I'd probably do some cursory review of the fork diff to understand how the new dependancies are being sourced. A niche fork is always going to get less review and a bitcoin focused fork is going to be a target.

Yeah, the niche / unpopular distro will definitely be more scary unless. Would sort of rather have the software stack be replicated by guix or nix, or even Gentoo where I can build everything myself.
