Years into the great bitcoin scaling debate no solution is in reach. Neither bigger blocks nor Segregated Witness have anywhere near consensus support. With the conflict escalating, a bitcoin fork has become a real possibility.

Topics discussed in this episode:

  • Possible outcomes include that bitcoin Unlimited gains a majority of hashing power and starts mining bigger blocks. In the event of a fork, a proof-of-work change could be done to defend the minority chain from miner attacks. And lately a proposal was brought forward to activate SegWit without the support of the hashing power.

  • Thomas Voegtlin, developer of the popular Electrum Wallet, joined us to shed light on these complex issues and share his perspective on the best way forward.
    • ASICBoost and its potential role in the conflict
    • How to split coins in case of a fork
    • How UASF could be used to activate SegWit without miner support
    • Requirements for UASF to be safe
    • How Electrum would handle a fork
