       @dilutionproof @pete i keep expecting something amazing to pop up out of nowhere from greg maxwell. Is he still around and active in the space, or on a (well-deserved) sabbatical on a beach somewhere?

       @harrym @pete He proposed Taproot, that was pretty amazing. 😉 To my knowledge he still works for Blockstream with Adam Back etc and is still very much actively working on Bitcoin and related products.

       @dilutionproof @pete Oh. I thought he left Blockstream and that was after the taproot proposal. Sry.

       @harrym @pete Oh you’re right actually (https://blockstream.com/2018/01/19/en-blockstream-bids-farewell-to-gregory-maxwell/), guess I don’t know what he’s up to these days then

       @dilutionproof @harrym He's still doing Bitcoin stuff. But not as publicly as before. I think the block size nonsense burned him out a bit from being too much in the public eye. I still talk to him regularly.

       @pete @dilutionproof I fully understood that decision. Fighting lefty emotionals doesn't even work out well for presidents. :)
