False. People have been able to upload data to the chain since almost the beginning when Satoshi first create op return in 0.1. Bitcoin resists governments and central authorities, it doesn't appeal to them. You need to understand safe harbor laws and how it protects node runners.

Come on dude no maximalists want uncapped OP return

There's fundamentally no difference, people will put things on the chain whether you like it or not.

You stated that my comment was “false” and then tried to substantiate your conclusion with information that was compatible with what I said 🤷‍♂️

I replied with information that disproves your comment. This is called english, learn how to use it.

Incorrect. I could’ve made this statement below, but the first part would’ve been irrelevant.

People have been able to upload data to the chain since almost the beginning when Satoshi first create op return in 0.1. Bitcoin resists governments and central authorities, it doesn't appeal to them. Recently Core’s op-return data limit expanded to a point where new use cases and risks can emerge to dilute the established purpose of Bitcoin and threaten its trajectory towards peer to peer global money.

No. You are simply incorrect in your assumptions that op return can create new use cases that dilute the established purpose of bitcoin. v30 is still the same bitcoin as v29. If op return alone could kill bitcoin it would have already.

Nobody is claiming the change “alone could kill bitcoin” the concern is with opening it to future attacks and diluting its purpose as money.

Ps. Of topic: your site is broken. Use https://pagespeed.web.dev/

Mechanic literally said v30 would kill bitcoin several times in tweets and on his youtube channel. Nothing about op return dilutes bitcoins purpose as money, what are you smoking. Are you having transacting because I can transact just fine.
