One more observation: bitcoin blockchain is too transparent and flows are already censored at the KYC exit rails (with questionable accuracy). All the shady transfers can and do happen on Liquid and Lightning networks. Controlling the miners will yield the state very little.

A soft fork is a 51% attack on Bitcoin

First off, there's no stations. If you have something to say about the topic you should definitely post it. Honestly, I really appreciated your comment because it reminded me of that conversation with SwapMarket (which I couldn't find). Please do post when you feel like it!

I agree that there is a lot of scrutiny on Bitcoin. But I wanted to try to think about how we create little buckets for ideas like `51% attack` or `censorship`, but in reality things are often very fluid -- in this instance, I'm trying to make the case that 51% attack and soft fork aren't so different from each other as far as what actually happens on the chain. It's just one is done cooperatively and another perhaps isn't.
