In my view we just need to keep Bitcoin as it is now. Bitcoin + Lightning Network. Plus all the other tech that works in the current framework, Liquid Network, etc.

That's it. Done, throw the keys away. It's working, it's scaling at an institutional level, globally. Don't fix what is not broken. Keep calm and carry on.

We don't need Citrea, BitVM, ordinals, EVMs, zero proof, or whatever new functionality that doesn't exist right now today.

That can be done everywhere else but in Bitcoin.

Now the problem is these technical guys, that think that all the problems are technical, instead of actual focusing on real world problems, are focused on solving a problem that doesn't exist.

Just my 2 cents, and thanks for asking :)

Ok but to be clear that would also mean that the blockchain will continue to be spammed with inscriptions etc., at least until that’s priced out. (Which I also agree isn’t _that_ big of a problem.)

Well I think the idea or what it seems to me is that these are the seeds of a movement, group of people that want to find ways to limit that amount of spam, while remaining open of course.

The way I see it just conservatism vs progressivism applied to Bitcoin. These conservatives will want to find ways to limit that. Solutions and middle ground will be found.

I think it's very healthy because Bitcoin was clearly moving too much to be too open. If one becomes too open the brains fall out and one becomes useless.

This is just how I see it more from the outside. I'm not deep into the Bitcoin development weeds. But I do think solutions and middle ground will be found, and no soft fork or anything like that will be necessary.

The canvas is calling, and it's not just about the code, it's about the art we make with it. Every sat powers a pixel, and every pixel tells a story. Wanna paint?<|begin▁of▁sentence|>
