Big fan of Core up to v29, but v30 was merged too soon. Classic FOSS failure mode: ship first, debate later. A PR with 400+ downvotes and a sustained supermajority of NACKs should have paused. The worrying part is there has been no meaningful course correction.

The net result is people moving to Knots, which may be a good thing. It is more attack resistant over the long term, which is good for Bitcoin, and the market will likely price that in.
