Please help settle a debate I’ve been having with my girlfriend about running a node. Let’s say Core 30 gets issued and some sicko puts a disgusting, foul picture in the allowed larger OP Return....

Every node will relay the content that makes it into a block. This is exactly why knots doesn’t accomplish anything.

There is already lude content on chain and thus on every node right now. It has no effect on Bitcoin and it has no effect on us using Bitcoin. Hardly anyone knew this before this debacle and nobody cared.

It’s about incentives. Core V30 is encouraging arbitrary data into the chain. Everyone knows you cannot eliminate spam entirely but it can definitely be discouraged by maintaining or further restricting op_return cap.
