Any worry about unintended consequences is implied in the options available, for example if one was actually worried at all then they would simply put No.
Yah I mean the table is on the website 
Really happy with how this page is turning out.
A couple of observations so far:
-CTV has more clear technical consensus than any other op_code
-CAT has just slightly less consensus than CTV
-APO has the least technical consensus after CCV and PC.
-CCV still needs alot of evaluating
Thanks to all the developers who've voiced their opinion, we're getting new ones every day!

In an effort to reach some kind of rough technical consensus on covenant proposals we're calling on all bitcoin developers to please share your opinion.

In case you want to make hats or t-shirts.
Bitcoin only wants one thing, and that's to get bigger, to grow.
And it will.
But it doesn't care which environment it grows in, centralized or decentralized.
That part is up to us, how we steer bitcoin's future.
Really enjoyed nostr:npub1wnlu28xrq9gv77dkevck6ws4euej4v568rlvn66gf2c428tdrptqq3n3wr 's new video about CTV.
He clearly wants to help steer the covenants discussion to a more productive place which I think is great.
While I don't agree with everything in the video it's clear Mechanic can see the advantages of CTV and the importance of continuing to upgrade bitcoin.

Hard to do testing on Liquid since it's such a different codebase than bitcoin and hardly anyone uses it. This is why we have a testnet (now called signet) on bitcoin.
OP_CTV doesn’t improve on the 1-UTXO-per-user scaling limit

Peter is wrong plus you get alot more features with CTV than just utxo sharing.
No. Bitcoin is software, it must be upgraded for security and scaling purposes. It's not even close to being finished yet.
It's not bitcoin's fault that you didn't understand this when you put your money in it.
If upgrades scare you then you should have your money in a bank where you can have your hand nicely held.

Innovation often precedes widespread demand.

Nobody wanted an iPhone in 2001.

> what is preventing UASF?
UASF is last last resort. Instead of that efforts to combine multiple op codes including CTV into a package went underway, but if those can't gain traction either a UASF just for CTV may eventually be necessary.
For all the non-developers debating protocol changes on bitcoin please read the following to learn how software development actually works.
Remember that in order for bitcoin to succeed your enemies must be able to hold it as well.
This includes nation states.
Every cycle the ethereum scammers are out in full force with something new to sell you.
First with "the world computer" then ICOs, then DeFi, then NFTs.
Now their latest scam is DeSci.
Yah, decentralized science.
Stay as far away from this scam as you can.
Time in the market > timing the market, a phrase that you can break down into just one word.
Conviction.
This will also determine how long you can hold your bitcoin.
So how much conviction will you have? Well this depends on how much you are susceptible to your ego.
If you are more susceptible then you'll do less research, experience more fear during price drops, explore things like MSTR and altcoins, and ultimately care more about being right than being useful.
This is not the way.
Good luck.
Reminder: MicroStrategy owns 0 bitcoin.
They own coinbase BTC IOUs.

Guys relax, stop talking about hyperbitcoinization until we at the very least start flipping gold.
