I used to watch every video that Matthew put out. But honestly until the knots / core debate isn’t front and center of every video, I going to take a break. I’m not in the knots camp and I don’t feel like the arguments against core are being made in good faith. I’ll be back again eventually.

Excuse the guy for speaking up about an existential threat for the very thing he's using to save for his future and the future of his family. Pay attention, this op_limit issue can make it too expensive for normal people to run nodes. Without these nodes bitcoin is no longer decentralized, and it can be co-opted to become a proof of stake network - change the code - that no longer serves you and protect your purchasing power.

If bitcoin can be killed by a mempool policy change — not even a consensus level change — then it was never going to succeed long term. I want bitcoin to succeed. I don’t think this change is nearly as big a deal as it’s been made out to be. I’m just tired of all the hyperbolic language around it.
