Jack MallersHOST
Now, getting into sidechains and stuff, in my opinion, not totally worth our time, but it's like a separate layer, okay? It's a separate layer, not Bitcoin itself.
Jack MallersHOST
Why would you build another blockchain? Why does Liquid exist? What was the point of building it? Well, the point was, what if we want to bring something new to Bitcoin, new features, new capabilities, without having to change Bitcoin itself? Okay, so this was the core idea in 2014 when the team at Blockstream, so you can see the names here on the right, Adam Back, Matt Corallo, Luke Dash Jr., I mean, Gregory Maxwell's on here, Andrew Pulcher's on here, Peter Woola.
Jack MallersHOST
I mean, there's a lot of names that you'll recognize on here.
Jack MallersHOST
And to be clear, let me just say, I'm a huge fan of all of these gentlemen.
DJHOST
I mean, gosh.
DJHOST
Didn't Luke Dash Jr. get fired or resigned or something from Ocean?
MikeHOST
I mean, the whole thing's a catastrophe.
MikeHOST
He stepped away.
Vlad CosteaHOST
I want to ask you to reveal your number, but I also want to ask you if you've been following the conversation surrounding the Bitcoin forks.
Vlad CosteaHOST
Today, I think they switched from SHA-256 to Blake2 on the Luke Dash Jr. fork.
Vlad CosteaHOST
And there's also the cash fork, which is running on Alphanet right now, and it's going to launch on Halloween with the main net.
Vik SharmaGUEST
I haven't, I'll be honest with you.
LaurenHOST
but in private they're actually still holding their Bitcoin?
Mr. HODLPANELIST
So no one, no one has the balls to go all in on Luke Dash Jr. coin.
Mr. HODLPANELIST
I'm sorry.
Mr. HODLPANELIST
I don't think ...
Mark ErhardtGUEST
He's not banned.
Mark ErhardtGUEST
His BIP editor privilege was removed.
Mark ErhardtGUEST
So he was a privileged user on the BIPs repository, which means that he was able to merge pull requests.
Mark ErhardtGUEST
Yes.
Mark ErhardtGUEST
He's always been a controversial figure.
Mark ErhardtGUEST
Gavin Andreessen had complained about his toxicity in 2012.
Mark ErhardtGUEST
And yes, he had made some good contributions in the past, and he was a very active editor in the past.
Mark ErhardtGUEST
But in the... last half decade, he has hardly done anything.
Thomas HuntHOST
They plowed forward for all of two blocks, and then they crashed and burned along with their ideas.
Thomas HuntHOST
Luke Dashjr was kicked off of some BIP writing group, and his reputation is pretty much tarnished, and it's all over.
Thomas HuntHOST
Jess C, what do you think about the BIP-110 NOTS issue and the idea of censorship versus dirty information in the blockchain, blah, blah, blah?
Jesse CervantesPANELIST
Um, it was very interesting.
MaxHOST
Hmm.
MaxHOST
Luke Jim Jo- I think it's probably about Luke Dash Jr. Jim Jones is probably like some sort of celebrity person, but it's probably like an old, like what old people would get or young people would get.
MaxHOST
We're in the middle-
QHOST
Yeah
Bernardo BragaHOST
Exactly.
Bernardo BragaHOST
Then you have to believe that all the money flowing from Wall Street to core developers and the weird stuff that Luke Dash Jr. has, uh, denounced, uh, there's nothing there.
Bernardo BragaHOST
Look the other way.
Bernardo BragaHOST
Then you have to believe that the security consortium, uh, out of nowhere led to, uh, by coincidence attacks, uh, inv- exploit, exploiting vulnerabilities at ColdCard and all the other softwares.

Bernardo BragaHOST
Uh, I understand the points.
Bernardo BragaHOST
I agree with Jack Cruz on a lot of his, uh, on, on his keynote in Prague, and I see the problems in Bitcoin Core, which deeply concerns me.
Bernardo BragaHOST
But every time I had a discussion with many developers or people who are more technical than me, they always brought it more to the technical aspects and how Luke's proposal, Luke Dash Jr., I'm, I'm mentioning, proposal was kind of flawed from the beginning because it was very concentrated within him, and it was irresponsible to do it so prematurely.
Bernardo BragaHOST
I do understand with that.
Neil JacobsHOST
It's usually things like this.
Neil JacobsHOST
You know, when we see these insane things like Luke Dash Jr. proposing hard forks, new proof of work mechanisms, like literally insane things.
Neil JacobsHOST
Imagine if you were a Luke Dash Jr. fan and he was your hero all these years, which I don't know why he would be anyone's, but let's say he was and now he's exiting Bitcoin.
Neil JacobsHOST
Now you have to do it because he's doing that.
Neil JacobsHOST
You should make the decision based on your understanding of Bitcoin.

Maurizio Pedrazzoli GrazioliHOST
And he's been buying.
Maurizio Pedrazzoli GrazioliHOST
He's been buying like crazy lately.
Neil JacobsHOST
Yeah, what I would say is it is interesting what he's doing, but again, the same way we said you shouldn't rely on someone like Saylor for your own conviction or Luke Dash Jr., you shouldn't rely on Grant Cardone either.
Jack SpirkoHOST
Right.
Jack SpirkoHOST
So what I mean by that is when this whole war came up and the miners supposedly colluded and attacked, right, this bullshit narrative that Cratter and Luke Dash Jr. and whatever have come up with, the-- what the miners collectively did was noth- we didn't do anything.
Jack SpirkoHOST
I'm a miner.
Jack SpirkoHOST
I own ASICs.
