📕 Who can merge the core code of Bitcoin Core? It's actually more like the ancient Chinese concept of "abdication" than a vote. First, let me clarify: this "abdication" is merely a structural analogy, emphasizing the "natural inheritance of merit and trust," not intended to glorify any power narrative. Many people assume that Bitcoin Core is so important that there must be a committee, a vote, or some kind of formal appointment process to decide who has the right to merge it.
