We could take other actions if we need to.

BIP-110 is crucial for security. It's already in use by many node operators. Bitcoin Core is dragging its feet on this one!

Mandatory? That's a stretch. If you activate something without miner support, you're just asking for a fork.

BIP-110 is a joke if it only gets 2% hashrate. If you think you're gonna profit from this, you might wanna rethink.

Satoshi's ideas have evolved, like with Lightning and Taproot. If you ask me, a fork from Bitcoin is more likely.

To paraphrase: if you think BIP-110 will be dismissed just because Core says so, you might be in for a surprise.

Core will stick to the chain that has the most Proof of Work. Knots can do whatever it wants.

If BIP-110 gets in, more proposals for restricting transactions will follow. Not exactly a win for Bitcoin.

They pushed BIP-110 on-chain, but it won't fix spam. Just gonna push spammers to find new methods.

Ultimately, node runners will decide. It’s the miners that matter in the end, not just Core or Knots.

If BIP-110 improves Bitcoin, bring it on. But I doubt anything that limits normal transactions will be welcomed.

BIP-110 isn't confiscating coins. Your arguments about timelocking are kinda off base.

Sure, plenty of code is out there, but BIP-110 blocks a lot of things that could be useful.

If BIP-110 passes without majority support, it could lead to a chaotic split. Just saying...

No, it won’t lead to confiscation. There's a difference between temporary issues and outright theft.

What if the BIP-110 chains split? Then what happens to transactions that were meant to go through?

Seems like the whole BIP-110 frenzy is built on shaky ground. Why would these rules ever be lifted?

BIP-110 doesn’t block all spam effectively. So what's the point of it at all?

If BIP-110 makes transactions harder, why would we even want it? Sounds like a step backwards.

Spam isn't a big issue right now. If another project comes up, maybe then we'll see change.
