You know what would be REALLY bad for Bitcoin?
If everyone blindly trusted a centralized dev team, bent to appeals to authority and willfully ignored gigantic red flags.
If no one defended Bitcoin...
There were many red flags and gaslighting coming from core and their backers.
Bitcoin was always more about doing what’s right through technology (separating state and money + empowering individuals) than doing on-chain tricks.
So when these people willfully ignored concerns many users brought up, and still pushed through their venture backed garbage for the sake of being paid rather than doing what was right (pausing/cancelling contentious implementations until rough consensus was achieved), they lost all credibility to me.
