Replying to Avatar Dr. Bitcoin, MD

Unusable? No. Just increases cost of running a node. Raspberry pi nodes are a thing of the past already, for example.

Remember, the harmful attack shitcoins are succeeding with right now is only done because the easy less harmful attack was made difficult by policy.

Perhaps a consensus change is the right way to handle the attack…maybe require witness data to only contain valid signature data.

I definitely see your point. I’m on your side in regard to the attacks on #Bitcoin and would like to minimize it. I’m currently using umbrel on my raspberry pie with a 1 TB external SSD approaching capacity. I will have to buy a 2 TB card soon. I’m all for lowering the friction/cost for individuals to run a node. I also like to be very careful with any changes that are done to the network, as unintended consequences can result that were unseen.
