"calling it as soft fork seems disengenuous" You can do better than this "Hard fork" and "soft fork" are well-defined technical terms. Either can cause a chain split This was explained thousands of times to the RDTS/Knotsi crowd in recent months, on Twitter and in their Telegram group chat. But they were told by Liar @Luke Dashjr that "hard" and "soft" mean "split" and "no split" If you want to talk about controversy, and consensus, and chain splits, please do

> "Hard fork" and "soft fork" are well-defined technical terms if freezing bitcoin is a soft fork then it’s a meaningless distinction 🤷‍♂️
Dathon Ohm's soft fork will, if they are crazy enough to activate, cause a chain split The only way they can avoid a split is if they get more than 50% of hashrate But - in my opinion - they won't get 51% of hashrate and therefore we'll have a textbook example of a chain split caused by a softfork. It will be a good opportunity for you to learn how bitcoin works There is no debate on this, and therefore I will not waste time with you on this thread again. This is Nostr, not X or Telegram, and I expect higher standards You are a disgrace, lying to the plebs like this
I didn't say anything about being for or against freezing coins Contention around this broader quantum topic may cause chain splits, depending on various factors. Contentious forks, hard or soft, can cause chain splits depending on the distribution of hash rate and other factors
Soft fork is soft fork. The fact that you have some emotion associated with it doesn't change that.
