Bitcoin's Emergency Fork Proposal: Biggest Divide Since the Blocksize Wars | Roundup Debate

In this episode, we’re joined by Shinobi, Joakim Book, and Aaron van Wirdum to discuss the emergency Bitcoin soft fork proposal that could split the network. We debate whether the proposal’s “legal and moral” justifications hold any weight, question who defines harm within Bitcoin, and explore how technical limits, cultural rifts, and power struggles will shape Bitcoin’s future. Enjoy!
