It took you a year to create a new website, logo and a donation button? With literally no code to speak of? This is what a grift looks like.

Is this a joke? Fork core and immediately ask for donations? I can understand wanting multiple implementations and forking the open source project that is bitcoin core to do something different to advance the protocol and then afterwards asking for donations to complete the idea or take it further and/or expand upon it. I can also understand wanting to be conservative, and wanting to work on older versions prior to v30 without more advanced SFs in the future, there's a market for that. But slapping a shiny new name, logo and website on a straight fork of core, with a donation button as the first thing you see, and where 2 of the 4 main supporters literally won't let you reply to their tweets unless you follow them... That looks a lot more like a virtue signal powered LARP begging for money than "multiple implementations".

Yep luke and mechanic got people really whipped up into a frenzy of emotion where literally nobody on that side is thinking with logic.

Satoshi is bad people?

Bitcoin is programmable money.

Then why even reply? Bitcoin being permissionless and censorship resistant is what makes it shine as a global money, that away and you're just left with a really shitty paypal.

Imagine being a bitcoiner and thinking the word permissionless is bad. Wow. Censorship resistance is one of the defining principles of bitcoin and always be.

Ah yes the politician that likes to flip flop back and fourth on his stance on 110 because he does zero technical research is wondering why the people who were against 110 might be against another core wrapper grift. Go figure.
