I'll leave others to comment on whether we can get consensus on
that, but your years listed are inconsistent with everything else
you've written. Should be:<br>
<br>
block 400,000 = 2MB (2016)<br>
block 500,000 = 4MB (2018)<br>
block 600,000 = 8MB (2020)<br>

I propose doubling the block size every 100k blocks (~2

<div bgcolor="#FFFFFF" text="#000000"> I'd back this if we
can't find a permanent solution - 2MB gives us a lot more
wiggle room in the interim at least; one of my concerns
with block size is 3 transactions per second is absolutely
tiny, and we need space for the network to search for an
equilibrium between volume and pricing without risk of an
adoption spike rendering it essentially unusable.<br>
<br>
I'd favour switching over by block height rather than
time, and I'd suggest that given virtually every
wallet/node out there will require testing (even if many
do not currently enforce a limit and therefore do not need
changing), 6 months should be considered a minimum target.
I'd open with a suggestion of block 390k as a target.<br>

<div>The general intent of this BIP is as a
minimum viable alternative plan to my preferred
proposal (BIP 100).</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>If agreement is not reached on a more
comprehensive solution, then this solution is at
least available and a known quantity. A good
backup plan.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Benefits: conservative increase. proves
network can upgrade. permits some added growth,
while the community & market gathers data on
how an increased block size impacts privacy,
security, centralization, transaction throughput
and other metrics. 2MB seems to be a Least
Common Denominator on an increase.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Costs: requires a hard fork. requires
another hard fork down the road.</div>
