Mar 10th from NYC: The WCN crew got together in California for this special episode. Here is the TL;DR


0:01:00 – Bitcoin ETF Denied: Told You So!!!


0:36:00 – User Activated Soft Fork (UASF) via Full Nodes: This is the new trend that should help us finally get SegWit into the system. Chris Ellis had lots of interesting things to say here. I think users will go a long way in determining how Bitcoin scales.


1:04:00 – Antpool Starts Signaling Bitcoin Unlimited: I take the time to talk about how much I don’t like Bitmain and their mining pool Antpool. I called bullshit on this and when ASICBoost was exposed a few weeks later we figured out why.
