Yeah, you unblocked me later because you're desperate for engagement. You done goofed.

It was also a process of governance discovery.
Big blockers really wanted there to be a simple process for making consensus changes and we're banking upon miners being the Schelling point for consensus.
Unfortunately for them, crypto anarchy ain't that simple.

The irony from the Knotzi drama is that by overreacting to "ivory tower elitism" they will actually create ivory tower elitism by signaling to developers that they should stop wasting time trying to build bridges with puritanical fools.

Bitcoin's continued development, if it continues, will be driven forward by masochists. 🫠

2026-02-04 22:40:17 UTC

- reply

Yes, it's important to do the logical thing even if a bunch of illogical Puritans are against it.
Puritans hate when people dare do things of which they disapprove. That ethos doesn't mesh well with permissionless systems.
Puritans are gonna have a bad time in perpetuity, and it's their own doing for allowing themselves to get upset.

2026-02-04 20:41:57 UTC

- reply

Oh I fully accept that Puritans exist. Such views have been a thing for centuries.
Being a Puritan isn't retarded in and of itself. Thinking that your tiny Puritan cult can exert enough power to change the Bitcoin protocol is the retarded delusion.
I realize nothing I say will change those folks' minds, so I'm just going to have fun accurately predicting the future so that I can refer back to my prognostications when they fail.

2026-02-04 20:37:32 UTC

Because I've exhausted what can be learned from those projects. Thus they also became boring.
The short version is if there's not much innovation / new stuff happening in an ecosystem then there's not much to learn.
There's far more going on in the nostr ecosystem than the bitcoin ecosystem these days.

Hilarious how desperate you are, building a theory based upon an assumption that someone would mistype "Adam" as "Andy."
Regardless, all of your strained ad hominems are irrelevant in the context of the spam debate. Adam's reputation, whether it be good or bad, has no bearing upon the debate.
This is all just cannon fodder for your delicious drama vlogging 😘

The question is if you're going to ignorantly spin your wheels crying that you don't like it or are you going to realize that people are going to do things you dislike on censorship resistant networks, thus it's a waste of time trying to stop them.
