Look how #Bitcoin use “Filters”. Thanks Ava Chow 😉

Satoshi: "if you spam I will implement a script whitelist" The undersigned: "if you spam I'll help you out because doing the right thing seems complicated"

Zero mention that refusal to relay transactions decreases the chance of those transactions existing in the first place. Core: Spammers are a force of nature that cannot be negotiated with, not human beings who can use other networks or methods Bitcoin nodes are OK with.

Bitcoin Core Project NACK The goals of transaction relay listed are basically all wrong. Predicting what will be mined is a centralizing goal. Expecting spam to be mined is defeatism. Helping spam propagate is harmful. This OPED contradicts itself, presenting out of band relay as both negative and

John McCoy Bitcoin Core Project The most important things you can do today are: 1) Fight economic/node centralization by encouraging businesses to accept payment in bitcoins, using their own full node. This is crucial to enforcing the consensus rules themselves. 2) Fight mining centralization by solo mining

Script whitelists for when the spam gets bad again Also I thought Peter Todd was the one who came up with making opreturn prunable TIL

Today is really sad day, Bitcoin Core is now fully malicious. There is no longer any filters on Bitcoin Core agains't shitcoins on the chain. If you still run Core I very strongly urge you to switch to Bitcoin Knots or to not update Core. Bitcoin is our only chance to escape

Bitcoin Merges Merged despite majority opposition. Plebs will not forget that Core is compromised.

Behold, the ritual suicide of Bitcoin Core

This is correct. What Core have done is completely incoherent. Removing a spam filter in the hopes that spammers switch from harmful fake pub keys to op return with zero guarantees in that regard is just wishful thinking. Ignoring the fact that having to remove a filter is an

52 days. That's all it took for a non-Bitcoin project to co-opt Bitcoin Core's development and direction. If that doesn't terrify you, it should. If such an insignificant shitcoin entity can shift Bitcoin Core's development so easily with so little influence, despite massive

Bitcoin Core offered a formidable defence against fiat-creep infecting this space. It has now fallen and we're down to the last line of defence. Bitcoiners. It they fail to recognize what's going on and continue on the Core path then the foundation will have rotted out and the

Don't let the bad actors trick you into thinking Bitcoin Core 30 allows you to re-enable the datacarrier limit: 1) Along with unlimiting the default, they also broke it further. datacarriersize=83 now (as of Core 30) allows for 83 outputs totalling 830 bytes of spam, instead of

🟠 Gin Torstic ⚡80 Bytes is enough Likely this was initiated solely to try to destroy my reputation (just look at all the slander of me personally) and set the stage for increasing the block size limit (they know I'd put up a strong resistance). But once Bitcoin decentralization is lost (which this spam issue is

If you needed any more evidence that Core and Core’s closest influencers are two-faced, look no further

People need to stop trying to dress up attacks on Bitcoin as "debates". That implies there are two legitimate "sides". There is no "debate" around OP_RETURN. There is an attack, and it must be fought.

shire The sooner proposals like this are implemented, the sooner blocks can get smaller. Assuming of course we deal with spam too (so it doesn't just fill up the gained space) CTV/CSFS and spam filters go together

Imagine surrendering every time someone showed up at your border with guns just because your defenses weren’t perfect. That’s the mindset of the anti-filter crowd.

Bittorrent Longer track record of data preservation than Bitcoin Actually used to publish sensitive nation state leaks No 700GB+ blockchain to download Free Only morons use Bitcoin to publish arbitrary data

Interesting looking back and seeing how attempts at moving arbitrary data transactions off-chain were sabotaged.
