It has been said nonsensically that people wishing to have kept the limit wished there be centrally controlled lists but fail to face the reality of the state as a master of centralisation. "and detection of bad files will, you can be sure, be sold as a service by Chain Spies."

Don’t kid yourselves,separation of money and state won’t be easy. You won’t wake up one day to a $1M Bitcoin. When you do, it’ll be because you earned it, grinding through every false narrative, every hopium cycle, every influencer grift dressed up as “adoption.” You’ll have…

Wow. So if this outcome is a possibility, and is 100% avoidable, and it’s 100% certain that p()rn is going to be stored, why take the risk? Why would anyone think that taking this risk is a “reasonable trade off”? It can’t stop spam, makes storing contiguous, large, finance…

As this happens, bitcoin will be associated and smeared with one of the worst crimes, justifying the claims that not only is bitcoin based on a discredited economic model (Austrian School) which even some of its developers reject, but that its open nature and entrenched…

This is a direct accusation on my work, since I'm the person who initially noticed the redefinition outside of Core dev circles and made it widely known. Feel free to review the information in this thread and point out any inaccuracies you may find. x.com/oomahq/status/…

Now that people are starting to pay attention it's probably a good time to remember that 2 years ago Bitcoin Core officially "fixed" the inscription exploit by redefining the meaning of -datacarriersize. They seem to hate -datacarriersize for some reason.

...but the context is important. This redefinition was done to justify closing another PR that was open at the time: one from Luke that expanded -datacarriersize to apply to inscriptions, too. The ruse depended on nobody noticing the redefinition was recent, but I did :) 2/2

I think this should be a standard everywhere. When you delete your account EVERYTHING should be deleted.

California passed a law requiring social media companies to delete your personal data when you deactivate your account.

The moral objection is objection enough. The jpeg people will use other means its cheaper so a dead end. It leaves only attackers who will use the larger op_return and the weirdos for "the kicks" of just doing something destructive socially and potentially legally to node runners

As I've said, you've lost the argument and cannot even bring yourself to write "OP_RETURN" any more, because you know what everyone knows; it's a disaster waiting to happen. And it is perfectly rational to not want to store or relay p[]rn (or anything else users don't like) on…

Narrator: "99% of Knots code comes from Core" ¯\_ (ツ)_/¯ x.com/callebtc/statu…

I'm very bullish on Bitcoiners because basically every technical person I respect thinks Knots is a burning pile of trash.

When your code has a perceived or actual effect on people’s money, livelihood, or freedom, expect very “passionate” interactions.

I don't know who needs to hear this but here it is: Until we have a better technical solution, archival full nodes are important for Bitcoin. Local policies aren't just to protect your node against DoS. They also exist to protect archival full nodes.

Is there anyone out there with a solid understanding of Core's position who will help me understand it? @heavilyarmedc had offered but hasn't responded @JWWeatherman_ simply refused Both called me too stupid to understand. (I'm a high IQ programmer analyst)

This is perhaps the most compelling vision for Bitcoin. Funny how many “Bitcoiners” are ambivalent about it. Perhaps these “Bitcoiners” don’t understand Bitcoin at all?
