Bitmain Threatens Hard Fork if User Activated Soft Fork Occurs

in bitcoin •  7 years ago 

For someone kind of new to bitcoin, this is a very scary proposition. Don't know if I should be more worried than I am. I am definitely not selling any bitcoin though and have my hard wallet on deck. So I'll just ride out the storm and hope for the best.

Don't worry. Bitmain news is awesome news. UASF fork is going to be spectacular failure for bankers trying to ruin Bitcoin. Just make sure you upgrade to a wallet that accepts bigger blocks if you run a full node.

What are some examples of bigger wallets, that could run a node? sorry for the newb question, I appreciate the the info you've put down in these comments. Thanks

Run either Bitcoin Unlimited, Classic, or XT. They all support big blocks. You can also probably google how to patch Core to accept big blocks.
