Bitcoin Core Fork Proposed Amidst Governance Dispute

Bitcoin Core developer Samson Mow has proposed a potential fork as a solution for ongoing governance issues within the Bitcoin ecosystem. This move comes amidst increasing discord over the existing OP_RETURN policy, which dictates how arbitrary data is stored on the blockchain. Mow believes that this new governance model would ensure alignment between developer incentives and community needs. His proposal highlights the need for a robust framework to mitigate the influence of individual developer reputations. Implementation details remain under discussion.
