It is often hard to make the mental leap when first encountering blockchain technology. In this article, I want to give my view of the current bitcoin blockchain debate(s).\n\nAnyone involved in blockchain should have a general knowledge of governance, as it is a vital element in how the software is constructed and why it works as it does.\n\nFor those following Bitcoin at the moment, it’s either a very exciting time, or an extremely stressful time.\n\nFor those who aren’t following bitcoin at the moment, but who are interested in seeing a very interesting exploration of new forms of governance in action: I invite you to google “Bitcoin fork” and take it from there.\n\n## What is a fork?\n\nVery succinctly, a fork occurs when the software for a blockchain gets changed in such a way that compatibility becomes an issue.\n\nWe can roughly define two kinds of forks:\n\n    soft forks, that tighten the rules for acceptance. This means that all old software would still be able to accept new blocks, because these new blocks are held to even higher thresholds of acceptance.\n    hard forks, that loosen the rules for acceptance. This means that all older software will *not* accept the new blocks, because under their rules they would pass the criteria.\n\nThese are just rough guidelines, as I just want to give you a handle on the terminology. Again: I invite you to google on soft forks and hard forks to deepen your knowledge.\n\nWhat I want to concentrate on is this:\n\n## Forks are normal!\n\nThe current debates in Bitcoin make it sound like forks are a bad idea, or even an attack on Bitcoin.\n\nActually, forks are common as muck. Every time the software is updated, there is a technical fork. The reason why they usually pass completely unnoticed is that both users and miners accept them and there is no problem at all. Everyone just upgrades and the new rules get adopted without a hitch.\n\nOne of the reasons for this is that new software doesn’t just get dumped on an unsuspecting community, but that it first goes through a long process of discussion before it reaches production stage, just like in most software.\n\nBitcoin has a formalised Bitcoin Improvement Proposal ([BIPs](https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Bitcoin_Improvement_Proposals)) procedure, there is a [mailing list](https://lists.linuxfoundation.org/pipermail/bitcoin-dev/) for developers and of course there are numerous forums where these proposals are discussed.\n\nThe current issue (colloquially and erroneously known as “the Blocksize Debate”) is the first time that the bitcoin community has not come together on the way the software should evolve, sparking a heated debate and many tensions.\n\n## Bitcoin Governance\n\nBecause Bitcoin is decentralised, there is no Central Authority(tm) that can decide the way this is going. Again, this is by design.\n\nBlockchains are set up in such a way that none of the stakeholders (defined as Developers, Miners, Businesses, and Investors; there are more, but these are at this moment the most influential ones) have full control.\n\nAll of these groups have different objectives and goals, and this dynamic interplay is meant to make sure that eventually there will be a balance that will work for all of them. This does not mean all will be happy or it will be perfect: it will work well and within boundaries each of these groups can accept.\n\n![Governance.png](https://i.imgur.com/xQC1Cva.png)\n\nSource: [Bitcoin’s Incentive Structure](http://www.bitcoinwednesday.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/02/Bitcoins-Incentive-Structure.pdf) by George Papageorgiou\n\nWhat we see now is an expression of an out of balance situation, and the symptom of this can be defined as a rebalancing: for the first time in Bitcoin the stakes are very high, which explains why there is a lot of fierce debate (and mud slinging). The community is, in a very roundabout way, defining the process as it goes. The fact that this is not done fully rationally actually fits into the Game Theoretical framework described above: it doesn’t need everyone to be rational, emotional appeals are also part of it.\n\n## An Example\n\nIn the current debate, the main contestants are the long standing developers of Bitcoin Core and the “new” developers on the block who have proposed Bitcoin Unlimited. Without going into the details of either proposal, we need to assume that both teams have reasons for wanting their software to be the one accepted. These reasons may be either selfish or altruistic, but they will be convinced their solution is the best. Taking into account human nature, we can also assume they stand to gain from acceptance, if only because their names will be attached to the bitcoin protocol for years to come.