The irony is that you call BIP-110 supporters “NPCs,” while your own reason for rejecting it was basically: "I knew it was going to fail because the majority didn’t support it."

An NPC isn’t just someone who agrees with the majority. It’s someone who doesn’t arrive at a position independently, but takes the prevailing consensus as the thing that decides what’s worth supporting.

One of the clearest signs of Bitcoin's cultural decadence was the sudden convergence among its influencers around opening Bitcoin to use cases it was never originally designed to serve.

Suddenly the same people who once preached that Bitcoin must never compromise its principles are celebrating its ability to be used for everything.

My suspicion is that Bitcoin's cultural transformation was not accidental.
As the movement grew, the people attracted to it increasingly brought with them the values Bitcoin originally opposed: convenience, consumption, status, financialization, mass approval, and the desire to make Bitcoin useful to the very values it was meant to overthrow.

Bitcoin's danger was never only that the state might capture it.
It was that Bitcoin might become so successful that the values of the old, decadent world would quietly reproduce themselves inside it.

“Stay humble” is a comforting, little religion of safety that converts uncertainty, fear, and conformity into virtue.

Matthew had the courage to take a position, to risk being wrong, to fight for something he believed in, and that is infinitely more admirable than sitting comfortably on the sidelines, watching others take risks, and then congratulating yourself for being “humble” when they fail.

Hahaha, there's a difference—I don't scam anyone, and I offer my help for free and out of the goodness of my heart.

This is going to be my last post about BIP-110. I’m really pissed off. I was one of the first in the community to warn that the Core team was completely corrupt and had likely been compromised by t...

You have become powerless and resentful, so you seek villains to blame: Core developers, the CIA, BIP-110 supporters, corrupt actors everywhere.

You care less about Bitcoin and more about the emotional satisfaction of having someone to blame and to be proven right. What other solutions do you have besides promising to return and mock BIP-110 supporters?

Nowhere do you say what should be built, improved, or created. Your entire mindset is reactive and weak.
