That doesn’t really respond to the preference that Bitcoin be a monetary transaction protocol for the peer-to-peer electronic cash transfers. If someone wants to play with blockchain file storage, Solana looks like a great option.

noone disagrees with this, except for some extreme degen gamblers and bad actors

You lost me with ‘this.’ Which ‘this’ are you referring to? 😂 I guess I’m too slow to keep up.

noone disagrees that bitcoin should be used mainly for monetary transactions.

Why not keep anything above 80 bytes on a Bitcoin Layer 2? Any reason this stuff must be included on Layer 1?

not really, unless you want something to be super censorship resistant and have it replicated across many computers across the world. you just have to pay a decent amount of coin to do this.

IMHO that means monetary transactions only. No image or other non-monetary data warrants the bloat created down the road on the main chain. Even the Bitcoin white paper doesn’t need to be imbedded in the Bitcoin time chain. Just because something can be done, doesn’t mean it should. It helps to think long-term and all users. Hardware requirements for node runners has already become much more expensive and 3rd world plebs deserve their financial sovereignty just as much as we do.

ok, thanks for sharing your opinion. unfortunately this doesn’t make any progress on the issue at hand

Agreed. And thank you for sharing yours.
