I’m not even saying that this alone provides a correct answer. I’m saying that this is a missing puzzle piece in the conversation. Some humility, contrition, and meditation on this will go a long way for you and possibly your supporters. View quoted note →

In hindsight, wasn’t Taproot a hostile fork? 1. Over 5 years later, hardly anyone uses it, except spammers. No major product market fit yet. 2. It was a “nice to have”, wasn’t a response to a threat (debatably like segwit was). 3. It ratcheted up the spam problem, which creates another problem now with another possible fork. If you supported Taproot, then what did you get wrong, such that you supported a hostile fork? Do you apologize? Before you get to anything else, it thinks it’s important that you ask yourself those two questions, then reflect on the answers.
