BITCOIN SEASON 2: Inside the Mind of Luke Dashjr, Bitcoin's Most Polarizing Developer

We expose controversial Bitcoin developer Luke Dash Jr, his extreme religious and political views, geocentric beliefs, and how his Bitcoin Knots client reflects his authoritarian ideology while claiming to save Bitcoin. Today we dive deep into the controversial world of Luke Dash Jr, the Bitcoin developer behind Bitcoin Knots who believes the sun orbits the Earth, supports monarchy over democracy, follows an obscure Catholic sect with only 30,000 followers worldwide, and thinks using Bitcoin in ways he disapproves of should be criminal. We expose his authoritarian development practices and why Bitcoiners should know exactly who they're endorsing.
