What exactly would be the negatives with a 2Mb + 17% per year increase to blocksize that activates on Bitcoin’s 10th birthday if 95% consensus is achieved?
I'm not really against a HF that has widespread support and after extensive reading I honestly think this proposal would be pretty safe. And I don't mean this as an "appease the other side" option either. I actually just think this is a good idea and HFs only worry me in a contentious environment, if it can gain wide support then I'm on board.
This proposal suggests nothing that assumes unlimited resource availability, or that a hard fork is not a risk. In the meantime we would have another year+ to activate SegWit and implement many other scaling solutions as well as allowing technology/bandwidth/resource costs to continue to decline before implementation. It would give everyone ample time for preparation, and if 95% wasn't achieved, then business as usual and we have far less to worry about when it comes to some terribly incentivized system like BU.
Summary: I prefer Soft forks as the more conservative option, but I don't see any significant downside to a long-term scheduled hard fork that doesn't drastically shift Bitcoin game theory into ridiculously untested waters like BU.

I’m promised cheap and constant power, up to 5kw. This sounds to me like I need to get myself 3 or even 4 Antminers s9. It might be at a remote location, so what kind of Internet bandwith/traffic consumption is to be expected? sending the bitcoin over to bitmain usually works out well I assume?Edit: also, how stable and reliable does this work? Last time I mined (GPU back then) the miners kept crashing every few hours and needed manual powercycles etc…) via /r/BitcoinMining http://bit.ly/2loiLwL

Mining at 1ct/kwh, what can go wrong?
