Still listening to #HijackingBitcoin. I got into Bitcoin in 2016, right as the block size war was coming to a head, but I heard almost nothing about it. I heard about BCH, but I always thought it was a spinoff that was more separate. I'm learning a lot about the real history of the development.

I'm still not a big block Bitcoiner, but I do agree that the core devs did unnecessarily prevent the block size increases that were actually intended. We still need secondary layers, too, because the use and the verifiability need some level of decentralization.

Who else has read or listened to the book?
