Bip110 was the right call, we just assumed miners would act rationally independently. It turns out the current state of mining is similar to a cartel where 5 big entities through back channels decided...
I'm not sad or angry because beep 110 was left behind, in fact this is starting to raise more questions for me to know how the bitcoin community really is.
yesterday showed me something much bigger, it no longer matters if you run your own nodes, that knots have helped more people access bitcoin thanks to the limitation of space in the blocks or that you learn to connect your wallets to these nodes, the only ones that really matter now are mining companies that have almost infinite energy to generate blocks faster than a mining pool that makes it slower.
I think I'm already starting to understand a little why the monero community criticizes the current state of bitcoin a lot.
