Bitcoin core contributor Luke Dashjr is reportedly contemplating a hard fork to retroactively alter non-monetary data on the blockchain. Dashjr has suggested forming a committee to review transactions, a move that has sparked controversy. Critics argue that such a change could compromise Bitcoin's censorship resistance, with BitMEX Research labeling it an 'attack' on Bitcoin's fundamental features. Dashjr has denied these allegations, while Blockstream CEO Adam Back described the accusations as 'worse than imagined.' Bitcoin has previously undergone several hard forks, including the creation of Bitcoin Cash.
