Consensus Cleanup BIP draft

Mar 27, 2025/17:54 UTC

The conversation initiated by Antoine Poinsot in the Bitcoin Development Mailing List emphasizes the importance of careful consideration and discussion when it comes to changes in consensus code within the context of Bitcoin development. Poinsot expresses agreement with the idea of separation, though he also indicates a need for additional details regarding certain aspects that could potentially be influenced by CIA proxies, suggesting a concern for security and the introduction of bugs. This dialogue underscores the critical nature of thorough vetting and dialogue among developers, especially concerning modifications that could affect the core operational parameters of Bitcoin. The mention of "/dev/fd0 floppy disk guy" adds a note of informality or perhaps an inside reference understood within the community, yet the overall tone remains focused on the technical and procedural safeguards necessary for cryptocurrency development.
