🚨 Bitcoin Dev's "Trust Someone" Quote Sparks Chaos

A firestorm erupted after reports claimed Bitcoin Knots maintainer Luke Dashjr backed a hard fork to create a committee with power to censor transactions and alter the blockchain.

The alleged quote that started it all: "Either Bitcoin dies, or we trust someone."

Dashjr’s response? He called it a total fabrication, stating “There is no hard fork.”

The drama highlights the core conflict:

Knots: Wants stricter rules to filter data like Ordinals.

Bitcoin Core: Advocates for a neutral, permissionless network.

Even his critic, Taproot Wizards' Udi Wertheimer, defended him, calling the report a "malicious hit piece."

This is a battle for Bitcoin's soul: neutrality vs. intervention.
