i have nothing to say about what any individual thinks best serves their own interests in bitcoin.

But when a person says BIP110 is good or bad, they enter the dialogue and are attempting to persuade others what is in their best interests.

Entering the ethical domain implies rational standards external to any one person. it is no longer simply about “what you think best serves your interest.”

you have to be this tall to ride, and if you cannot make an affirmative case for why X Y or Z is good for another person, you simply aren’t tall enough for rational discourse.

amorphous claims about the “greater good of bitcoin” don’t count.
self contradictory arguments about cEnSoRShIp don’t count.
sophistry about spam doesn’t count

bitcoin is a tool, and only you can give it purpose.

so whatever you use it for, run the software that best serves you.

if you have cutting to be done, keep your blade sharp.

So when i slow down, take a breath, and examine the arguments deliberately in the light of reason, it’s not hard to see what actions align with my interests.

Bitcoin is only money to me, so I am running #knots:29.3.10 becuase it best serves my needs

Just be honest with yourself about what you use bitcoin for.
