1) what

sorry

1) WHAT

🤣

I sometimes forget we have a whole generation of bitcoiners who weren't around for this pre-blocksize wars stuff ... there were basically 3 big dramas around mining back in that era. This one (Luke's censorship, and more generally the controversy around satoshi dice), the ghash.io 50% drama, and the butterfly labs '2 weeks' delivery.

I mean OK there were probably 10 others I don't remember šŸ˜„

I'm not including the OP_RETURN drama, it kinda overlaps I guess

WHAT THE FUCK IS GOIN ON

9 yrs ago my man

Thank you sir I thought this was today 🤣🫔

The Mad King

No one is above having their motives questioned

Wow, they’re that desperate huh

Luke is always doing some stupid shit

We had the blocksize war and now we're entering into the period of the allowed-transactions war šŸ˜ž

Matt, do you have a financial relationship with Samourai?

TEN31 HAS INVESTED IN 36 BITCOIN COMPANIES INCLUDING SAMOURAI.

A FULL LIST OF OUR PORTFOLIO CAN BE FOUND HERE: https://ten31.vc

MY RECORD SPEAKS FOR ITSELF. I HOLD PORTFOLIO COMPANIES TO A HIGHER STANDARD THAN NON PORTCOS AND I AM CRITICAL OF THEM WHEN THEY FUCK UP.

YOU ARE AN OCEAN INVESTOR, WHAT IS YOUR POINT?

Just making the disclosure Matt. Thanks for doing the same.

I appreciate all you have done for bitcoin, we are fighting the same war.

Best of luck.

Should have included a disclaimer Matt šŸ¤”

uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuugh

9 years ago, no context.

Yeah this is some dumb shit. Embarrassed I reposted and nostr will know forever!

The question needs to be asked, why is Matt working so hard against Luke. He didn’t go full soldier mode until the issue with Samourai.

Fair question. Also worth noting that Luke and ocean have been deceiving in their communication as well. I have no doubt this will evolve into a soft fork debate

Fair criticism.

Liar

Can you elaborate why you refute that changes in Bitcoin core to the byte limit didn’t set a new standard? It seems that the higher byte standard is in much wider use than that used in knots. A one word answer isn’t adequate communication.

Luke, don't pay attention to anyone's attacks, these are hyenas fighting over carrion. Do your deeds with all your heart and do not waste your mental strength on them.

The funny thing is that there is actually a pretty good chance that I agree with him and many others might too, but he has done a terrible fucking job communicating

Perhaps, but to suggest he is attacking bitcoin is clearly untrue. His work, and the work of many others, over the years is, in part, why we are all here using bitcoin.

Just block out the noise, check out the pool, or just watch the project evolve into something beautiful over the next 12 months.

I don’t think I ever suggested that this is an attack on bitcoin… I think it’s clear that Luke would like to see changes to core that could even result in a softfork, but that is part of the natural progression of the protocol.

My concerns are more around the mode of implementation, but more deeply probably just the communication (or lack thereof). Admittedly, the more I have read into the old Bitcoin core PRs I actually see a lot of consistency in what Luke is trying to do with ocean. Unfortunately, I don’t think his comments on Twitter have adequately reflected that at all.

I hope he can bring some of his thoughts together and share them more cohesively with the community either on his own or through ocean.

I didn’t mean to suggest you had said such a thing, but a few others have.

All the best. šŸ«‚

Kind words.

TIME IS A FLAT CIRCLE

As above, so below.

Now you do one……

9 years ago, no context.

Do you have a financial relationship with Samourai? The freaks want to know.

Are we at the point where lukejr is a bad actor? I know he is also claiming that ordinals and inscriptions are a security threat. I don’t know what to believe from him.

Better believe no one and do your own research.

This your first time reading about that? Lol

NOPE - JUST MAKING NEWCOMERS AWARE

Of what? It’s a nothingburger. You literally cannot ā€œforceā€ anything on people using Gentoo because you configure and build software manually.

TIME IS A FLAT CIRCLE SIR

I just think it’s funny to make a stink about an ebuild patch that is entirely optional. It would be more scandalous if a binary was shipped with the patch but this is much different.

THE POINT IS LUKE HAS BEEN SELECTIVELY CALLING CERTAIN BITCOIN TRANSACTIONS SPAM FOR A DECADE NOW. THAT IS RELEVANT.

Those dice sites are objectively tremendously inefficient use of block space and have impacted how easy it is to sync a full node. You like full nodes right?

And I've been right for a decade.

It's kind of funny, even though I disagree with Luke WRT ordinals and satoshidice I saw this and thought "huh, at least he's consistent". Totally forgot about this, heh.

This is from 9 years ago

YEA - PEOPLE SHOULD KNOW THEIR HISTORY

Sure, but I bet 90% who read this think it’s new.

Whatever happened with this anyway? I’ve forgotten it’s been so long

It says 9yrs ago in the screenshot, which is probably itself a few years old. If bitcoiners are that bad at parsing information we're ngmi. When was the last time you heard someone mention gentoo?

People should know the politically incorrect history, not the one version taught at schools..

Tom Woods is your man in this case:

Luke is unquestionably uniquešŸ˜…

Anyway, what is the blacklist for?

lmao, it's so funny how much Luke triggers you guys

It was a lie then too. Just because lies are old doesn't make them true
