Adam Back Says Market Will Reject Imposed Views on Bitcoin

Blockstream co-founder Adam Back said attempts to impose personal views on Bitcoin would ultimately face market rejection, according to a BlockBeats report on the debate around the BIP110 fork.

Dispute over BIP110

The report said BIP110 encountered serious problems during its initial technical review. It also said supporters tried to advance the proposal without incorporating criticism or revising it. Those descriptions are attributed to the BlockBeats account of the dispute, rather than an independent technical audit.

Bitcoin’s immutability

Back referred to Francis Pouliot’s discussion of Bitcoin’s operating reality and mentioned the “BIG BITCOIN” meme as a way to help people understand the network’s immutability. The flash reports a governance argument and does not announce a code release, fork activation or market-price forecast.
