There's been lots of debate about Core v30 removing the OP_RETURN size/count policy defaults, so I ran the numbers for the latest mempool research report: https://research.mempool.space/opreturn-repor...
just becuz the mempool hasnt gone to 2019 levels does not mean that it wont it very likely will again and those who run v30 will be the reason why it can continue . its really not that hard to run knots+bip110 and signal for a clearer mempool . I really hope more node runners take the leap to securing the mission of bitcoin which is to be for monetary data not jpegs inscriptions and tokens
