When I was researching my week in review this morning, came across this: Open Bitcoin Metrics by Diego Llanos. I don't think I've seen it mentioned here but thought it was cool and would share.

Hopefully one of you super coders can turn this into a Start9 package to run on nodes.

By the saints and the whitepaper! Our Benevolent King Dash hath declared it impossible for the chain to rend asunder. Should it fracture, then His Majesty hath uttered untruths most foul.

"Today we are announcing that OCEAN’s backend will be upgraded to follow multiple chains independently in the event of a BIP 110 chain split. If a split occurs, DATUM miners automatically continue on whichever chain their own node enforces, and OCEAN will credit rewards to a split share log for that chain, subject to the chain’s continued operation and to our Terms of Service. OCEAN will effectively operate as two pools from the split point.

Updated Terms of Service addressing split handling will be published before block 961632. We are building all this so our miners can receive rewards based on their own actions without adversely affecting other OCEAN miners."

This is an intentional design decision in SegWit. As it is not part of the “main block” data and is segregated, it allowed increasing the effective block size without breaking old clients.

It definitely seems like it was an overreaction to the announcement of the out-of-band offerings like Mara's SlipStream.

Was it really encouraging it though? Or was it hoping that those misusing other, non-pruneable fields like witness data would take the olive branch and move their data use there so at least it could be pruned by those not running full archival nodes? Again, probably another overreaction that came out of the temporary Ordinal craze.

Witness data is more prunable than OP_RETURN. People have been sold a lie. The witness data is not included in the main txid, so it can be thrown away COMPLETELY while preserving verifiability of the supply. It is what would be pruned by a theoretical “non-archival node” You cannot delete an O...

Being personally disgusted is not implying anything.

He is very open that he believes the sole purpose of marriage is to bear children. Everything referenced are his words. Unfortunately, there are multiple states in the US that allow 15-year-olds to wed with parental or judicial consent. So if he still believes that a 15 year old is of standard marriage age, his statements are pretty clear.

So you're saying Epstein's victims were young adults by Luke-jr's understanding?

Best solution? You can make a case that implementing BIP-110 turns one problem into two or more.

Currently: "Spammer" creates one TX and puts data in op_return. Data gets pruned by non-archival nodes.

BIP-110: Instead of one TX with that op_return payload, they chunk it across multiple transactions and/or even worse, use fields outside of op_return.

Result: While you were aiming to save archival node bloat, you now introduce bloat elsewhere. First, if they use other fields like witness data, you now have UTXO bloat for data that cannot be pruned. Second, by forcing additional transactions to do the same work, you ramp up CPU/Memory overhead bloat, which could stress fringe (older hardware, RasPis, etc) endpoints.

Fees also likely increase because more transactions are being submitted driving up costs for those monetary transaction users. Look, do I want Bitcoin used for this shit? No. But do I get the technical realities and what Core hoped to accomplish? Yes.

If you believe I'm wrong with the above line of thinking, by all means set me straight.

Some disgusting tweets by Luke Dash were unearthed that I had never seen before last night. While there is very little probability this BIP-110 effort is going to be successful, if he ever gets in control of Bitcoin like Knots/110 supporters want, I think I may have to move on.

I also never want to hear the CSAM talking point again.

Focusing on the character flaws of the proponent, however reprehensible, instead of the fact that uncapping OP_RETURN was a trash idea is low-IQ. Certain core devs have had ethereum envy for a long time, that's why they're slowly sneaking this shit in.

I can't remember who proclaimed that neither Core or Dashr have the community's best interests in mind. nostr:npub12262qa4uhw7u8gdwlgmntqtv7aye8vdcmvszkqwgs0zchel6mz7s6cgrkj, was it you?
