I wanted to ask a technical question 🙋‍♂️. Let’s say Bitcoin core fails and everyone runs Knots. What if someone creates an implementation of Core that was intentionally trying to be as bad of a node as possible. It opened OP_RETURN up, intentionally trying to spam CSAM, and Malware (haha maybe just Core 30). Say 100 people ran this implementation and had enough mining hash power to mine a few blocks full of the worst garbage you can think of. Wouldn’t the Bitcoin Network have this same problem that the ‘anti spam’ group is worried about. Is this inevitable to happen even if everyone who wants Bitcoin to succeed unites together?
