I hope that the people arguing that this implies more than it does and the people arguing that this implies less than it does both realize that they are retarded. I don't know who if anyone in Bitcoin is compromised, but pretending that this doesn't validate that substantial efforts to compromise Bitcoin are a serious, active, long standing threat are retarded. The deeper point about compromise is that it can rarely be proved but is always happening to some degree. Moreover, it's not a binary state. "Hey kid, take this briefcase of money and destroy Bitcoin or we will show everyone what you did with the monkey"... Probably rarely happens. But there are an infinite number and levels of ways to apply and respond to incentives. The conversation should stay open but also reasonable. Both sides should stop being retarded so we can actually navigate the threat

you know what the most important action bitcoiners need to take, to defend bitcoin? B U I L D nobody has any excuse anymore. anyone with basic computer skills can build apps that work with bitcoin. claude opus can fling out a bitcoin wallet in a matter of a few hours. why did segwit and taproot and all that spammy shitcoinery happen to bitcoin? because the hodlers just buy it, and hold it, and are doing nothing to protect this use case by B U I L D I N G.
