I’m replying here because @zooko tweeted about your comment and I can’t reply to his threads since he doesn’t follow me. https://x.com/zooko/status/2026144063557390582 But I do take issue with it. I do go to big efforts to engage with Zooko; multiple times over the past few months I have reposted his tweets in an attempt to discuss my Crosslink opposition and most recently about how he’s pre-emptively trying to vilify the coinholders that voted. https://x.com/AndBe1Traveller/status/2025300566725767586
I’ve been in this forum too since August 2024 too so I’m not exactly just a blow in that arrived because the number went up. I was active in the thread Why I Support ZSAs - #25 by Chewbacca as well as the sister thread “why I don’t support ZSAs,” stating my positions and arguments clearly on the matter.
I was quite surprised at how little coinholder support showed up for ZSAs given my impressions of community sentimental support from long term community members: https://x.com/AndBe1Traveller/status/2014739594302918890 What I seem to have gotten really wrong in this tweet was that lots of long term community members seem to just not own much ZEC? That is the reasonable conclusion.
@zooko probably is a bit worried this coinholder vote is a precursor to what a ballot might reveal about a Crosslink coinholder support. The community disagreements are largely philosophical, not technical; maybe we should start being honest about that rather than plowing onwards with crosslink workshops or looking at deploying ZSAs on testnets. It’s just a waste of time because the disagreements aren’t technical, they’re philosophical. Don’t expect much of a different outcome for coinholder support of crosslink; it will be at best controversial and there would be a fork.
And finally, I don’t think this is true. https://x.com/AndBe1Traveller/status/1996204909952422018 The differences brewing in the community have been clear to me from at least December 3rd 2025 when I made this tweet. Why do I see it and you don’t? I don’t know, but like I said the disagreements are largely philosophical and community leaders need to start realising that.
