solve the scaling issue right now, it relies on later changes which might not work and so we will have to hardfork to bigger blocks anyway. Core:- 1.) BU team is too small, far smaller than ours, they work privately and don't peer review - in short, they are producing sub par work in comparison to ourselves and that is risky in itself. 2.) Segwit fixes a malleability issue of Bitcoin that has always been present (Don't know what this is, but from an online search some think this needs to be fixed). It fixes this issue, but it also makes a couple changes to Bitcoins code that gives us some potential scaling options in the future. It also makes some minor changes now that gives us time to implement a new long term scaling solution. 3.) The problem with the original vision of Bitcoin scaling is that big blocks make it very hard to download the blockchain and run a node. A node is what allows normal users to cast their vote on Bitcoin which keeps it decentralized, if the block became too big normal people could no longer run a node. That job would then become solely the role of data centers or companies and takes out the "vote" of the average user. We therefore propose we need a new scaling solution that does not ultimately lead to this situation occurring. I've been reading about this situation for a long time now, never pretending to know what is going on fully. However I now think the above is essentially every VALID argument on both sides. *Edit: New valid points to be added, once all the valid arguments are included it should be apparent what the best option is, to us 'normal' people. We might not be developers, but the nature of Bitcoin is that user opinion is important, so it must be possible to become objectively informed. via /r/Bitcoin http://bit.ly/2lk4i3S

Cross-chain replays may be one of the biggest problem of potential contentious fork. It's surprising people mostly ignore this problem.
Ethereum split into ETC and ETH demonstrated that cross-chain transaction replay becomes a major problem if not planned for. Transaction created on one chain could be replayed on the other chain, moving both types of coins, perhaps contrary to the user’s intention.
Unfortunately, this problems does not receive adequate attention when people are discussing non-consensus fork of Bitcoin chain. Imagine that as a result of fork, you got both BTC (core bitcoins) and BTU (unlimited bitcoins) on the same addresses. Now, you want to pay for something with BTC — but to your surprise, the same amount of BTU is also moving to the seller’s address, even though they were not supposed to. Another example, you don’t believe in BTU value and want to get rid of them in OTC transaction. You get the payment and transfer your BTU to the buyer. What the hell?! Your precious BTC from the same address are now gone as well! What’s the deal with that?!
Imagine the confusion among Bitcoin users that may follow and the damage to user confidence and willingness to transact on-chain just this single problem could do. Unlike Ethereum, where the replay problem was mostly dealt with via splitter contracts, Bitcoin does not have adequate scripting capabilities. The only practical way to mitigate the issue would be mixing the legacy coins with post-fork mined coins of different flavors (either BTC or BTU). Which is well beyond the abilities of casual Bitcoin user.

If the COIN ETF is approved, how long before it actually begins trading?
Seems like there would be a great buying opportunity on current exchanges before more money starts flowing in via the ETF if there's a gap between the approval announcement and actual start of trading of the ETF. Obviously the price will go up on the announcement but not as much as once the fund starts trading. Anyone know the details?

I learn-did my wife today
I use Bread Wallet for cold storage, and just in general for holding coin, because I'm super skeptical of hodling it on exchanges (as most should be)(I also only hold a couple coins).I told my wife to download the app (breadwallet) and open it, "what does it say now?" I said...Had her start a fresh wallet and she got up and grabbed a pen and paper and wrote her phrase down. I showed her how to send and transfer bitcoin (I sent her some) and immediately she said, "wow. Is it really this easy?"A lot of people that I know, that have heard of bitcoin, say, "ya I've heard about it but I don't understand it really". As Hodlers, buyers, traders, sellers, believers... it's our job to spread the word. If I were to try to explain nodes and chains to my wife her eyes would roll into the back of her head. Quite frankly, she doesn't care. The average user won't care or even try to. The easier it is on a "future customer" the better.Long story short, spread the word. Simplify it. It's our job to. via /r/Bitcoin http://bit.ly/2muxqqR

The Bitcoin Dream Is The Same Dream As The Psychedelic Dream
I just realized that people who preach bitcoin thinks that it could save the World, just as people who are passionated about psychedelics think that LSD, shrooms, DMT and ayahuasca could save the world.
Maybe we are the same community? Maybe we are two different communities that help each other get what we want, and we want the same.
What ever it is, i think that all of us interested in bitcoin should also get involved in the psychedelic community, and vice versa.
Maybe LSD is the LSD of the 60ies, and the internet is the LSD og the 90ies, but bitcoin is the LSD of today. Maybe every generation will make a "LSD"? I think we could learn from eachother, and help eachother to reach the goal.
Strength in numbers. Peace, love and understanding.

What exactly would be the negatives with a 2Mb + 17% per year increase to blocksize that activates on Bitcoin's 10th birthday if 95% consensus is achieved?
I'm not really against a HF that has widespread support and after extensive reading I honestly think this proposal would be pretty safe. And I don't mean this as an "appease the other side" option either. I actually just think this is a good idea and HFs only worry me in a contentious environment, if it can gain wide support then I'm on board.
This proposal suggests nothing that assumes unlimited resource availability, or that a hard fork is not a risk. In the meantime we would have another year+ to activate SegWit and implement many other scaling solutions as well as allowing technology/bandwidth/resource costs to continue to decline before implementation. It would give everyone ample time for preparation, and if 95% wasn't achieved, then business as usual and we have far less to worry about when it comes to some terribly incentivized system like BU.
Summary: I prefer Soft forks as the more conservative option, but I don't see any significant downside to a long-term scheduled hard fork that doesn't drastically shift Bitcoin game theory into ridiculously untested waters like BU.

The Bitcoin Dream Is The Same Dream As The Psychedelic Dream
I just realized that people who preach bitcoin thinks that it could save the World, just as people who are passionated about psychedelics think that LSD, shrooms, DMT and ayahuasca could save the world.Maybe we are the same community? Maybe we are two different communities that help each other get what we want, and we want the same.What ever it is, i think that all of us interested in bitcoin should also get involved in the psychedelic community, and vice versa.Maybe LSD is the LSD of the 60ies, and the internet is the LSD og the 90ies, but bitcoin is the LSD of today. Maybe every generation will make a "LSD"? I think we could learn from eachother, and help eachother to reach the goal.Strength in numbers. Peace, love and understanding. via /r/Bitcoin http://bit.ly/2m0hTlb
