Nietzsche was specifically talking about reading whitepapers for fake L2s, shitcoins, and arguing over worthless shitfork proposals that achieve absolutely nothing... because the dead weight among us doesn't want to pay for a Lightning channel or run a node. image

They won't stop until Bitcoin is as polluted with fake scam Layer 2's as Ethereum That's all the forks do... they don't add scale or security... they only add scam.
We just pushed a substantial update to http://shockwallet.app, including Apple Testflight and Android APK We're now a few phases into a more refined UI framework, as well as portable Lightning Addresses powered by Nostr Offers Hope to see you in Vegas!
"Core" has become a center of lobbying and activism, and has outlived it's usefulness as a code repository. Archiving Core would be best for everyone, whether you're for more changes, or for ossification. A nack from the Core repository today is perceived as a veto, causing new ideas to be under-explored or bikeshed. Simultaneously, Core's legacy puts it in a position upstream of blind downloads and a lack of discernment, making the politburo governing this repository a target for scammers and attackers. Every day the Core repo is not archived and disbanded is an attack on Bitcoin. Scatter into the wind smaller forks that compete on merit, and evict the squatters of Bitcoin's legacy.
Bitcoin's "scaling" limitations are not a function of it's throughput, but rather how many people or organizations will actually be able to afford the 5-6 digits worth of sats needed to not have to trust anybody.
