If you had a bunch of Bitcoin price data, and you wanted to extrapolate in to the future for retirement or DCA estimating, and that data fit a power law, the natural thing to do would be to create a Markov model with transition probabilities derived from quantile power law fits to price data and then take several hundred weighted random walks to get a feel for where one ends up after say 10 years…

This sort of thing used to take a while on a computer; I can now do it on your phone…sorta…I precomputed about ½ a gigabyte of simulation results for instant lookup, but I think I will figure out how to integrate @BTCPay Server so people can pay for the compute cycles to simulate their exact scenario. Is 50¢ for high quality digital graphs of your retirement too expensive? I think I’m gonna corner the sub-$1 financial planner market 🤣

You misunderstand. I’m saying you’re fos.

sounds like misconduct in the first place. i am sure that there is a solution outside the first layer. my node is not here to store random (script) data nor spam.

You misunderstand. Bip110 disables advanced bitcoin key security techniques because they aren’t common and spammers can use similar constructs…but throwing the baby out with the bath water is unwise and denying users the ability to move economically relevant amounts of funds is also unwise

#Bip110 makes #Bitcoin a pure monetary network, corrects some of the mistakes of the past and sends a signal that the decentralized immune system works. Pretty powerful. Then we should stop messing with the code and focus on the revolution…messing with the code is an attack on the revolution de ...

“Solved spam” would mean there are clear, enforced policy limits that prevent arbitrary data injection into the chain. But the entire 2023–2025 sequence proves the opposite: limits were narrowed...

Spam is completely solved on a technical level. Full blocks, be they spammy or not, won’t kill bitcoin.

That said, there is human utility in reserving block space for legit transactions.

Maybe @Luke Dashjr would consider a BIP targeting partitioning of the block space into standard and nonstandard subblocks…keeping transactions cheap has value to network growth.

"Solved on a technical level" is doing a lot of heavy lifting there. Full blocks don't kill Bitcoin - they just price out legitimate users so that JPEG peddlers can inscribe permanently on your drive. That's not "solved," that's surrender. Your "partitioning" idea - standard vs nonstandard subbloc...

the problem with opening to spam or anything else is it can be used to attack node runners. for example, I'm told there are files for 3d printing guns on the chain now. where I am they are illegal, so technically I'm breaking the law by having a node. I can see in future this being used to prosecu...

The whole knots v core debate is the wrong one. We really should be arguing about partitioning block space for standard vs. Non standard transactions

https://primal.net/e/nevent1qqspxgc6unxajuj2ww4kqhn8pya8t0tf2s0409yy002cxxu2s5xdwyqu7pyf2 exactly: should consensus carve out space for arbitrary data? if yes, how much? what node implementation you run is arbitrary data 🤣 this issue was always going to be arbitrated by protocol consensus

Decided to add some Bitcoin history and Bitcoiner quotes to the occasional loading screen on Quantoshi…so you don’t see the 1500 msec of caching behind the scenes…there is an Easter egg that will let you scroll through all quotes…102 good ones.

Now go get stacking!
