Yes, and we currently have plausible deniability. That won’t necessarily be tue case moving forward with v30 hence the heated discussion on X

v30 shifts the risk surface from rare/obfuscated fragments toward larger, contiguous, more easily detectable blobs of arbitrary data that can be illicit and harder to fight off in court. See what happened to the samourai guys and tornado cash. This is not a minor risk.

Has anyone given you a satisfactory answer that outweighs the potential known risks and the unknown ones?

I don't want 100kb op returns. idgaf about miner profitability. I do care about being able to store a mempool in 8gb of RAM. that's why I run knots. the csam argument is weak and comes from a place of ignorance.

Bless your heart

my friend, you didn't even know you were hosting CSAM links until I told you. go back to twitter.

>idgaf about miner profitability

I hope you figure out what's wrong with this statement

its a problem that has ALWAYS solved itself throughout bitcoins history and that will continue, even without filling blocks with spam.

don't be surprised if it's not in the way you prefer

spam is the way I would not prefer lol

Tbh I haven’t given a ton of thought to it I’ve been largely ignoring it. Legally, the risk usually turns on knowledge/intent and distribution. If the idea is that v30 meaningfully changes that I’ll have to give it some more thought.

Fair

I tagged you on a post with a short article elaborating on this matter
