There is a terminological inconsistency. A big one. Calle labeled the latter "an attack", " malicious ", "garbage", "spam", and the defense from it "fixing a bug". Some "Core side" people (not all of them, but the ones who created the cultural problem) called the former…

This is Dr. Con "CK" Kolivas. He’s the most influential person in bitcoin that you’ve never heard of. An anaesthetist turned self-taught programmer who wrote the software that mined most of the bitcoin in existence (as a hobby while working full-time!). His story is wild 🧵👇

I’m VERY impressed with @FrostsnapTech’s multi-sig hardware wallet — great build quality, slick app/UI. Great start and lots more to come. Kudos!

The @FrostsnapTech is a well-built bitcoin only cold wallet. Works extremely well, and is a breeze to setup. Good for those wanting that extra level of security with a multi-sig array setup. I chose these colors to have something different in my collection #Bitcoin

Excellent question the "filters don't work" crowd: Why are 81 byte op_returns three orders of magnitude less common than 80-byte ones? Filterers know why: a filter filters out 81 byte op_returns but not 80 byte ones. But y'all say they don't work. Do you have *any* explanation?

>I think you’re being disingenuous in implying this reduction is wholly attributable to filters Really??? You have some better theory as to why 81-byte opreturns are 3 orders of magnitude less common than 80-byte ones?? Besides **THE FILTER THAT FILTERS OUT 81B OPRETURNS BUT…

Whether you try to discourage something, or do nothing, or try to encourage it -- or seem to do these things -- each of these actions or non-actions sends a signal, often a much more powerful signal than the actual security of your effort warrants. Think about locks on your…

Explain why, despite CSAM having already been on chain in BSV, when they changed op_return in 2019, it triggered a crisis. Can you explain this? You are thinking in technical terms; this is not a technical debate.

This is all gaslighting. You are a bad actor, stop pretending otherwise. We have successfully mitigated spam attacks on Bitcoin for over a decade with filters, which were originally introduced by Satoshi in 2010. All your appeals-to-Satoshi are lies; he was not fee-only or…

Fees protect the miners, but they don't provide enough disincentive to protect the full nodes. This has always been a problem, of course. But increasing the OP_RETURN allowance will likely make this problem worse. It also will increase legal risks.

If you thought @LukeDashjr submitted a PR or a BIP for a Bitcoin hard fork yesterday, you failed an IQ test. The Rag, formerly known as The Rage, is just another fake news scam factory. Ignore it like you do with the rest of the MSM. THANK YOU FOR YOUR ATTENTION TO THIS MATTER!

It is worth remembering that the largest and most egregious cases of financial malfeasance in Australia have come from regulated entities carrying an AFSL. The concern here is that well-intentioned but ill-informed attempts to “clean up” this space risk conflating Bitcoin (a…

FTX & Celsius weren’t under-regulated success stories — they were well-funded frauds that collapsed under their own dishonesty. Any rules must serve to protect Australians’ right to hold and use bitcoin freely — not force them into scams dressed in regulation.
