Initial reactions aren't always accurate, people's views change, and
science has its insurmountable way of convincing people. Gavin [1]
and others [2] now cite selfish mining as a concern in the block size
debate, and more importantly, the paper has been peer-reviewed,
cited, and even built-upon [3].

Let's elevate the discussion, shall we?

[1] Here's Gavin concerned about selfish mining:

[2] Here's Adam:
