The Bitcoin (BTC) developer community is getting a new standard for making proposals to the network from iconic proponent Samson Mow. Taking to his official account X, Mow declared that the time of “campaigning” for changes to the Bitcoin protocol is over as the currency must keep up with its growing fame.
According to Samson Mow, Bitcoin is becoming the world’s new reserve asset; as such, “there must be a higher standard for any proposed changes. The value of the protocol must first be demonstrated with functional prototypes that have commercial use.”
The design of Bitcoin and the demise of Satoshi Nakamoto made it quite difficult for BTC to operate like most blockchain networks with a central leader to look up to. The Bitcoin network has a large number of developers working independently to make changes to the network. In Samson Mow’s view, proposals need to be more thoughtful and useful to the general public to have a meaningful impact.
In follow-up posts, Samson Mow highlighted how many people are dismissing any second-order impacts of the new protocol changes overall. With Bitcoin gaining proper visibility and traction, Samson Mow’s claims hinge on greater overall stability.
Samson Mow and the legacy of Bitcoin
As one of the leading proponents of Bitcoin, Samson Mow is confident that the digital currency will reach the price of $1 million in the near future, hence the need to preserve its technology that originally made it attractive.
Samson Mow now remains a major defender of Bitcoin’s legacy, but he is not alone in this regard, as lead developer Luke Dashjr revealed last year that the now popularized BRC-20 inscriptions are detrimental to the network’s original designs and They must be eradicated. .
With BTC spot ETF products recently approved and launched in the United States, a new era has begun and all efforts are being directed towards making the protocol the star of the crypto world.
