NVK of Coinkite rejoins me to talk about attitudes on Bitcoin development and consensus changes. We discuss how âossificationâ is commonly thrown around as a term, but maybe there is a better term. âExtreme conservatismâ? We talk:
What is ossification?Â
What about bug fixes?Â
What changes would NVK be interested in?Â
How many people will use Bitcoin?Â
What the market is focused on
Itâs not your chain
