The phase of the 4-year cycle in which shitcoiners start crying harder about the Bitcoin Maximalism Cult. All going according to plans, to the minute.
Chun@satofishi
Most BIP-110 supporters are losers, and their spiritual leader, luke-jr, is no exception. He lost all his bitcoins due to a key compromise. They follow a cult or a religion called Bitcoin Maximalism, which has devolved Bitcoin from a revolutionary economic theory into a performative religion led by “prophets” who fail to follow even the most basic commandments. Bitcoin Maximalism is a cult of losers. By labeling every attempt to scale or enhance Bitcoin’s utility as a “shitcoin” attack, they use religious shaming to hide their intellectual laziness. They rely on toxicity as a shield because they can no longer compete on the merits of innovation. While the rest of the world builds decentralized finance, privacy layers, and global payment rails, these fundamentalists spend their time gatekeeping the “temple,” trading an engineering mindset focused on solving problems for a clerical mindset focused on enforcing rules. Bitcoin must not be a “currency” that is too holy to be used, too rigid to evolve, and led by people who can’t even secure their own keys. Bitcoin must not be a digital cult or a religion.

Austrian economics is what happens when you force yourself to ask those questions up front.
Institutions are not neutral; they channel action. Ignore incentives and knowledge problems and you don’t get a nicer system. You just get blindsided by the one you actually built.

A monetary network stays about money only when its structure keeps pulling usage back to monetary ends.
Costs, defaults and constraints do the steering. Soften those anchors and drift doesn’t arrive as a dramatic event; it seeps in as mundane, incremental choice.

Bad economics shows up as expensive “surprises.”
A change is shipped as a narrow, technical tweak, while the incentive shifts are dismissed as details. Then behaviour locks onto the new payoff landscape with perfect discipline, and everyone claims the system went rogue.
English
Monetary systems are adversarial by default. Scarce blockspace, open access and hard incentives guarantee probing and exploitation.
Design for cooperation alone and you hand the advantage to whoever defects first...

When a boundary moves, behaviour follows.
People climb across the full surface you’ve made cheaper, safer and more defensible, not just the polite corner you had in mind. Surprise at this is usually just unpriced incentives coming due.

“It was always possible anyway” misses the point. Possibility is cheap; salience is not. What matters is what the rules standardise, defend, normalise and make easy to justify. Boundaries communicate all of that.

Every filter teaches people how to act. It sketches the edges, highlights what the system rewards, and sets the price of pushing against its grain. Participants read those cues, whether they can articulate the economics or not.
