 This recent bcap paper looks more like an attack on bitcoin. Not many people will say bad things about it though because 2 authors are investors.

 How so do you think this could be an attack on Bitcoin? 

Curious from your perspective.
I am currently reading this now. I saw Lynn and others released this a few days ago.

 Lot of controversial things in the paper that are just opinions. This makes the soft fork politics uglier and delays next soft fork.

 yea, the attempt to paint media people and influencers as 'stakeholders' in bitcoin's consensus is the reddest of flags.

 regardless of words or hype, douchebag always smells like douchebag.
