The round table discussion organised by BitFury in Miami, Florida attracted many key players of bitcoin market. They have finally begun to negotiate on block size.
The round table consists of a series of discussions between people physically present in Miami and representatives of the blockchain industry around the world.
The list of active participants includes BlockStream, Blockchain.Info, BitMain, Ledger and Genesis mining, as one of the attendants told CoinFox.
“There are many independent developers who take an active part in the round table,” he added.
Curiously, the round table began with a discussion concerning the implications of “bad news” (like the letter of Mike Hearn) for bitcoin and blockchain market.
At 13:00 EST the long awaited talk on block size started.
“There is an ongoing debate about hardfork and other options to solve block size crisis,” our anonymous informant reports.
Still, by 15:00 EST the participants did not come to a conclusive result. The debate is expected to carry on for another two hours.
Earlier this week CEO of BitFury Valery Vavilov suggested creating a bitcoin and blockchain consortium that would unite the cryptocurrency community. Within this consortium, business would formulate the demand for development while developers improve the technologies behind bitcoin. Vavilov proposed to form the consortium as soon as this year.
