Fast ibd yeah… right. And nodes are still cheap, you can buy one with 2TB ssd and 16 GB RAM for… 600 EUR. Oh, and you also need fast internet connection. That surely doesn’t look prohibitive for...

IBD is up to 25-40 % faster now. You should really try it in Oct with Core 32 ;)

A node costs nothing. Bitcoin core (or for you: Knots) is free. No idea what you are talking about here... Old notebook does the job well. You can even prune.

We have a block size limit. And fees. BTW: The lowest fees ever.

I fell for nothing. Nothing even changed for me. You are falling for the bullshits of Luke, Kratter, Mechanic and Guida ("We need to change bitcoin now or it will die!!!!"). It is easy: You want to change bitcoin and so you will have to fork off.

Sadly I will call you nothing as we will not see anymore. You will be on that BIP110 chain and BIP110-coin-conferences I guess.

If it really activates without chain split, which is highly unlikely, nothing changes too... Inscription fans and devs will just find other ways. You know why? Because they know all the Bitcoin ins and outs much better than any BIP110 promoter. One could even say they understand Bitcoin much better than any purist.

I watched and read so many BIP110 stuff and it is really embarrassing. Most of them even say themself: "I don't understand how it works but I want it to only be money"!

I’ve been there... and I learned how it works. There is no perfect way to prevent spam on Bitcoin. The blocksize limit and fees are there for exactly that reason. They work well. They strike a reeeally good balance between free, uncensorable money transactions and limiting DDoS/spam attacks.

You’re full of shit man. You could have easily made a simple google search to see the cheapest used/refurbished laptop with these stats go on the market without talking nonsense. IBD is 25-40% faster compared to what? 1995 dial up internet connection? You haven’t done a real IBD at any point in ...

ibd is faster on the newer versions compared to the older ones because the assumevalid bypasses validation for much of the spam of the last 3 years. v28 - block 856760 (august 2024) v29 - block 886157 v30 - block 912683 (september 2025) theres incremental improvements for assumevalid=0 across vers...
