Bitcoin Core developer Luke Dashjr, known for his anti-segwit stance, believes there is a high probability of success for BIP 444, despite potential initial chaos. He stated that opponents would need to reject it through a reverse fork and chain split, which is unlikely to be widely adopted. Additionally, Dashjr dismissed freezing someone's BTC as mere FUD against BIP 444, with no reason to believe real coins would be affected. However, Mempool developer mononaut disagreed, citing examples of real coins that could be frozen by BIP 444, such as some simple financial use cases utilizing OP_IF in Tapscript.
