Bolt12 was the first real obvious astroturf attack on Lightning beyond simple FUD narratives, now all the fork proposals are part of that Lightning FUD in promoting fake L2's built for surveillance via coordinators
Someone with a lot of resources really doesn't want you raw-dogging Lightning...
“The price of liberty is eternal vigilance”. Thomas Jefferson, or some of the same standing.
