For anyone still interested in this clown show...

@Luke Dashjr tried to push through a soft fork on Bitcoin-jr with ~one day notice, to freeze newly generated block rewards.

The rules just went into effect, and now that blockchain has split between upgraded and non-upgraded nodes.

Whether the split is temporary or permanent (Bitcoin-jr v. Bitcoin-jr Classic) remains to be seen.

To watch it unfold live, grab some popcorn and tune into this fork observer vibe coded by @zender πŸŸ¨β¬› bitcoinomad: https://lukecoin.zndtoshi.com/

The chain with the new rules is currently ahead, which means the blocks on the old rules were wiped out. In other words, no split currently. Interestingly, the new chain is ahead because AlphaPool is mining on it. This is the exact pool they consider a bad actor and is why this soft fork was rolled...

Mmmm... πŸ€” Whats the logic here? What will achieve extending to 45 days the maturity of mined coins? It will make mining economics more difficult to estimate, sure. To every miner. But how that will affect a bad actor in a different way?

How would you prevent a 51% attack or the possibility of one? You would let it just happen. Your statements miss a lot of context and nuance like a strategic gatekeeper would do.
