Heavily Armed Clown Exactly this. OP_RETURN didn’t create spam, it contained it. It was a safety valve, not a backdoor. Data embedding existed before OP_RETURN and would exist without it. You can encode in pubkeys, script patterns, even signatures. Pick a byte, pick a trick. OP_RETURN was Core’s

Chris Guida | ⚡🪢 #NoCoreV30 I think something like Stable Channels + splicing + channel factories (or something like Virtual Channels on Ark) ... all combined ... is the stablecoin killer. 💵🗡️

Hugo Antoine Poinsot Giacomo Distributed-AuthoritariPuritan Zucco⚡️🌋🧀 you're saying things should have been discussed when they clearly were its really an advocacy problem where users don't know / care what is being discussed. core devs have less than 10k followers but you can get 100k followers launching a treasury company

Fighting talk from Gregory Maxwell on the Core v Knots spam debate...

You will truly get it when I show a video demo, but understand we've created the ULTIMATE Bitcoin self-custody experience. Try it yourself: wallet.bullbitcoin.com 1. Download BULL app 2. Import Coldcard Q via QR code in 15 seconds 3. Activate auto-swap and select Coldcard Q

Many such cases amongst big blockers back in the day and Knots runners now.

All permission-less open interoperable bitcoin standards. 👏👏👏

crypto tech has evolved into a panopticon built around dollar stablecoins. after a decade, you guys have reinvented paypal with blockchain (read: worse privacy) and attached a memecoin casino to it, good job. this is why bitcoin tries to distance itself from crypto lol

Don’t become exit liquidity for coordinated token pumps.

Udi Wertheimer I don’t think it’s necessary or optimal to advertise crypto scams or corporate stocks to people in order to educate them and onboard them to Bitcoin

for people annoyed about sub 1s/vb summer. some facts: that was memed into reality ORGANICALLY by users with their own demand and fullnodes, using the tolerant minority effect, and some miners who went along. and note no libre-relay was involved. and more key facts:

This is the same Naval that quit twitter in 2018 after being brutally mocked for claiming that bitcoin did not have developer incentives (muh security budget) and that ethereum did. Seven years later and he's still not your guru.

jack No, bitcoin is programmable money.

The Bitcoin adoption story is completely backwards. We think it goes: Tech nerds → Libertarians → Investors → Institutions → Governments → Mass adoption Here's what actually happens: Criminals validate the unstoppability. Gamblers provide the liquidity. Speculators

Always remember Satoshi's Law. If they say bitcoin dies unless <thing>, they are trying to scam you. x.com/LukeDashjr/sta…

Idk who needs to hear this, but Bitcoin won’t die without you. Who am I kidding, we all know exactly who needs to hear this.

Rearden Vibes 🛩 fork/acc We've seen this in bitcoin before, we know how this ends. Usually in a fork that's worth alot less than bitcoin.

Hearing CorpChains are trying to create FUD with regulators and financial institutions about open, truly decentralized blockchains on compliance and more. Hate to break it to you guys, but it won’t work. The time of reg-capture by closed, corp-controlled money networks is over.

Bitcoin is a privacy coin too. We just haven't been doing a great job promoting our existing privacy solutions enough (Coinjoins, Lightning, Liquid, etc..)

Factually incorrect.
