I'm low-key fascinated by Luke-Jr's craziness, but it's kinda sad because apparently he has multiple kids.

he opposed "big blockers" (the proposal to increase the Bitcoin block size beyond 1MB) because he lives in rural Florida and has bad bandwidth. (The big blockers subsequently created "Bitcoin Cash", tried to get it the ticket BCC, but did not succeed because that was used by scamcoin Bitcoin Connect. They also missed registering /r/BCH, which was instantly squatted on by anti-Bitcoin Cash people)
in the beginning of Covid he washed all fresh produce in bleach
he proposed Tonal as Bitcoin nomenclature: https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Tonal_Bitcoin (1 bitcoin-bong, anyone?)
he lost a lot of coins in a scam in early 2023: https://gerikson.com/m/2023/01/index.html#2023-01-02_monday_01

Since BTC went mainstream these people just don't have as much impact anymore.

it’s always fucking Florida

there’s something quaint about the pure crankishness behind blocking an important change to a global network you think will revolutionize everything because you might not be able to mine at home with your 1 Mbit of shitty Comcast cable internet and for whatever reason don’t want to move into even a cheap data center. just shitty mining on a shitty connection forever and fuck everybody else. when ex-crypto folks tell me the block size decision was when crypto got too stupid for them, I didn’t imagine it’d be this level of stupid

being good at computor turns out not to correlate with any other personality characteristic
