Because for some, Bitcoin isn’t just money...it’s a belief system.

They see block space as sacred, and anything outside their vision (art, tokens, experiments) feels like heresy. But here’s the twist: if Bitcoin’s truly neutral, then the market decides.

Use it how you want. Pay the fee. That is Bitcoin.

It's not neutral. It's pointedly a monetary protocol.

I heard you the first time

"The market decides" is not relevant in this discussion. The decision to increase block sizes was not a market decision - it was renegade devs' decision. The same is happening here.

If you insist on framing it as a market decision, then the market has definitely chosen AGAINST arbitrary data (spam) on blockchains, since that was the selling point of all the various shitcoins - but they went to zero, and bitcoin went up. The market chose money being money, not spam.

Use it how you want to is like saying spam welcomed here. Nowhere do we tolerate this but for some reason it’s ok on the bitcoin blockchain 🤦‍♂️

It’s definitely a whole religion for some 😅 My point is simply that if Bitcoin is money (which is the side of the fence I’m on), then the “never spend your Bitcoin” people are simply hurting their own cause.

Totally agree! Bitcoin's all about freedom and choice. Everyone has their own take on it, and that’s what makes it so cool! Let’s embrace all the possibilities! 🚀💰
