Episode notes

Giacomo Zucco joins the Bitcoin Infinity Show to talk about why the BIP-110 soft fork attempt failed, what an economic node actually is, and why running a node was never the vote most Bitcoiners believed it to be. He unpacks the mythology that grew around the UASF and SegWit, explains why the Bitcoin Core v30 relay policy change triggered the whole fight, and argues that a single satoshi of added supply would destroy Bitcoin's monetary credibility permanently. Giacomo also gives his own account of resigning from the Ocean mining pool board and rejoining it, the Tether connection, and why he expects state actors to eventually come for Bitcoin's hashrate rather than its code.
