‘Just Don’t Break’ Bitcoin: Devs Debate Tech Upgrades to Top Crypto

The OP_NEXT bitcoin scaling conference, held at Fidelity Investments' headquarters, focused on discussing improvements that could make bitcoin more useful, usable, and resilient. The conference aimed to push for progress but not too much or too fast, with attendees favoring gradual improvements to the cryptocurrency. Topics of discussion included proposed soft forks, covenants, and the OP_CAT proposal, which would bring bitcoin closer to Ethereum in terms of functionality. The lack of a singular decision-making authority in bitcoin was also highlighted, with no clear consensus on how upgrades should be implemented.
