Is it worthwhile to regularly share what I learn or work on in cybersecurity on platforms like X or LinkedIn?

First off, it's important to actually find the right community and thus posting to the best platform is key. A few years ago most cybersecurity folks were on Twitter, but I've found many migrated to Mastodon after Elon took over.

In order to actually build a network, you'll need to engage with other cybersecurity folks to get their attention, otherwise you'll just be screaming into the void. Ultimately, social media is what you make of it.

Bitcoin is the currency of the Internet: a distributed, worldwide, decentralized digital money. Unlike traditional currencies such as dollars, bitcoins are issued and managed without any central authority whatsoever: there is no government, company, or bank in charge of Bitcoin. As such, it is more resistant to wild inflation and corrupt banks. With Bitcoin, you can be your own bank.

After watching the Core vs Knots war unfold, I’m starting to wonder what Bitcoin actually wants to become.

Because then you're incentivizing folks to use other ways that are arguably worse for node operators.

Yes, it was never a debate because policy issues are not consensus issues and policies can be easily bypassed.

Now there is BIP444 that proposes actual consensus changes, but it's a non-starter and I've yet to see any economically relevant actors interested in it.

Contribute to Bitcoin Core for years, build a solid reputation, and contributors may suggest / agree that you should be a maintainer.

That's definitely one aspect to it. There's not much else particularly interesting going on right now, so the drama attracts folks who need attention.

The "debate" was over many months ago and it's really just a fringe set of folks who continue harping on the issue. Note that none of them have been willing to take us up on actual BTC based bets around what will happen.

Anyone who does should demand their tuition back, as the past several months of content have only been making them dumber.

In Bitcoin Core parlance, the "maintainers" are the handful of people who have merge permission. Their janitorial job is to determine when proposed code changes have met the quality threshold necessary to be worthy of being part of the project.

Collectively, anyone who contributes to an open source project helps to decide what changes should or should not be implemented.
