Spam filters mean there will be less spam.

If you're worried about side effects like centralization of mining or UTXO set bloat then let me know when you're ready to take those problems seriously instead of LARPing about it and nuking OP RETURN limits.

UTXO bloat and mining centralization are *serious issues* in Bitcoin.

You don't get to do absolutely nothing about them for years then invoke them when coming up for convenient excuses for killing datacarriersize.

Mining *is* centralized. There's no amount of bending over we can do relaying the stupidest trash possible around the network appeasing miners and scammers that can roll back the tide there just in the hopes that MARA becomes less motivated to maintain Slipstream.

Where have the serious people gone?

Are there any proposed solutions for the bloat of the UTXO set? If spammers attempt to make a UTXO un-spendable with a false receiver address but otherwise follow TX consensus rules, is there a way to stop it? Thanks and love & support what you do!

Nobody answers this, they just ignore the question.

I believe that Luke has a solution, but people won’t listen because of ego.

Delta Mike 7mo ago

Ok, thanks. I’ll be on the lookout for it.

Luke not only had 1 solution to the problem, it looks like he coded 3 solutions. Also had more options.

Thanks KC. That was a long thread to get through and can’t say I understand much of the programming details but still good background info.

I found some of the counterpoints to be false arguments: Non Sequitors, Post Hoc Ergo Propter Hoc, etc. which leaves Luke’s proposal still strongly logical and justified without strong counter arguments.

That makes 2 of us Delta Mike. I don’t wear the developer hat so I only understand it on the surface level. It sounds like Luke has a few answers that no-one is talking about so it must be political.
