Great argument 👍

It is not at all self-evident that excluding larger data blobs from a scarce data space is not more lucrative. Strictly because of the variable phi input, you can't just draw the conclusion that more equals more. I literally gave you an example of a miner making more money by excluding inscriptions ...

your brain gymnastics doesn't invalidate anything. you didn’t debunk anything, just redefined it until it sounded wrong.

BIP-110 still makes your transaction invalid Yes, it does but I could just make a different one that simply uses more inputs/pushes/witness elements. - >>Lmao. and still he paid 22 usd with the a sub sat mempool.

Paid $22.57 (34132 sats) & waited days to post one 66KB meme. Then claimed "spam is trivial to bypass." BIP-110 blocks his tx completely. His "easy workaround"? Vaporware he won't code because it's "garbage." He didn't prove filters fail. He proved spam costs 22+ per image and takes days. If t...

BIP 110 works really great. To support spam with URSF is just disgusting. nostr:nevent1qqszqs6h63ldr9jp72k7d9jguxuy4d4pz40r3d274j0c684332qxsdsppemhxue69uhkummn9ekx7mp0qyg8wumn8ghj7mn0wd68ytnddakj7qgcwaehxw309aex2mrp0yhxvmm4de6xz6tw9enx6tcj44vaq

Why did core do nothing to address porn/spam/data bloat when a patch was put forward a few years ago? Why did you blow open op return? Why is my node being bogged down with bullshit since 2023? We know the reason. Core is an attack on Bitcoin.
Jeff Swann · 2w
But the devs (& people supporting their top down changes) are mad that a significant portion of the network is choosing a competitive client that keeps the user controls... If this is an open network ...

Bitcoin Core developers have explicitly said users are free to run different software: https://bitcoincore.org/en/2025/06/06/relay-statement/

What people like myself are sick of are the lies and deceptive rhetoric around all of this, and the toxic environment it creates.

open source and freedom to choose what we run is the reason any of this works. I'm just still a little confused why core v30 with raising the op_return limit was pushed so hard and immediately for release. seems like all it did was create disagreement

Here, I'll address them: - Miners will make less revenue is speculation. (see: barefoot mining revenue after implementing DATUM blocks) - Peter Todd himself made private mempool propagation with his Libra relay so he is, by his own estimation, hurting small miners on purpose. - Fee estimation is ps...

Did you crawl out of the trash again Aaron?
SatsAndSports · 2w
Exactly. It's a common mistake to think of 'dev teams' as being distinct from each other. In open source, that can't really happen. Anybody can contribute to multiple projects simultaneously and I can, without your consent, copy your open source code into mine. In open source, there will always be...

Core's arrogance and recklessness in uncapping OP_RETURN in the face of broad and real controversy is imo where the ego is found. It predictably created the current situation. I get zero impression t...

The day Bitcoin Core developers bend to the pressure of a misguided Twitter mob riled up by populist social media influencers, instead of merging code based on their best technical judgement, is the day the codebase should be forked to re-establish sound engineering practices.

Bitcoin Knots is the fork of the compromised Core devs and Bitcoin being decentralized shows that Core is irrelevant. Bitcoin Plebs can run what they choose it best represents Bitcoin. The Bitcoin immune system is working.

Hanshan · 2w
i guess its good that it exposes that Bitcoin governance is de facto "social pressure on Core" which is indeed a fucking stupid way to run an important software project but its probably better than "Core just decides themselves without any social input at all"

How could this ever work? Who would be the devs in the new fork? Who would trust those devs?

How is capping arbitrary data a “technical argument” that can be judged by “technical judgement” rather than a philosophical position on what bitcoin is and what it should optimise for? Deciding about this is much more about “should we take the risk of jeopardizing Bitcoin as money for it...
Engineer · 2w
Technical judgement is how you determine the best way to achieve a goal. It does not tell you what goals should be pursued. The claim that technical judgement is all that matters is why core devs are perceived as arrogant.
Francis Marion BIP110 · 2w
We use to call that consensus. Now you’re telling people to trust the so called experts. It’s not just about the code. Anyone one these guys could have coded bitcoin. But they didn’t because it’s more than just code.
Super Fresh · 2w
I’m not sure “merging code based on their best technical judgement” can be taken for granted when there are definitely financial interests involved. The current funding and some pasts of the devs, means that they like us, cannot be absolutely neutral. No man is above his incentives. Assuming...
