so you're thesis here is:

1) miners will idealistically mine and willingly leave money on the table by filtering large OP_RETURNS.

2) then they will go out of business and the difficulty will go down.

but somehow the remaining miners will STILL filter?

lol

I'm unclear on the endgame here.

1 yes

2 going out of business is part of a meritocracy. some business models break.

the remaining miners will have higher chances of finding blocks, so yes, the higher accuracy will replace the "money left on the table".

the endgame is a money that works as designed.

um

their business model broke because they refused to mine profitable txs.

*any* miner who includes them can outcompete *every* miner who filters.

but ok I get it

filters will work because EVERYONE will just decide that filtering is more important than profit.

and we're blaming Andreas because he doesn't understand this.

good luck with your utopia, we are all cheering for you ❤
