Zcash Founder Zooko Wilcox Explains Why Bitcoin's Community Culture Makes Him Bearish
Zcash founder Zooko Wilcox recently said he is bearish on Bitcoin because he believes its community culture has become closed to innovation and hostile to developers. He argued that even a strong technical design cannot survive if the surrounding culture rejects change, contrasting this with his goal of keeping Zcash highly open to evolution. His comments followed a dispute between Aleo CEO Alex Pruden and Bitcoin maximalist "Coinjoined Chris" over post-quantum security tools for Bitcoin.
