Current perspective -

They tried to crudely wrestle control of Bitcoin away from the sovereigns with the "hard forks" in 2017.

They realized that it just doesn't work. So instead this time around there's a Fabian style infestation of the space and it has become captured rather than overtly conquered.

It's very hard to defend against this because the attacks are all small enough to make any concrete pushback appear to be an overreaction.

Anyone who can extrapolate forward can see that anything that undermines Bitcoin's identity as a monetary protocol, if not rejected decisively, results in eventual death.

It's not here to compliment the dollar, it's here to replace and destroy it. Cope to the tune of "trojan horses" is now and always was self deception.

Protocol capture is real and the norm for freedom tech that reaches levels Bitcoin has.

People continue to underestimate the threat Bitcoin poses to the system and refuse to understand the lengths to which that system will go in neutering it.

I'll have more to say over the coming days as we establish whether the industry still respects the decentralization necessary to maintain our disruptive potential or if it chooses to close ranks and become a servant of the fiat apparatus currently coopting the network.

Agreed. "People continue to underestimate the threat Bitcoin poses to the system and refuse to understand the lengths to which that system will go in neutering it." That sums it up for me. It's not possible, or credible, to simultaneously hold the position that Bitcoin replaces central banking an...

Enough self reflection and you realise you and BIP-110 are the attack on bitcoin

Step 1: be more humble than this and spend some time understand the underlying security model, otherwise bitcoin is going to break you.

Many of us greatly appreciate the work that you and others do to keep Bitcoin as Bitcoin aka money and not some flophouse for inscriptions(cartoons,) and cryptogrifters to store that and like b.s. Let them scream. Truth is not subject to volume or the economic desires of those whoring themselves fo...

Have you though about that you might be the one in self-deception? Bitcoin is defending against you. It will be a brutal self-realization if you manage to see clearly.

The one thing the commies do right is the mentality that the revolution is never over. I can see why now. I watched Bitcoin maximalism go from ani insult from Vitalik to bage of honor, and then back to insult, but now from supposed fellow bitcoiners. I will always be a laser-eyed Bitcoin maximalist...

If the main characters of your movement didn’t look and sound like complete retards you might have had a chance here. Unfortunately you all sound like dick heads and have proposed something that doesn’t even stop spam and if you were successful would arguably prove that a small unpopular group o...
