Finding Consensus for Infrastructure Funding Trustlessly

In recent days there has been many posts pushing for or against the "Infrastructure Funding Plan for Bitcoin Cash" laid out. While there have been very good points made on both sides, it is evident that this is a very contentious issue. However, this post is not arguing the merits or downsides of such a plan. Instead, it is here to offer a solution to finding consensus for contentious issues in the community, which is currently lacking. There is an easy solution to these issues which has not yet been considered.

Therefore, we have decided to challenge the signers of the "Infrastructure Funding Plan for Bitcoin Cash" to a decisive match of Quake Live, consisting of 5 rounds, in 4v4 TDM (Team Deathmatch) mode.


If you are not familiar, the gameplay of Quake Live consists of players attempting to kill more of their opponents than any other player or team in a given match. This is achieved by navigating a 3D environment and shooting other players with a variety of weapons, while collecting health, armor, weapons, ammo and various power-ups. As players get more advanced, they use other tricks and techniques such as rocket and strafe jumping.

Being largely similar to Quake III Arena, which is renowned for its extensive use in professional electronic sportsQuake Live has seen inclusion in many tournaments worldwide. It is the perfect choice to determine if Bitcoin Cash should fundamentally change its economics.

We will stream the match March 3rd at 11a.m. UTC time on the popular video game streaming site Twitch.

If the Pool Owners win, they can implement the tax.

If the community wins, the Pool Owners must give us 6 million dollars.

Let's stop debating and give it a try. If the quake model turns out positive, we continue using it for future changes for Bitcoin Cash, otherwise we stop.

This doesnt mean we cant discuss the Quake match proposal, but we should just try it instead of wasting time.

According to the non-debate theory, we should at least give it a shot :)
