Replying to Laukess

I can't decide if I like hard-forks more. Seem like a cleaner solution. You want a braking change, or can't get a soft-fork through, make a fork, it either gains adoption and becomes bitcoin, or it dies a shitcoin.

Also fine (arguably better even, indeed), but no real upside from the filterers’ perspective, so unlikely they’ll go that route imho.

True. Maybe it was because I had only been in bitcoin about a year at the time, but when the big blockers broke off from bitcoin, the signal-to-noise ratio went up a lot. But your right, probably not what you want if you want to hard-fork and you know you are the minority.

I wonder if we'll see more hard-forks in the future. It seems like we already have a hard time agreeing to activate soft-forks that are a lot less controversial. Doubt it'll be any easier in the future.
