I don't understand this. Despite all that's been said recently to the contrary, Luke is a very smart guy. He, more than most, knows the almost guaranteed result of this endeavour, yet it looks like it's happening. I might be in the minority, but I think bitcoin needs Luke around, if for no other reason than to serve as a counterbalance. He could accomplish much more by sticking around. He made his point, but his cause failed. He should accept that and keep fighting for what he believes in, without creating a meaningless new shitcoin.

I'm not sure. Look at Mara mining. Remember this:
https://ir.mara.com/news-events/press-releases/detail/1239/marathon-digital-holdings-becomes-the-first-north-american-enterprise-miner-to-produce-fully-aml-and-ofac-compliant-bitcoin
Nation states are more involved with the industry now than they were back then. Also, Mara didn't have the hash rate to ignore sentiment. Foundry does. Big institutional miners just care about the bottom line and fiat profits. They won't give a second thought to miner policy.

2026-08-09 14:22:05 UTC

- reply

Foundry, Ant Pool and F2pool control almost all the hashrate. They are all controlled by either the U.S. government or China. All the big US miners require KYC/AML compliance, and very few allow individual miners to control their own hash rate. The only exceptions I can think of are Ocean and DMND. Stratum v2 may eventually improve things, but that's a long time off. I agree that adoption is critical. I just think miming decentralization is as important.

Selling our books for sats is like therapy. These are dark days if you have been living the bitcoin life for more than a little while. The coldcard disaster, core/knots, the ecash hard fork... Selling a book or two and getting paid in bitcoin, no matter if the profits are tiny or non existent, is thrilling. Like the sun breaking through the clouds. Baby steps paving the way for bitcoin to fulfill its destiny as money. That's the best feeling in the world.

I don't think mining pools and exchanges care one way or another. The real question is whether the 110 game theory plays out as they claim it will at the last second, as the mercenary miners try to outthink each other.

2026-07-30 15:00:17 UTC

- reply

I'm not angry at you. No one really knows how this will play out. Maybe you're right. We'll see. I honestly don't think many 110ers think it will in any way prevent spam. It seems they just don't want to roll out the welcome mat. Moreover, I bet the spam issue is secondary for many 110ers, who believe the important thing is to roll back core's power.

2026-07-30 13:31:48 UTC

- reply

The answer seems to be the assumption that one side is smaller in number and completely committed, not caring about profit and willing to tear the house down, while the other , much more conventionally powerful side, doesn't really care about a petty technical argument and will just act to ensure their flow of fees continue. If they sense a sea change from their competitors at the last minute, they don't want to be caught without a chair when the music stops.

2026-07-30 13:07:28 UTC

- reply

All miners and exchanges run nodes. That's true. The game theory on the other side, though, seems to be that miners and exchanges don't really give a damn about all this core/knots bip110 crap, and will just look to maximize their profits. Do they really give a damn which side wins?
