BIP-110 goes live as Bitcoin faces an intense debate over nodes, miners, chain splits and the possibility of a hard fork. Samson Mow breaks down the competing arguments, the game theory behind a potential split, and what Bitcoin holders should actually do if things escalate. Fear is everywhere, but understanding the incentives matters more than choosing a side based on emotion.

Wishful thinking that these hackers would snip some wires while they're in there. France's tax bureau is becoming a trusted partner to wrench attackers all over Europe! Important reminder that adversarial thinking goes way beyond the consensus level. Stay private, stay safe, and thanks for the quality news to start my Monday!

Thanks for producing quality content as always. Although Jim completely misses the mark on Bitcoin - that "bubble" is only just beginning - his insight into private equity and credit markets is unmatched.

    Fuck you, Mow, you sold-out suit-simping cunt. Purposefully misreprenting the monetary incentives b/w miners who pocket these marginal spam fees and nodes who host a non-marginal pile of shit for the rest of time. NODES ARE DECENTRALIZATION. Not your miner buddies you touch peepees with at social mixers, nor your wallets that abstract away this nitty-gritty, nor Core and their low-T DEIcoin dreams. Grow a fucking pair.
