The reason devs want to add CTV, op cat, and other unessential changes Bitcoin is because they really don't understand the mantra: "if it aint broke, don't fix it"
They will tweak their Linux setup 500 times like a masocist for fun, before just wiping the whole thing and starting again.
We probably shouldn't change bitcoin again anytime soon imo
Gotta look busy somehow… if you got a grant, what else are you going to do… 🤣
"If it works, don't mess with it."
I’m no programmer and I’m all in on bitcoin but I view the scaling problem as a serious concern. If 99.9% of people can never self custody, then im not sure what problem it really solved. Then it will have the same problem that gold does.
With 2-3 sat/byte TX confirming daily, it is evident to me that blockspace demand is pretty low even though user numbers are theoretically growing. I think that current scaling solutions are easily keeping up with demand
