This week, we break down the escalating emergency soft-fork push inside the Bitcoin fork telegram channel, including the bans, inconsistencies, shifting activation plans, and the core dispute over whether a minority can (or should) restrict existing user behavior on Bitcoin. The panel dissects the technical, social, economic, and philosophical stakes, from property-rights violations to purity spirals, UASF fantasies, dangers of rushing consensus, and more. Enjoy!
