Yes you are correct, it exposed the rot. My wording could have been better than saying the fork failed. What I intended was that it failed to activate on the SHA256 chain but is now active and thriving on the Blake2b chain.
And yes I guess I was speaking metaphorically about the nodes that were a part of the Knots/BIP110 group and then carried on the Blake2b being a fraction of a percent. That could have been worded better as well. So we went from say 20,000 Knots nodes to now just about 5,000 Blake2b nodes. Honestly, that’s great. I’m impressed with how many have done the work to get there this early.
Couldn’t agree more, the energy is entirely different.
