I don't think any of us can truly see far enough to understand where things will end up - But truth of the matter is this is the next best time to take action and help steer things in the direction we want - Through consensus we overcome the negatives of personal agendas.

I'm looking for a revival of the Bitcoin privacy advocacy and cypherpunk values in the coming months and years.

Having followed the Samourai devs for years, they knew this was going to happen - And I for one am looking forward to the fight they're going to put up because they won't go down easy. Their fight may be a catalyst for privacy-minded individuals to 'hoist the colors.'

Samourai devs also picked a lot of fights with a lot of other developers when they saw non-privacy implementations of code in privacy-focused services - Their biggest fight was probably with Wasabi Wallet. Years later and we now know Wasabi censors transactions and via chain analysis users of their mixing service have been deanonimised. Yet Samourai get insulted left right and center because of their abrasiveness... Divisive at a communtiy level, but actions must speak louder.
