Thought this podcast by nostr:npub1jt97tpsul3fp8hvf7zn0vzzysmu9umcrel4hpgflg4vnsytyxwuqt8la9y and Giacomo on BIP 110 was really well done!

@Jeff Booth — respectfully, this needs a response.
You wrote an entire book arguing that fiat is a mechanism of extraction that transfers wealth from the productive to the connected. The Price of Tomorrow is required reading precisely because it names the system.
BIP-110 is the application of that insight to Bitcoin’s base layer.
Non-monetary data embedding — Ordinals, Runes, BRC-20s — is not organic demand. It is VC-backed infrastructure using the Segwit witness discount to commoditize Bitcoin blockspace for non-monetary purposes, crowding out the peer-to-peer electronic cash use case Satoshi described in the white paper.
That is fiat logic applied to a decentralized ledger. Manufacture demand. Extract fees. Capture the protocol.
The episode you praised spent considerable time defending OpenTimestamps — a 40-byte use case — as cover for this entire category. That is False Equivalence. Nobody is attacking OpenTimestamps. BIP-110 targets industrial spam.
It also never addressed:
∙ UASF mechanics
∙ Node operator standardness rights
∙ A single line from the white paper
∙ A single Satoshi forum post
“Well done” is high praise for an episode that avoided the entire technical foundation of what it was critiquing.
The anonymous reply below yours may be the most honest thing in this thread.
