- Softforks can never cause hardforks.
- Hardforks rarely make sense, and don't in this context.
- Replay protection doesn't make sense for hardforks or softforks.
- Hardforks require unanimous consensus. A minority-supported hardfork is IMPOSSIBLE. Just look at failed attempts like BCH.
Core actively denies miners control of their block creation, and tries to impose a centrally dictated policy. So Knots is de facto required for decentralized mining.

(Ask to verify my PGP key fingerprint in person!)
Don't use the keys for access.
Revocation seems fairly simple on nostr. Not sure what needs explaining.
The hard part of nostr delegation is the UX since keys are displayed to end users
Offline key signs messages about what other keys can represent it
Those other keys go in your clients
If one gets compromised, master key signs a revocation and merkle tree of pre-revocation signatures
Too young. I think the youngest was 7 or 8. They kept hacking through whatever parental controls I installed. So now even the oldest (16) isn't allowed one. I'd like to change that, but he won't prove himself trustworthy with it😮💨
Hence "You should download multiple developers' public keys from at least two independent sources each and ensure they match. Ideally, you should verify key fingerprints in person with the developer(s) to the best of your ability."😉
Catch me at a Bitcoin conference sometime - I carry around business cards with my PGP key fingerprint.
In the past, Core devs have had key signing meetings, but I had to make a new key after the last one
No, we don't know Bitcoin works today. It might very well not be. We do know the blockchain is growing faster than technology improvements can keep up.