\n\nTheir incentives do not necessarily align with those of other stakeholders like miners and investors and businesses, but in order to ensure all of these will support their solution, they will need to at least offer a solution that will not harm any of these groups. Miners may balk at these plans, but if businesses en masse choose one, it will make sense for miners to follow suit. If most businesses disagree, either miners and developers (independently or in tandem) will need to offer convincing arguments or change something else to get them on board.\n\nAs there is no central method of decision, this can take quite a while, but with a large amount of value at stake, pressure will continue to rise as value is threatened. The theory is that in this way, the system will balance itself, because no actor in the system will irrationally destroy the project they live on.\n\nUnless they fork\n\nOf course, it may happen that stakeholders may feel so out of place in the initial project, they feel the need to leave. In this case, it’s most likely that eventually they will fork away from the older project.\n\nLast year, this happened after the [DAO project](https://baswisselink.com/articles/brexit-voting-process-can-teach-ethereum/) was exploited in Ethereum. In response to the exploit, the Ethereum Foundation felt they needed to offer a solution to the community, so that the exploiter would not profit from his actions. A significant minority of the community however disagreed and held the position that the Ethereum Foundation had betrayed the rule that blockchains should not be tampered with by a central authority. In response to this, they kept supporting a version of the software that did [not contain this change](https://www.cryptocompare.com/coins/guides/what-is-ethereum-classic/) and thus formed a fork, which is now named Ethereum Classic and which still has a large following and is actively being developed.\n\nForks are seen by many as bad: they split the value of a project and they split communities, reducing their resources. They are seen as a weakness in not being able to get consensus.\n\nI contend that forks are inherent in blockchain systems. They are built in options that actors can use to express choice. Vitalik Buterin recently wrote an [interesting article](http://vitalik.ca/general/2017/03/14/forks_and_markets.html) exploring this topic.\n\nI would like to add to this that in my experience social forks precede network forks in general anyway. Regardless whether an actual fork will happen, people who feel really distressed by changes in the protocol will eventually leave the project in any case. In some cases they will succeed to maintain a fork of the original project like in Ethereum’s case, in other cases they will set up competing blockchains like the Waves and Komodo projects did after their project leads split off from the Nxt and Ardor project over disagreements with the core development team.\nFork Away!\n\nIn either case, these forks are healthy! If, after trying to mediate and moderate between factions, no social consensus is reached, it is much more healthy for people to be allowed to leave and set up their own projects. This should not be decried, but rather embraced. Forks do not detract from value, they add to the ecosystem. This is part and parcel of the open source philosophy and is what sets it apart from the deathly competition in proprietary software.\n\nIt allows the original project to regain focus and work with a community that is aligned with it in a much more coherent way. If handled correctly, it can give a significant positive boost that will far outweigh any negative fall-out from added competition. And if it’s a straight fork, the project can always borrow new solutions developed on its forked branch.\n\nSo, fork away, if eventually all other avenues have been exhausted! It may lead to a temporary drop in value, but the added new sense of direction offers a much bigger chance for eventual success than endless bickering in the family.\n\n[Originally posted on my personal website](https://baswisselink.com/articles/forks-inherent-system/).",

      "body": "<html>\n<p>As a member of the <a href=\"https://nxt.org\">Nxt Foundation</a>, I get quite a lot of emails from people who want to start in cryptocurrency or in the blockchain industry (choose your nomenclature flavour of the day).</p>\n<p>Most of these people have a technical background, and as I have no formal background in IT, it might be interesting to tell a bit about my journey to where I am now, combined with what I think are some key skills anyone should have when striking out on their own. I also would like to share some books that I think can be of use to a lot of people that probably aren't on any \"10 books that changed my managerial life\" list that are nevertheless worth a read.</p>\n<h3><strong>Starting out</strong></h3>\n<p>I've always been one of those people who are interested in just about anything. When I was a kid, I devoured books, on subjects ranging from aeronautics to insects, from chemistry to gardening. I just like to learn stuff for the sake of learning, and it has always shocked and surprised me that this doesn't seem to be the norm.