You know what else would be really bad for Bitcoin? Having gatekeepers to differentiate what is allowed on chain and what is not. Especially fanatical statists taking up theead in this. We need a middle ground.

Bitcoin is permissionless. The protocol doesn’t care about your definition of “money.”
If miners include it and users pay for it, it’s valid.
Nodes choose their own policies. That’s not censorship — that’s markets.
#Bitcoin isn’t a bank. It’s a neutral settlement network.
The implied meaning is stronger than “just filters.” It’s about who gets to decide what Bitcoin is for. Filters are coded by a gatekeeper.
Every individual has to make a moral choice. It’s an obligation. If enough people make the right choice everything will be fine. I chose #bitcoin to be money. And I chose #Bip110.
You don’t tell me what to do.
Bitcoin is money
