which got basicaly monopolized by BlockStream and Bitcoin
Can you explain this for me?  Bitcoin Core is a project with dozens of people. One of the main developers of Bitcoin Core is a founder of Blockstream. And this is "monopolized"? Please, help me understand what you're thinking here.

Meanwhile, the developers of other implementations just don't bother to tell you about their business partnerships at all. Makes me sick.
It is now useful for Blockstream to block expansion to 2MB so there is greater need for Lightning.  They monopolized Core because their de facto 'veto' vote has stopped Mike Hearn and others from going down a road that permits scalability without the Blockstream privately owned solution.

Look, you guys got found out.  The community isn't that stupid.  Knock off the bullshit.