</p>\n<p>It makes me a fright at parties, I will grant you, as I'm also one of those people who can corner someone and drone on about a small subject well past the point of tears. I suppose you could call me a nerd, now I think about it.</p>\n<p>I've always loved fantasy books, but not just as escapist stories. I also started reading up on <em>how </em>the stories were crafted and created, which is just as riveting as the stories themselves (at least to me). Learning how a car is constructed has the same kind of appeal to a lot of enthusiasts, I have noticed. The same goes for designers and programmers, of course. You don't just want to know that it is working, you want to know what makes it tick. One of the better books on this topic was <a href=\"http://amzn.to/2ag3w7Y\">Tree and Leaf</a> by Tolkien. Read the essay \"On Fairy-Stories\". It's a one of the formative essays to imagination, in my opinion.</p>\n<p><strong>I've learned this is one of the first keys to any learning and success: </strong><em><strong>interest!</strong></em><strong> If you are easily bored or can't summon on interest in things, you are unlikely to make them stick in your mind. Once you think you have figured something out, you've closed your mind on it, even more so if you become blasé and become bored. Interest in the world around you is important!&nbsp;</strong></p>\n<h3>Theatre</h3>\n<p>When at high school, things got rather turned around when I found an outlet for this jumble of interest: it turned out I was good at theatre! I also had the very good fortune in finding a mentor who taught me that while skills are important, creative drive is just as important and that these seldom are taught in formal study.&nbsp;</p>\n<p>If you are lucky, you meet a few teachers that can stimulate and draw them out of you, but the educational system itself is not geared to making you creative. It's aimed, even when well-intentioned, to locking you into a curriculum and checking how well you do.</p>\n<p><img src=\"http://i.imgur.com/SvUFB0Sl.jpg\" width=\"640\" height=\"429\"/></p>\n<p>This doesn't only apply to \"hard\" topics like physics and maths, it definitely also applies to the Arts as I learned when I studied Theatre Studies. Things came to a head when I was expressly forbidden to work in \"amateur theatre\" with the reasoning amateurs cannot make professional theatre. When quizzed on the definition of \"professional\" all my professors could come up with was \"they are paid for it\". It was about that time I decided to quit my studies. I've never looked back.</p>\n<p>This is not to say I just quit because they didn't agree. My ideas were field tested: I had already worked \"professionally\" in theatre during my study. I started off by assisting my mentor directing plays, and had also started my own company. My training was tough and I was thrown to the wolves by my mentor. Performing arts need testing in front of an audience, so that's what I did: I played, directed and wrote for over 15 years and in the process started two companies, because I could.&nbsp;</p>\n<p><img src=\"http://i.imgur.com/R8UO5zYm.jpg\" width=\"211\" height=\"320\"/></p>\n<p>Most people thought I was mad for doing to: too risky and no \"chance of success\". I did it anyway, and made my living off it. People said I should specialise, but I just could not: it was the whole process that interested me, so I became actor, director, writer, teacher and lighting tech. I didn't become sound tech because frankly, I am crap at anything to do with sound, but I do understand the basics.&nbsp;</p>\n<p>At the end of my career in theatre, I part time taught theatre tech and creative event organising at university level. In the end: put your money where your mouth is and prove people wrong by actions if you truly think you can do something.</p>\n<p><strong>The key ideas that I've learned from this period is that if you are </strong><em><strong>convinced (and have tested this conviction!) to ignore all nay-sayers and to jump!</strong></em></p>\n<p><strong>Books that helped me with this were \"</strong><a href=\"http://amzn.to/2aj6p85\"><strong>Don't Be Prepared</strong></a><strong>\" by Keith Johnstone, the inventor of Theatre Sports and \"</strong><a href=\"http://amzn.to/2aj7pJ2\"><strong>Ignore Everybody!</strong></a><strong>\" by Hugh MacLeod. The first book deals with how we are taught to be uncreative and how to break down these barriers. The second book offers some profound insight in how having a new idea creates a power struggle in relationships that will lead most people to discourage you. They also are both thoroughly grounded in real life.</strong></p>\n<p><img src=\"http://i.imgur.com/qvp0wTMl.jpg\" width=\"426\" height=\"640\"/></p>\n<p>This concludes part 1 of my short series on how I got where I am now. My main goal is to inspire and help people find their strengths and help them see they need not be lead by self-imposed limits.</p>\n<p>This is not a Self-Help series! If you are truly bad at something, admit it and move on. However, if you are good at something or think you could be, don't hold yourself back.
