Block size war was an amazing thing. For the first time in history a group of volunteer open source developers stood up to billions of dollars venture capital, millions of users, most of the hashing power. It went to the market ...
And the developers won!
The reputation of developers in an open source project was worth more than 100mm, or even 1Bn, in VC money per person. That's why in bitcoin, reputation is more valuable than anything
It was a first in history, and it's why we still have open source bitcoin
