Make your views heard. Are you blindly updating your node to the latest version of Bitcoin Core without paying the slightest bit of attention to what the code actually does? Do you compile the code yourself so you know exactly what your node is doing and know beyond all reason that you are expressing your own will? Or are you somewhere in the middle, where you give the recent changes a quick read but generally just go with the flow? Do you perhaps run a non-Core node because you don't agree with what Core are doing? Or do you not run a full node at all and just want to weigh in with your observations?
Overall, do you think Core are "
in control" of the Bitcoin network? Or do you think users are the ones who make the decisions?
now with core having what they desired. a network of core nodes that goes unopposed, so that as long as people continue to just sheep upgrade their nodes to the latest core release. core dont have to worry about hard forks no more. they can just do as they please and add what they like. yea i know some people dont want to be called sheep. after all they think they have become enlightened and 'woke' from the old boys club of fiat bankers. but have yet to realise they swapped one boys club for another
bitcoin has lost its diversity and lost its byzantine generals solution now that there is one general in charge of the rule change options.
bitcoins ethos and unique revolutionary feature has been lost. and so now people are questioning what is left for bitcoins utility/uniquness 'values' especially now the shephards herding the sheep want to deburden the bitcoin network by swaying the sheep into the commercial fields of LN and out of the organic fields of yesteryear known as the original ethos of bitcoin
It's also not the first time they've landed this accusation:
but right now no alternative brands that have their own proposals. just sheep following core
CORE are in command of such. and users are just distributed 'compatible' sheep of core because the CHOICE of brands(of full nodes that would allow opposition) has been removed
you'll see that things did change and anyone else was just sheep herded into the change activation via the "compatibility" trick where by not upgrading didnt actually prevent activation. thus people in the general community could not vote/veto/prevent the change.
And probably a few dozen other times, too.
I want to hear your views, because this accusation too often goes unchallenged. Maybe you've all got him on ignore, I don't know. Are you sheep? Or do you have a voice of your own? Does this user raise any valid points? Or is it merely trolling?
