RE: Is Bitcoin Governance Truly Decentralised? Should It Be?

in #bitcoin8 years ago

Agreed. In the end, the people who have invested the most time, money and energy into it will fight the most for it and enforce their vision. I believe this is why you see the miners, the exchanges, etc. having these meetings and pushing proposals forward.

Yes and since they have the most invested they are likely frustrated by the current stalemate even more than the regular user.

I completely agree. I believe that some of the large mining pools might expand their influence and get things done by sponsoring/hiring a Bitcoin developer to contribute to Core. This is how influence expands in the Linux space.
