Op_return drama is a symptom of a long standing issue: *smart-contracts-on-bitcoin mindset* created problems that are still with us. Bitcoin simply being the best money was enough. Should have been enough. Early devs + others wanted bitcoin to be *smarter*. This + VC money + humans always *wanting-to-do-something* led to the alt/shit/meme/defi nonsense. Perhaps a consensus change could add much needed addition friction for nonfinancial blobs, but reaching consensus on a change seems like a long shot. We should lean into what is already consensus: limited block size + fees creates the ultimate filter. The typical way out of most problems is to do the work. Fees as the filter are the way out: neutral efficient relentless. Fees require real work, always and forever. This is a ultramarathon, not a sprint. Pay to play on onchain. Work and create value to afford to pay.
