Inside the Mind of Luke Dashjr, Bitcoin's Most Polarizing Developer
Today we dive deep into the controversial world of Luke Dash Jr, the Bitcoin developer behind Bitcoin Knots who believes the sun orbits the Earth, supports monarchy over democracy, follows an obscure Catholic sect with only 30,000 followers worldwide, and thinks using Bitcoin in ways he disapproves of should be criminal. We expose his authoritarian development practices and why Bitcoiners should know exactly who they're endorsing.

Notes:
• Luke's sect has only 30,000 followers vs 1.4B Catholics
• Luke was sole BIP editor for a while
• Bitcoin Knots filters some lighting & coinjoins
• Luke believes violating laws equals immoral behavior
• “GitHub doesn't work with Knots” claims disputed
