💥 OP_Return debate sparks fork fears 💥

[chainsniff]

The push to remove the OP_Return data cap — despite community backlash — has stirred memories of the Bitcoin block size wars that created Bitcoin Cash (BCH).

Some warn a similar rift could emerge if the community continues to fracture:

Core devs want flexibility for non-monetary data.

Critics argue it threatens decentralization & bloats the chain.

With Bitcoin Knots gaining traction, are we seeing the first cracks of a new fork?

Feels like déjà vu of the block size wars… if OP_Return debates split the community again, we could see another BCH-style rift.

Core devs pushing for more flexibility makes sense, but ignoring backlash could repeat history. Bitcoin governance is never simple.
