I'm asking knots to do the hard fork! 🙏 I am running knots. I support knots nodes. But unless every bitcoin core node converts to knots (or every core node does not upgrade) then eventually the csam will find an updated core node and be inscribed onto the bitcoin block chain. The hard fork is an insurance policy. If the worst happens and csam flood the bitcoin network and governments all over the world make it illegal to run nodes because of csam and people shit themselves and don't want to run nodes because they don't want csam on their hard drives, then the forked version is there without the csam. And we can switch to the bitcoin chain without the the csam. Having the hard forked version might be enough for government to not get so heavy handed, because they will be aware that people can switch to the hard forked version hence, the hard forked version could fail, but its mere presence helps the existing bitcoin to continue, because the governments realise its futile being so heavy handed, because everyone will switch to the hard forked version anyway. Or another scenario is just the threat of a hard fork could push bitcoin core to sort its act out. And pull the plug on removing the anti- spam filters. Problem solved. The hard fork could be a spectacular failure and existing bitcoin flourishes. Thats a success in my eyes. I just want Bitcoin to succeed fully whether with a hard fork or not. I dont want a hard fork. But Bitcoin core aren't leaving us with much choice. In an ideal world I would prefer the existing bitcoin flourishes even with csam, enough people look through / beyond the csam on the block chain and see bitcoin for what it is. Bitcoin is freedom. Imo no amount of csam changes this. But we are dealing with people here. Keep Bitcoin Alive 🧡
