If Jameson Lopp is worried about ossification being the death of Bitcoin, he should have been pressuring the devs to fix the inscription bug. Instead he followed his shitcoiner instincts and exploited the bug.
If users lose confidence in the devs, we end up with ossification.

After all that gaslighting about miner centralization, fee estimation, and ineffectiveness of filters. We finally get a mask off moment. This is the real reason Core hates filters.

Bitcoiners have an incomplete understanding of game theory. While it is true that in single-turn games malicious agents fair better than cooperative agents, this is flipped on its head for multi-turn games. Cooperative actors outperform malicious ones handily. Bitcoins treat everything as a single-turn game. It's really not. The real world is multi-turn.

When you say "But Pieter Wuille said . . .", I hear "Chaincode Labs employee said . . .".
While I respect Pieter Wuille, he has been wrong before. He incorrectly thought SegWit had to be a hard fork until Luke Dashjr told him it could be done as a soft fork.
Cite him if you like but I read his entire post and there is nothing new in what he's saying. It's the same old debunked arguments we've heard dozens of times. At least if he was offering something new, something I hadn't considered before, I would find his input valuable even if I disagreed with his conclusion. He has to maintain the company line. I'm not even sure he wrote that post.

I believe Knots is actually slightly older than Core (by a few days). Filtering out valid txs is how we got rid of garbage like Satoshi Dice, Colored Coins, Counterpary, OMNI, and many other stupid projects. I say, make running a node fun again. Enrage the shitcoiners. Make them rage quit like Vitalik did.

It depends on what you mean by fork. It has multiple meanings in this context. Knots is fully compatible with Core. The Core apologists know that Core's actions are indefensible so they must attack Knots with FUD. The MIT license thing might be part of the problem.

Ok, let me make something clear. Whether or not they are bribed is irrelevant. What is relevant is they are merging PRs most Bitcoiners don't want. Lying about it.

Oswald was NOT CIA. He was monitored by the CIA and the FBI. This is often talked about like it proves CIA involvement in his crime. All it proves is that the CIA was interested in him. He tried to defect to USSR. He was an outspoken Marxist and Castro supporter. I would find it more suspicious if the FBI and CIA were not monitoring him. It only takes one gunman to kill someone
