Bitcoin-core pushed controversial changes in the face of widespread dissent and ongoing debate with the op_return mempool update, and have now DELISTED v30 and 30.1 because of a massive bug that somehow slipped through 2 versions and all the “best” review and testing.

If the current 5 Bitcoin-core maintainers don’t voluntarily step down then the uses will have to establish a new reference software for future update testing.

My contention in this conversation has been that YOU (as a public Bitcoin influencer) have a responsibility to either have a balanced guest list on your show about this issue, or go back to the previous guests who advocated for Bitcoin-core and confront them on the complete failure to catch this wallet removal bug.

If this bug happened with knots, the knots side would never hear the end of it. Yet here, we have excuses and cover immediately deployed just like a fucking government institution.

How many “spam apologists” has Kratter hosted on his show?

Kratter doesn’t do interviews bro. I honestly would like to believe you are still a good actor here.

Bitcoin core’s quality has been compromised, the unprecedented delisting of Core v30 proves that all the positives Murch, Lopp, and others claimed about the “decentralized review process” have failed.

We can speculate the reasons, but change is required regardless.

It’s not about knots, it’s about fixing or replacing the reference software project.
