A 2MB block was recently mined! Its size is close to the biggest block ever mined!

If this info is still accurate, then this is Bitcoin's biggest block. Even if the record in that link is broken, that`s still great! Just look at this 2 MB+ block! This would not be possible without SegWit. Once again, we prove that SegWit is in fact a blocksize increase. And yet, only ~50% of the transactions are SegWit ones. Use SegWit, use bech32 and get lower fees + better overall efficiency on the network. There's nothing to lose. Let's also not forget that this upgrade allowed us to build the Lightning Network and fix transaction malleability. Go SegWit!
