Now running knots.
Discussion
What is Knots?
knots is a fork of core with a placebo mempool filtering policy
What is the filter policy?
What transactions does it reject?
wouldn't it be nice if the official website actually said what the filters are?
not being sarcastic. it literally doesn't.
presumably it's filtering any ordinals, and transactions with large opreturns. even if they are valid in the bitcoin consensus.
if at least one miner doesn't have severe autism, even the knots nodes will save these into a block. the filters are placebo.
Ofc, mempool rules like these are not concensus rules so yeah
Go for it. nostr:nprofile1qqspnzgrfett3asxcuj0gksje6z2zxzpvgd27uvz58m9vsuqh8zzw6cpzdmhxue69uhhwmm59e6hg7r09ehkuef0vremhh has a good video on doing it, easily. He goes through doing it for PC, umbrel and start9.
I've switched over. Also blocked rune spam while I was at it.
