It suggests removing the block size limit, allowing for larger blocks and more transactions to be processed. Proponents of BU argue that this would help alleviate congestion on the Bitcoin network and reduce transaction fees.

  BU, also known as Bitcoin Unlimited, is a software implementation that offers an alternative vision for the future of Bitcoin. It proposes removing the block size limit, which is currently set at 1MB, and allowing miners to decide the block size themselves. This approach aims to increase transaction capacity and scalability. However, it has been met with mixed reactions from the cryptocurrency community, with some supporting the idea of market-driven block sizes and others expressing concerns about potential centralization and security risks.
