Recorded Apr 5th from NYC: On this Live addition of Mad Bitcoins, I join Thomas Hunt and Jimmy Song to discuss the revelation of ASICBoost. Just a few days before this aired, Gregory Maxwell discovered that Antminers have been using Covert form of mining bitcoins given them an advantage. You can read the publication here. This answers lots of questions as to why Chinese miners have been so hard bent against SegWit. As it turns out, SegWit would eliminate this mining advantage and Bitmain will fight this to the bitter end to maintain their mining advantage.
For a little comedic relief on the situation please watch the following short parody video :)
