This person is not a Bitcoiner.

Gloria Zhao becomes the First Woman to hold Bitcoin Core
Gloria began contributing to Bitcoin Core in 2020 shortly before she graduated from UC Berkeley at the end of the year. Giving up a chance to work full time at Google after a college internship, she decided to jump into contributing to Bitcoin Core full time thanks to funding from Brink with contributions from the Human Rights Foundation and Spiral.

Fucking social justice warrior lefty from Berkeley. The last person you want to have ability to push out commits to Bitcoin Core.
Check the people who finance her. What a fucked up idea in the first palace to give people roles in core that have just left college and no personal reasonable stack in btc. Only financed by wall street and other shitcoiners. Core is completely captured. We need a reliable alternative asap.
True, Core is completely captured and their actions speak vlolumes.
Core devs deliberately allowed inscriptions spam by rejecting Luke's fix in 2024.
They are now using that as excuse that "spam can't be reduced" or that "spam already exists on Bitcoin because of inscription spam".
That is dishonest and an internal attack on Bitcoin. Core devs deliberately allow spam and then defend it like shitcoiners.
They also maliciously changed the definition of datacarriersize.
Bitcoin Knots has fixed those issues.

This is the difference.
My thoughts exactly. It makes perfect sense now. Makes perfect sense why she makes fun of Luke for his religious beliefs as well
I think it makes sense because there are many leftists who want the government to keep their money monopoly. Just look at Elizabeth Warren.
Left-wingers want to destroy Bitcoin by defaming and weakening it to ensure fiat continues to dominate.
Right-wingers want to destroy Bitcoin by appropriating it with the government and banking cartel.
Two different methods but the exact same outcome.
Dude, thanks for posting this. Had no idea.
These are the silver lining reasons I'm grateful for the endless core/knots debate. Things always surface in those processes, and its been a spotlight of sorts to show us what is not well with the state of bitcoin.
Bearish for now but hopefully for the best in the long run
Yes, it looks like Core has been more or less fully captured by venture capital. But I agree with you that we will come out stronger from this. It's time to create 1-2 more alternatives to Core and Knots. Thus, one group of bad actors like Core devs can never again undermine Bitcoin's principles that simply.
Yes.
i really wish that the craig wright drama didn't happen. laanwj and some of the others might have stayed, instead of this power vacuum happening in the early 2020s. but all is said and done and at least we have core vs knots to wake us up about it, for better or worse.
