Re: BIP 110 post mortem. Miners don't control Bitcoin, and pools don't control miners. Pools are payout coordinators for thousands of individual operators who can repoint hashrate elsewhere in ten minutes. A pool signaling against its miners' interests just loses the hashrate.
AI visual note: The image shows a Twitter/X exchange between Michael Saylor (@saylor) and hodlonaut (@hodlonaut) discussing the BIP-110 fork, where Saylor notes that 99.85% of Bitcoin's hashrate stayed with Bitcoin while the BIP-110 branch only mined two blocks, and hodlonaut questions whether miners control Bitcoin, prompting Saylor to clarify that consensus emerges from the entire network. The accompanying post relates to this by elaborating that miners don't control Bitcoin and pools don't control miners, as pools merely coordinate payouts for thousands of individual operators who can redirect their hashrate in minutes, reinforcing Saylor's point that network consensus—rather than any single constituency—ultimately determines Bitcoin's direction.
