This big beautiful consolidation transaction has been in my mempool for the last six blocks and was actually rejected by Foundry USA 3 times, viaBTC, and Binance in favor of a bunch of garbage spam. This is where core 30 is taking us. Core nodes now favor bloating the utxo set over shrinking it.
My knotty node has been trying to mine this transaction the entire time but it was displaced by spam that core 30 is optimized for. Why is core software rejecting valid transactions that are actually beneficial to the blockchain in favor of flooding the blockchain with bullshit dust transactions.
This transaction was eventually mined by F2Pool and turned 1000 utxos into 1. Why are we optimizing bitcoin to be free data storage service for miscreants instead of prioritizing transactions that clean up that junk. I'm sure this is just some scammer preparing another mint of dick butts on the chain but it still begs the question. Why is it easier to spam the chain than clean it up. Seems like the incentives are perverse.
