34 sats \ 2 replies \ @cascdr 4 Mar \ on: DISCUSS: ETH is more decentralized than BTC when it comes to client diversity bitcoin
Point taken about the fact that Bitcoin should improve based on valid criticism no matter where it comes from. Ideally we would have more decentralization on clients. Better yet, more literacy so that even if there are few clients, everyone knows exactly how they work and can detect/prevent attacks and vulnerabilities.
But the Bankless guys can absolutely and forever go fuck themselves. No one runs their own node on ETH because they did not prioritize decentralization at all whatsoever. Who gives a single fuck about the client diversity if no one runs pleb nodes anyway?
That's like saying the guy that buys healthy groceries 100% of the time but lets it rot and eats McDonald's instead is healthier than the guy that eats 1 or two home cooked meals with non-fiat food. Give me a break. It's just FUD so they can keep pumping their bags. I would love a real bitcoiner to debate those losers.

The bankless guys definitely max out the arrogant scale. But who better to criticize you than your enemies? The lack of client diversity is a curious situation in bitcoin and the fact that they can say what they said, even if it's not apples to apples, is important.

  1. People that want to fund FOSS for bitcoin should seriously consider funding and using any projects that provide alternatives to bitcoin core AND encourage companies like S9 Labs & Umbrel support alternatives like Knots. That includes everyone in this thread.
  2. Bankless should be taken to the wood shed on this argument. It is so laughable. No one runs an ETH node on sovereign hardware. Period. No one gives a fuck how many flavors of node clients they have bc there's no plebs running nodes or participating in mining/staking. Because they fundamentally want a centralized system over there and will force validation software to be industry grade. Compare that with bitcoin. Concern Troll of the century.
