Core is the #1 reason I support BIP 110. You all really made me realize how many bad faith actors are in Bitcoin. The BIP 110 side keeps telling me to run whatever implementation I want when they explain their case. The Core side is blocking me, name-calling, and unwilling to support any right I have to run the node I want. They have literally burned bridges with me simply because I tell people to run the version of Bitcoin they want. It is insane. This tells me 2 things. Firstly, that they are likely all paid/controlled by the same special interest groups. And secondly, that they are scared to lose control. If BIP 110 had no chance to succeed, they wouldn't be throwing temper tantrums. Why do they all point to the betting markets? Because that is the only thing they can control. They can't control the software on my node. Right now, they control Core. Is it true that V30 was a marginal change that materially made little-to-no impact to the protocol? Yes. But that's not what bothers me. It is the death by a thousand cuts. It is the incremental adulteration of Bitcoin over the past decade that bothers me. No one - I repeat - NO ONE should be upset with trying to remove a centralized power from Bitcoin. Full stop. If you want to keep any specific group in power, then you are corrupt. I've said it before and I'll say it again. You should run the code you believe in. If that is Core, guess what? We can still be friends. I'm not going to block you or call you names. I wish you the best. I'm not going to die on any hill. I will be signaling for BIP 110 on my node with the hopes it either gets consensus or wakes some people up. I will be sticking with the longest chain. Consensus is ultimately what matters to me. Anything else is futile. That is the only part I will make a strong recommendation on. Simply because if you fight consesnsus, you will lose everything. If you want to signal for BIP 110, that's great. No risk. But if it fails to activate, you might want to understand what you have to lose. I wish you all the best. Bitcoin is here to fix the money. And if you agree with that, then we are on the same team.



Luke responds from behind a block. This is a ridiculous accusation. I'm obviously not in favour of either.
