Is this currently happening because I have no idea what people on Twitter are discussing.
Yesterday got to learn a new quantum computer thing will kill Bitcoin
And now a fork might kill Bitcoin
And Im still waiting for China banning Bitcoin again to kill Bitcoin.
Yes, It's that phase of the bull market, I guess.
I think the main concern now is that a fork designed to remove censorship resistance becomes more of a liklihood as more institutions get involved. Miners theoretically run the software for the chain that will get them the most profit, i.e. the chain the institutions want. And most people, especially those buying the ETFs etc. won't care or even realise what's happening. For this to work, I think institutions would need to hold a lot more of the supply. But the direction we're heading in indicates that it's likely to keep growing at a considerable rate.
Haven't listened to this one yet but it's probably a great listen that describes the issue

My node will not allow whatever anyone tries to do. Especially suits.
Your node can do whatever it wants, but that’s not the point…
I get all the fear and I get the argument but please don't underestimate all these psychopaths and crazies running nodes who would never go along with coinbase or whoever changing their rules, eventhough they alone might be more impactful than you or me or Lyn. Weird mountain men and women are Bitcoins super power.
As a weird mountain man, I never underestimate weird mountain men and women. Another important part of the analysis by nostr:npub1a2cww4kn9wqte4ry70vyfwqyqvpswksna27rtxd8vty6c74era8sdcw83a and nostr:npub1ug8c5wp6chs4xessrstq3mj0x0agkttey5xwk26632a2gw22de7qkfd9ry is that Bitcoiners who hold their own keys can move faster than large institutions and prices are determined at the margins, and I think this is an extremely important point.
Even though, it's better to make noise and get the word out there about this than to stick out heads in the sand and hope for the best. That's how they win.
I still need to watch the full version of this caus I'm not sure if Lyn spoke specifically about changes to censorship resistance, which I believe would be a more loosely held aspect, i.e. one in which holders would be more willing to forego as long as number still went up.
