Interested to hear Luke’s thoughts on that thread. 👆
This drivechain system seems to a private group of miners passing messages to each other, storing data in the base chain. They seem to be following the “rules”.
The drivechain proposal is overly complicated (with unknown long term consequences), but probably unstoppable if all current nodes will accept the data.
Let’s hope this is benign because if following the protocol rules is an attack, then bitcoin is fundamentally broken.
