In July 2017, #Bitcoin faced a defining test. For years, the community had been torn apart by a question of scale. Should Bitcoin process more transactions by increasing block size, or adopt SegWit, a protocol upgrade that preserved #decentralization while improving efficiency? But the deeper conflict wasn’t technical. It was about power. Frustrated by delays and political gridlock, the community launched the User Activated Soft Fork. It was a bold stand for user sovereignty and a challenge to centralized control. In late July, BIP91 was activated with over 80% of mining support. SegWit was set in motion. More importantly, the network held. Bitcoin proved that its real strength lies not in any one group, but in voluntary consensus and cultural conviction. It didn’t split. It evolved. A movement became a system. You’ve seen what Bitcoin stood for. Do you believe user-activated governance still works today? Why or why not?
