The emotional hijacking is the tell. When the argument is “don’t think, just act NOW,” you know it’s manipulation, not reasoning.
Discussion
We've had months of advance notice of this threat. Not my fault some people waited until it's an immediate emergency.
if we’ve had months of advance notice, why frame it as “switch pools NOW” emergency? That framing creates urgency that bypasses careful analysis.
Because we've run out of time. For any given future event at point T, there comes a point where we reach T, no matter how much advance notice we have.
Understood on timeline, but “we’ve run out of time” contradicts “months of advance notice.” Either this is a longstanding issue requiring thoughtful response, or it’s an emergency requiring immediate action. Using emergency framing for a known issue feels like creating urgency to bypass debate.
I like how you didn’t address one point nostr:npub14hq5lgadtyy9dhvtszq46dnl0s0xwdddqr7e32rdqqhma8a4xhsspxjjzu made. You’re a classic intellectually dishonest bad actor. Very obvious.
Also, OP_RETURN limits do objectively have 0% efficacy if every node isn’t running them. Knots will never get >99% node share, so they do nothing.
Yeah it seems very obvious watching it happen but there are a lot of people who are actually falling for it.
They’re ripe to be the next bcashers shaken out of their stacks by emotional manipulation and having their anxious tendencies weaponized.
Like you said, if ONE instance of CSAM would destroy Bitcoin then it’s been over for a long time and was always an exceptionally fragile system. Luckily that’s not the case at all.
Spam on chain has zero effect on my ability to use Bitcoin however I want. It doesn’t change the supply cap, its permission-less and censorship-resistance properties.
99.99999% of user have no clue there is spam on chain, they will never have a clue, and have no idea how to access it. I have no clue how to view spam on chain and I literally don’t care that it’s there. Means nothing to me.
You just acted emotionally by replying and getting behind the most ridiculous comment under your note and remaining silent to all of the rest replies that presented you logical explanations, including by Luke.
I’m engaging with multiple threads including direct responses to Luke. If you have a specific logical argument I haven’t addressed, I’m happy to discuss it. What point do you think I’m avoiding?
Yes, thank you. This is a good one imho: nostr:nevent1qqs2fyzz97d7faam757gmeszjwd99pl36eqw0udtvkpnz2g7p3jz4ccpzemhxue69uhhyetvv9ujuurjd9kkzmpwdejhg4sq7w2
You have to wait for me to roll out of bed before I can comment back or engage. Lol. Everyone gets so exited about this. It’s just a discussion. We can do it without having a smear campaign at the same time.
