        The only problem is that you won't be able to see any proper rebuttals to this assertion in the heavily censored r/Bitcoin subreddit.

        If the comment you shared had been posted on r/btc I'd have opened, read, evaluated it bec. there would be chance of proper rebut over there

        Why don't you just post a rebuttal? I'm the one who started that thread. I'd be very much interested in a rebuttal.

        Not even bothering to read it 'coz it's on r/Bitcoin. Post it on r/btc and I would. Interested in reading how people would try to rebut it.

        Why would *I* post a view by the other side? I'm just saying I'd be interested in bringing up the link, but only if it had been on r/btc

      It's a complete mess. Lets just hope all this attention to segwit in any configuration draws support for UASF Aug 1st.

        Without hash power support "pure segwit" is a vague term. BIP 148 is more specific, but requires measuring liquidity relative to SegWit@2x.

        And when you measure liquidity, you should distinguish between speculation vs. utility volume. So localbitcoins opinion would be interesting

      What do you base the second claim on? Clearly not hashing power, but there's obviously other factors.pic.twitter.com/MVjegQGjuP

      Also the version number doesn't make sense at all. Sth like v0.14.2rc1 would make some sense, but v1.14.1rc1 after v0.14.1 ??

      This is FUD that's based on not comprehending different Git styles. Core works in private repos first to hide this public scrutiny.
