So now, let's give them one more way to spam? So they have more options now? And hope that they use opreturn which is more expensive than segwit?
Discussion
What's the new way to spam?
100kb opreturn, in addition to the existing taproot/segwit exploits (ordinals, brc20, jpegs)
Being able to make 100kb opreturn is not new. You've been able to do that since 2014 when the op code was enabled. Filtering keeps them out of your mempool. It may delay propagation but only for a few minutes at most if gossip works how it should on Bitcoin.
Ok, do you know how many non-standard tx that were not relayed by the nodes? We do not know because they did not get into the blockchain. If what you're saying is true, then you are saying that Mara's slipstream is economically stupid business idea. Spammers go to them for a reason, "because we are not relaying them for free". Shocking!
People use slipstream because they don't know how to use their own node. They will pick up your transaction if it's economicly feasible whether you send directly or not. They did get into the blockchain. Or could at least. The truth is there's not much point to large OP returns so people don't do them. It costs a lot to put data on Bitcoin. It's the most expensive database ever and poorly optimized to distribute large bits of data. It's not that people couldn't do it. It's that there was no incentive to do it in the first place. Almost like fee rate is Bitcoins spam prevention and not filters...
People use Slipstream because it's convenient and reliable. Anyway, I guess we will find out how all of this will play out once v30 is released.
Yes we do. Near 0.
How would we know the true number of non-standard txs if they're being sent directly to miners and not through the nodes? The "near 0" figure only shows that the public filter is working -- it doesn't show us the private market for hashrate that makes services like Slipstream a viable business.
