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’s core principles and ethos.

That would be REALLY bad for Bitcoin.

As in a death sentence for the mission of separating state and money.

Independent minded people who don’t bend to peer pressure used to be considered a feature, not a bug.

Core v30 changed that for some reason.

A) I think v30, the rationale, the haste, the circumstances, the philosophical implications, the arrogance, the handwaving, the disdain for broad community outrage and more, shows beyond doubt that something is very wrong with Bitcoin Core and/or how it works right now.

B) That means I am taking a stand against it

C) This DOES NOT necessarily mean that I know for a fact BIP-110 is the best countermove, but it DOES MEAN that I think some form of strong action has to be mustered against it, if Core shows no willingness to accept they have acted recklessly and unwise, and start working to remedy the situation and heal the social fracture.

D) As of now I support BIP-110

Is one of the main arguments against bip-110 that not enough people support it?

Would some of the “reckless” and “dangerous” criticism go away if support was much higher? And would that criticism then deservedly go towards Core and v30 instead?

Adam ignoring this gives me more than enough answers.

Just so fucking disappointed 😢
