Controversial Bitcoin developer Luke Dashjr claims that he is tired of personally saving Bitcoin "every few years."
"Even if we survive this attack by Core30, this situation, where I personally have to save Bitcoin every few years, needs to stop," Dashjr said in a recent social media post.
According to Dashjr, Bitcoin will not be able to survive if it relies just on one man, so other developes need to step up.

Has Dashjr actually saved Bitcoin?
Despite his fringe and extreme ideological views, Dashjr is often credited with "saving" Bitcoin on numerous occasions.
In 2013, he was part of the emergency group of developers who quickly fixed the inflation bug that caused a chain split between nodes and was close to eroding confidence in the original cryptocurrency.
