Nun weiß Bitmain CEO Jihan Wu um diese Tatsachen, wenn er sich ein
realistisches Bild macht in den Foren, Blogs, Twitter usw. Und er weiß
auch, dass es um die Miner-Zentralisierung sogar noch schlechter steht
aufgrund seines "covert ASICBoost" Miningvorteils gegenüber den anderen
Minern.

“Bitmain Has Never Used AsicBoost in Production”

"Bitmain has only tested ASICboost on testnet and never used it on main net in production. We also believe that those who accuse us of using ASICBoost privately should provide direct evidence. ASICBoost is implemented, plus it is not used publicly, does not imply that it has been used in some very weird private ways."

Maxwell further stated that the optimization can block “virtuous improvements,” by which he means Blockstream’s proposal of segregated witnesses.

In response, Jihan Wu said:

“Bitmain signed the HK agreement and we support SegWit as long as there is a block size bump up hard fork. So it cannot claim that Bitmain is against SegWit.”

So schaut's aus, Ötzi. Wenn die Core-Junta geliefert hätte, was sie versprochen haben (2 MB HF + SegWit), dann hätten sie jetzt Segwit.
So haben sie es halt nicht. Wenn also irgend jemand SegWit blockiert, dann die Core-Junta. Wir wissen längst, warum.
