Discussion
Hume's guillotine
“Bitcoin is just a database…. Who are you to define what Bitcoin is? [That’s for *us* to decide].” @shitobi, Bitcoin developer general asshole and turd-biscuit. 💩

Interesting that core talks about the dangers of mining centralization as a justification for the op_return PR. Yet Luke and Mechanic are the ones who actually took real action and started a mining company, while core's solution is to open the flood gates to shitcoiners.
what do u want em to do instead? say they are ceo of bitcoin and everyone who disagrees with em is a shitcoiner.. oh wait :P
I'm not sure what they should do. But start by not opening the flood gates to shitcoiners. Core prefers the lazy way out. Of course, that's human nature. But they need to be better.
Luke is the CEO of Ocean not Bitcoin, and Peter Todd is literally a shitcoiner. https://youtube.com/clip/Ugkx2pwwRNJLWNZ1n3bNgI_QMkIUTZqckF2D?si=7utyGgexZot0hJvK
removing the config option for nodes to decide what txs they can accept is unacceptable. if you wanna fill your node with garbage, i have no issue with that, it's your decision. but you cannot dictate that i do the same on my own node.
Respect 2da The Staunch and The True!

I’m glad Mechanic is not the enemy. 😅
Great speech Mechanic. “The database is a byproduct of using bitcoin as money”. That and the nodes that define bitcoin. 👏
Switching my node to Knots.
Even Mechanic points out this is not ideal. The core devs love this. When it was brought up during the panel they all enthusiastically agreed that people who don't like this should run knots. This outcome is a win for them because then they make their shitcoiner friends happy and they know the majority of nodes, including the big economic players (exchanges and such), will continue to run core. The fight needs to be for core, but I will switch to knots as well if that's what it comes down to.
What if you just don’t install that particular update. Wouldn’t that save the troubles of having to switch to knots?
Yup. Ie im still on 28.1 and dont plan to upgrade. Giving up and going to knots is not needed.
That's definitely an option. Pretty much how ossification works. It's not so much about the inconvenience of upgrading to knots. It's more about conceding to a group of devs who are attempting to take core down the wrong path. Core is important software, these guys are trying to make it a plaything for shitcoiners, and silence node runners by preventing any further debate (see clip below). I'm a user of core, I'd like to remain a user of core. But I'm also drawing a line in the sand when it comes to shitcoining on bitcoin. I'm done with compromising on this. https://youtube.com/clip/UgkxuA1HEEDYh3CIXxRZjCSNPQzBUTWAc3wq?si=pSWqd1iIgTXHR-Ly
True! Got it, thanks for elaborating
Sure. But long-term, I don’t think that is a good idea. There are necessary updates in any software application that will need to happen just to maintain it.
Core is already cooked

Yes, but as a signaling mechanism, it makes sense. Plenty of people will not upgrade to latest Core simply because of laziness or business and some because they are against the change in Core. But impossible to know which it is.
If the bitcoin blockchain is just a database, then so is my brain, and every ad agency has the right to inject content into my consciousness without my consent.
Beautiful speech, too bad you had to skip to the end.
Kudos nostr:nprofile1qythwumn8ghj7ct5d3shxtnwdaehgu3wd3skuep0qyt8wumn8ghj7ct4w35zumn0wd68yvfwvdhk6tcqyp60l3gucvq4pnmekm9nzmf6zh8nx24jngu0aj0tfp9tz4gad5v9v94ulq2, extremely well articulated and truthful.
Great Speech from Bitcoin Mechanic!

Fantastic, I only wish he was allowed the 10 minute time slot 👊🏻
I have two things to say if you don't like people promoting onchain spam for personal gain and then gaslighting the people against it.
-Run a node.
-Run knots.

Great talk. Shame didn't manage to give the full speech.
Isn't bitcoin for your enemies?
When you listen to the Shinobi side, you can follow along and they make sense, almost like you get hypnotised by the technicalities. But then you take a step back and realise... Wait... My right to configure is being taken away? That's fucked up!
Yah. It’s all complex for little benefit
