At the end of the day, I can decide not to update Core or just run Knots. But that doesn’t fix the core issue: I no longer trust the people steering the ship. So here’s the question: do Core devs honestly believe the average Bitcoiner still trusts them enough to guard their life savings and more importantly, their freedom? I don’t think so.
But here’s the most alarming part: I have a feeling they don’t give a single fuck. One of them even said, “I’m a lawyer but not your lawyer.” What the fuck does that mean? They probably think since average Bitcoin users aren’t funding them, they don’t matter. As if we, the hodlers and node runners, aren’t relevant.
