All the good minds and cryptographers have left Bitcoin. What remains is an empty echo chamber.

Truth is these problems start with lack of vision and long-term roadmap, not with the processes themselves.

And the Bitcoin Core monopoly created this situation; one coin, one
client, one vision. And the inevitable infighting for ultimate power.

Really if we want to go down this route, there should be a long period
of self reflection about where the problems began rather than patching
some process and moving on.

I propose Bitcoin Core is dissolved as the official Bitcoin project.

Nonsense, as it is not the official Bitcoin pr= oject. There is no such thing.

The community is free to elect their preferred ve= rsion of Bitcoin.

Individuals have voted wi= th their feet and are free to continue to do so. It's anarchy, I tell y= ou!
=C2=A0
And most=C2=A0importantly, Bitcoin developers commit to a fully specced st= andard that
all implementations move towards using.

Who decides the spec? Perhaps... a committee of some sort?
