@ODELL , I genuinely want your view on this, especially after seeing this post. Around 20% of nodes have upgraded to v30 within six months. A significant portion of the community opposes the change, and several developers themselves say it has had virtually no meaningful impact on the blockchain’s data volume. Yet there has been no visible sign of reconsideration or willingness to reassess. If the practical effects are minimal, adoption remains low, and resistance is clearly evident, what explanation, other than ego or control, would justify continuing to push it forward? And in your reasoning, how is this meaningfully different from the dynamics we see around the BIP110 proposal?

Core overstepped by loosening default relay policy amid disagreement and this proved the concensus rules need to change to overcome the vulnerability of the core team being socially attacked

If you would want to attack Bitcoin, you would attack every part of the network (dev, miner, node). Since you cannot stop or control it, you would damage it as much as possible. One such method is the age old "divide and conquer" tactic. Some people are very good at this. And to me it looks exactly like that. Today we have a lot of group infighting, which damages the whole Bitcoin network. Don't let yourselves be divided! P.S. If you observe your personal reaction to something and it evokes strong emotions, you are probably being manipulated.
