Long time anonymous cypherpunk. In Bitcoin since the early days. I use different names and identities for each activity. This is my casual use nostr profile.
Nostr is a beautiful thing. Free speech without KYC, without limits on "unverified" or "new accounts" (the ability to make ephemeral identities is essential to privacy), no censorship. At the same time, users can mute certain topics or even individuals. Freedom is about opting in, and the same spirit is in line with users choosing what to see or not see instead of a centralized social media company making that decision on what to censor and what is spam or "mis-info". Even with those I disagree with, or view things differently than me, I value you (except for @Luke Dashjr who made himself an enemy of me). On free speech though, I value the ability of everyone to exercise their free speech, yes including Luke Dashjr. Nostr does for free speech, what Bitcoin does for money. We are building the future!
For the sake of those who might be annoyed by BIP110 popping up in their noster feed, I will stop spamming nostr with BIP110 stuff. I've already stated and made my case which you can find in my history. No need for me to post on that topic anymore.
The simple truth, is that Bitcoin is a system of proof-of-work, not proof-of-stake, not proof-of-node which can be sybil attacked. The case against #BIP110 is technically sound, and fact not opinion. But the "plebs" who are easily manipulated with various fallacies especially appeal to emotion and "protect the children" are being sady misled, and they will be screwing themselves by walking off a cliff in August when they fork themselves. Bitcoin uneffected, but those being misled will be effected. Either way, if BIP110 was a good idea, what is fact is that unless it has alot of hashrate, it simply becomes its own fork and should not be called Bitcoin, if BIP110 is better than Bitcoin in peoples opinion, then they are free to use BIP11-coin. But cannot call BIP110-coin Bitcoin if it forked (as it is planned to) instead of gaining majority hashrate. IF BIP110 was implemented with majority hashrate then yes it would still be bitcoin. For those of you who are pro-BIP110, you need to start dicussing what to call it. Maybe BitcoinMoney ? (BitcoinCash is already taken as a name)
@Luke Dashjr is a fake catholic who claims to be a real catholic. Much like how he is a fake bitcoiner who claims to be a real bitcoiner. The guy is in an alternate delusional reality on many things.
