BIP110 vs UASF: Do the Suitcoiners Control Bitcoin?

BIP110 vs UASF: Do the Suitcoiners Control Bitcoin?

In this episode, I unpack the claim that BIP110’s failure proves corporate miners and suitcoiners now control Bitcoin. I walk through the real dynamics between miners and validating nodes, compare BIP110 to the UASF, and explain why broad consensus is strictly required to change Bitcoin’s rules. Ultimately, BIP110’s failure actually confirms Bitcoin’s defensive power structure rather than undermining it.
