About this book
Jonathan Bier chronicles Bitcoin's blocksize war from August 2015 to November 2017, a conflict that on the surface concerned the data allowed in each block but exposed deeper questions about who controls Bitcoin's protocol rules. He traces failed scaling proposals from Bitcoin XT to SegWit2x, drawing on discussions with key players on both sides, and recounts how the small-blockers' victory entrenched Bitcoin's strict consensus model and resistance to change.
