The burning need is to start building consensus on a UASF. This will take time. It is not prudent to wait until there’s a “burning need” to get the ball rolling. That’s a recipe for a rushed rollout.
Plus, I’m looking to reduce the likelihood of more big custodial collapses like Mt. Gox and FTX. If we wait, the next one could be Coinbase, or some as-yet-unknown custodian that’s even bigger.
Getting the UASF ball rolling now is capacity planning for the “suddenly” rush that’s around the corner.
