@NVK
The problem that saylor & maddireidy missed here is not 6102, he is correct on that. The issue is large holder choosing which fork to follow. Say Coinbase held 25% of the supply & decided to follow 20Gb/block fork, that would pose a huge problem. Could make MSTR go to zero in a way the tradfi shorter or Gov capture never could. 😬

So, they only failed in 2017 because they didn’t have 25% of the supply? Idk about that The company itself doesn’t own much if any bitcoin on the balance sheet. I don’t see the incentive either, they do pretty well with their current business model operating a shitcoin casino

Are you sure you’re not just trying to sell me a hardware wallet?

I don't think that's an issue. Miners would have to follow as well. Coinbase could go fork themselves all they want but even with large custodial holdings they wouldn't have the mind share necessary to make others follow. To me, people are just upset because he talked rudely about crypto anarchists...

If Bitcoin forks like this we'll all get so rich dumping those shitcoins to the suits

Blackrock, Fidelity, Coinbase, Microstrategy, etc… these are all the same heads of a corporate hydra.

First thing I thought when he made the disagreeable comments about hardware wallets was what’s his incentive? Oh yeah didn’t he talk about a long term goal of becoming a bitcoin bank? Makes sense. My second thought was thank god for NVK and the Coldcard

He isn’t correct on 6102. They brought in the gold under threat of $10k fine or/and 10 years in prison.

Replace Coinbase with US government. It’s them holding 2M #bitcoin
Hanshan · 80w
He isn't correct about 6102 because the banks already controlled the gold when they moved to Fiat. I'm sure some people involved in the Gold Trade got screwed, but essentially the same group of elite stayed in power. You're talking about displacing that elite with a new technology and you don't th...

Neither blackrock nor the miners decide the fork. The nodes do and I don’t see node runners going against their best interests…

Mischa · 80w
Why are large holders making decisions about a fork? Nodes and miners typically make these decisions together. For example, if a company holds 50% of all Bitcoin, but doesn’t transfer them on the mainchain. Miners would have no incentive to support that chain, or follow the company’s opinion/ide...

Agree. The question is, do we have enough real bitcoiners in those companies once that gonna happen.
