Good interview, though given his position in the industry he’s too diplomatic. I’m more conspiratorially minded given the terrible arguments the Bitcoin Core developers have been using, which goes along with techniques used by the propagandists in our age working an angle and being deceptive. So I have no problem saying they’re compromised, and you can connect them to the companies looking to profit by this undermining of Bitcoin, along with hidden actors with a greater scheme to harm Bitcoin and Bitcoin node runners who ultimately limit Bitcoin being taken over by corporations in the space.
