Great interview. nostr:npub1xapjgsushef5wwn78vac6pxuaqlke9g5hqdfjlanky3uquh0nauqx0cnde's arguments seem very coherent.
I would still like to see an interview representing the other side of the argument but at this point I'm not sure I'll find them convincing.
The point made that this is distracting and getting in the way of progress on privacy and scalabilty is strong.
Having said that, I completely disagree with the position that Bitcoin is "just a database" and therefore any use of it should be seen as legitimate.
Sure, it is supposed to be permission-less, but shouldn't we strive to keep it a permission-less monetary network, not a permission-less database?
Contrary to my initial reply, I am now fully convinced by nostr:npub1wnlu28xrq9gv77dkevck6ws4euej4v568rlvn66gf2c428tdrptqq3n3wr and as a result considering installing Knots on my nostr:npub126ntw5mnermmj0znhjhgdk8lh2af72sm8qfzq48umdlnhaj9kuns3le9ll.
