Bitcoin Knobs (Knobbie)

Bitcoin Knobs is a fork of Bitcoin Core that takes flexibility a step further. Where others decide what is "safe" or "reasonable," we believe in maximum choice

@cryptoquick It's time we take our knobs into our own hands!

@Leishman Doesn't @AnchorWatch solve this problem?

I've been running Knots since long before it was cool because I wanted more control over my nodes.

I'm eagerly awaiting something like @BitcoinKnobs that gives me *even more* granular control over my nodes, but I'm unsure if that project is going anywhere...

Should I just fork Core and build it myself? (:

Ok Jarvis now use the digital matter theory to incentivize #bitcoin nodes & make it @BitcoinKnobs based to piss off both core & knots supporters while confusing the normies.

From the start the idea was and still is obviously a silly joke. I mean come on, a ridiculous nym, a fork of Bitcoin, I'm knot asking you to take it seriously, but Bip444 needs your help! For crying out loud @dathon_ohm is out there saving Bitcoin and has less followers than me!

Dr. Pepper Fork (soft drink fork). Potentially gave inspiration to other industries.

HTTP 444 response?
That's "knot standard"!

I'm going to use this OP_RETURN to ask for a raise! We are all clearly not being paid enough.

Users being able to configure their nodes knobs is not a sin.

@KevinoTech @stutxo @BitcoinKnobs It's a stupid joke.

I'm sympathetic to the view that users should be given the option to set filters more explicitly, but that also adds complexity and bad UI. Users would basically have to choose between a set of filters at startup, and most wouldn't understand what any of that even means. Additionally, users are still able to tweak the relevant config related to the recent OP_RETURN controversy.

It seems more problematic when a default is chosen if it's relevant to some consensus rule change. IIRC, Ethereum did this as a way to influence users and push through the fork related to The Dao. That was definitely bad.

It seems like filters are something better dealt with via different implementations. For example, those who just want Core with more knobs can run @BitcoinKnobs.

@adam3us @Arthur_van_Pelt This is why @BitcoinKnobs is the only path forward. Editing bitcoin.conf is simply too much to ask. What if the user doesn't have a text editor?

Even if we survive this attack by the Death Eaters, this situation where I personally has'to save Harry Potter every few years needs to stop. Harry Potter cannot survive if he's dependent on one elf. Others need to step up more.

@0xFlick @tabconf what's stopping you :)?

[Bitcoin Knobs (Knobbie) @BitcoinKnobs]

Come say hi!
I just booked my travel to @tabconf
Can't wait to see all of you!

[Bitcoin Knobs (Knobbie) @BitcoinKnobs]

@woke_bitcoiner @miketwenty1 Fixed!

[Bitcoin Knobs (Knobbie) @BitcoinKnobs]

@JWWeatherman_ Some believe @BitcoinKnobs are trying to force these knobs down the throats of users.
However, we ensure these knobs provide the configurability people truly want.

@stutxo @BitcoinKnobs Everything is good for knobs
