Good points. Even if you agree with knots, a single developer pushing to master and issuing releases with no review is insane. I don’t want to completely trust one guy.

The Bitcoin software doesn’t auto-update. If Knots ever goes rogue, we’ll move on from that too. This isn’t about picking a winner. It’s about refusing to pretend we have real choice when that choice is being shaped behind closed doors.

Right now, there are more eyes on Knots than ever. Any funny business would be spotted. What’s concerning is that Core has started censoring people when conflicts of interest are pointed out. They say we have choice. But everything that has been said so far points to the illusion of it.

The issue is who's inspecting the code to date?

It's not like knots is a brand new project with just one or two minor differences to core.

I've been playing with the idea of running knots for over a year now - I just wish there were more reviews of the code differences I could reference.

Yes solo maintainer.

And i appreciate luke for his work.

But this has been the main concern for years.

And i hear libre is trash gonna give it a go on secondary node

Even if there was one maintainer, but multiple code reviews that were publicly published - that would be a major step as moving forward towards OSS peer review is the only way we can reasonably look at knots as a real option.
