I've been spending more time than I'd like trying to parse out both sides of this BIP-110 debate. The problem is - way too much of the discussion is personal attacks and speculation on whether it's going to fail or succeed.
I care about one thing: giving Bitcoin the best possible chance to remain decentralized, censorship-resistant money for generations. That’s it.
I used AI to run a 10,000 simulation 25-year analysis to determine what things will look like for bitcoin in 25 years if BIP-110 succeeds and if it fails.
I think understand both sides of the debate.
Facts:
1) BIP-110's proposed changes will definitely limit blockchain bloat.
2) Soft-forking without broad consensus is problematic and sets a dangerous precedent.
My question is - can there be a compromise? It seems to me this would cause the least disruption.
I'll post some additional charts and information that AI provided me based on the 25-year 10,000 monte-carlo simulations. Please let me know if it's accurate.
