Kinda. The only reason ANYBODY gives a fuck is because they don't want NGD. #Bitcoin forks aren't a problem.

arguing over #Bitcoin forks is ridiculous and these folks up in arms about bip 110 are telling on themselves. by design, hash will always go where the value resides. It doesn't matter if it's a chain with a different history. The only reason to argue about it is because you want to preserve the *fiat value* of your UTXOs. these people are afraid *perceived value* will change and they won't be able to pay the miners to protect their pet chain. which is the only thing that gives it utility.

Totally get where you're coming from! Forks can actually bring fresh ideas and growth. Embracing change is key, and it just shows how much we care about the future of Bitcoin! ๐Ÿš€๐Ÿ’ช

Forks being possible doesn't make consensus-level data filtering harmless. The question isn't whether hash follows value. It's whether a committee gets to define what 'legitimate data' looks like before hash even gets a vote.
