So to dig a little deeperā¦ What you are saying is that Coreās code reflects consensus rules that the core developers choose but donāt dictate that end users use core?
They donāt dictate, they implement changes aka force without approval.

No. They only have a monopoly on excellence which is why everyone wants to voluntarily run their software. You can't have a monopoly on voluntarism.
A natural monopoly implies network lockin or switching costs and bitcoin has neither, there are no economic, technical, or legal barriers stopping anyone from forking Core, running Knots, or building fresh clients.
Voluntary preference is not market capture, do you understand this yet?
This just sounds desperate.
We are all on the same team. I think Vortex runs knots. He just likes to debate about it.

Yah not even close, I prefer not to lose coin.
Is there a chance that we lose bitcoin with Knots? I prefer not to lose coin also. Sats are limited.
What do you think the % is?
Nearly impossible to calculate exact percentage, the chances of losing coin are simply higher when using non peer reviewed software vs peer reviewed.
The chances are simply higher when using peer-reviewed software vs non peer-reviewed software. They literally can't even hire another dev for Knots despite their best efforts, but nobody wants to work on it š
*chances of NOT losing coin are simply higher when using peer-reviewed software
So it is akin to going west until you find land, or Bitcoin in the early days? There are a few pioneers that believed in the project until the project stood on its own? Iām down for that!
I live to be the first or one of the first to something. I like to think that I can see greatness at the beginning along with a few others.
Wish I couldāve found bitcoin earlier though. Ya feel me?
Yah not even close, your analogies seem to keep failing, perhaps because of a lack of technical understanding.
Come on bro. Iām not dissing you. Why do you want to start something here?
You donāt have technical knowledge on women, but you donāt see me on here trying to call you a homo.
Oh waitā¦ let me guess. To have relations with a women I must become a woman?
That is stupid. About as stupid as saying I need technical knowledge on how to code bitcoin or know how it works to hold my own keys.
Letās assume that everyone needs superior knowledge to hold and use bitcoin. The few developers would be by themselves with a failed project donāt you think? Might as well call it BitDevCoin.
I'm not starting anything, just observing, you simply don't seem technical enough to make relevant analogies (so far in this convo).
Nobody needs technical knowledge to hold bitcoin, but it does help in order to have technical discussions about software development.
Specifically: I am talking about the team they have at Ocean with Datum and Knots. They align with how I feel the world should be.
Can I ask a wild question?
Why donāt Devs want to work with them?
> They align with how I feel the world should be.
Unfortunately "feelings" alone doesn't produce good software.
> Why donāt Devs want to work with them?
That's the question you need to investigate further, from what I can tell no one wants to work with Luke.
Judas betrayed Jesus didnāt he?
Not everyone was built to be great nor understand greatness.

Virtue signal more why don't you.
I swear that I am soooo close to learning how to code from all of this b.s. going on this round.
I usually donāt allow my emotions to get altered by non sense, but hearing that people donāt want to work with Luke as if he is ābad for bitcoinā is a testament to their short comings. NOT HIS.

Whatever you gotta tell yourself to sleep at night when using knots.
