Happy 5th #Bitcoin Independence Day!

This day in 2017 saw the end of the Blocksize Wars and, despite opposition from various corporate interests, the activation of Segwit via #UASF, one of the most important upgrades to the bitcoin protocol to date!

#No2X #BIP148

Never forget. #UASF #Bitcoin

In 2017, miners attempted to assert control over the #Bitcoin protocol, and failed thanks to #BIP148 / #UASF.

Later, exchanges attempted to assert control over the protocol, and failed again (#NO2X).

In 2021, developers attempted to assert control over the protocol by reverting to BIP9, and reintroducing and enforcing the miner veto, after the community came to consensus on BIP8.

It's not entirely clear if that failed or succeeded. But it should receive the same reaction: complete resistance.
