Well done nostr:nprofile1qqszq6eh3h2gyyjc0647hhrykqzsnvd0gyhcgkd5s60lp6wp0usqpmcpzemhxue69uhkummnw3ezuetpwd5kv7fwv3jj7qgnwaehxw309ac82unsd3jhqct89ejhxtcpr4mhxue69uhhyetvv9ujucnfw35x2ctkv4hzuum0vd5kzmp0agh2u8
nostr:npub1yp4n0rw5sgf9sl4ta0wxfvq9pxc67sf0s3vmfp5l7r5uzleqqrhsyskqyk don't get manipulated by bad actors
I see you are looking for the truth but the bad actors got you.
Check Matt Kratter video.

Don't trust, verify.

nostr:npub1yp4n0rw5sgf9sl4ta0wxfvq9pxc67sf0s3vmfp5l7r5uzleqqrhsyskqyk Calle who is applauding your video after someone brainwashed you to essentially support spam
because he is supporting Core v30 and spam on Bitcoin
turned out to not like spam on his project.
Isn't that funny?
Excellent video.
Not really. This guy’s a classic example of the bell curve meme. Currently in the middle of the curve. It seems he’s pretty new to the debate and has much to uncover. Hopefully he ends up at the right side of the curve eventually.
He's approaching it rationally with an open mind, which is better than 90% of the people debating it. You've just said he's wrong without making any arguments, which is what the 90% is doing.
I could go into detail about every aspect he got wrong — I’ve been doing that since 2023, and it’s honestly getting tiresome. I also helped put together this site to give proper context for anyone genuinely interested. Feel free to dig through it, but don’t assume the rest of us haven’t done our homework (this is exactly how the Core side operates). This conflict’s been simmering for over two years, and only in the last six months has it started catching mainstream attention. The short version: Core is compromised. They’ve been screwing with our money long before Core 30. About 95% of their so-called “technical” arguments have been thoroughly rebutted or explained with context — and they consistently turn out to be gaslighting, lies by omission, or plain concern trolling.
Midwit bell curve guy reporting for duty. It’s actually pretty funny how he’s right in the middle of the curve after being in the left part a just a short while ago. Don’t bother watching the whole thing, maybe just the first 8-10 minutes for the lols.
I’ve already upgraded to Bitcoin Core 30, but I’ve set the OP_RETURN limit to 80 byte
I agree — choosing the more expensive option makes little sense if spammers are going to abuse it anyway. Better to keep the chain clean. ⚡
Well though opinion. Appreciate the author who spent time and energy to have this understood. Proof of work.
Run a node. Choose implementation you like, set it up you like. We are all Bitcoin
This is overall not bad, imo.
My main criticisms to nostr:nprofile1qqszq6eh3h2gyyjc0647hhrykqzsnvd0gyhcgkd5s60lp6wp0usqpmcpzamhxue69uhkv6tvw3jhytnwdaehgu3wwa5kuegpzamhxue69uhkummnw3ezuervwdhh27np9ekx7mq3x3s2u would be:
1) it propagates without nuances the "experts vs demagogues" false framing, which is mostly made up (the "Knots side" includes experienced developers like Luke or SuperTestnet, who are way more technical than some influencers on the "Core side" like Shinobi or Lopp, who are more skilled at popularization and mass communication, letting alone that Dunning-Kruger doesn't just apply to computer science illiteracy, but also to economic, social and legal illiteracy, which also abunds on both sides),
2) it completely misrepresents Citrea's involvement, depicting a bunch of literal shitcoin scammers as "legit", and claiming they "need" that specific encoding method (which they actually adapted just out of laziness and lack of care), and they are "hoping to move to less harmful methods", which they publicly stated they aren't even considering at the moment,
3) it omits a lot of nasty triggers by some influential people on the "Core side", which are imo at the root of the current division and drama: the "it isn't spam if it's valid or pays fees" nonsense, the "mempool policy are censorship" nonsense, the "spam filtering in Core never existed" nonsense, the vitriolic and obsessive witch hunt against important and good projects for Bitcoin like OCEAN and Start9, the gross mismanagement of the github repo, the fixation on mempool changes as a way to show dominance and regulate personal beefs, etc.
For the rest, pretty good. I agree with the overall takeaways:
- search for the truth instead of parroting the slogans of your tribe
- mine on OCEAN and DATUM (and maybe tomorrow SV2)
- run your node with your own mempool policies (I'm filtering "inscriptions" since 2022)
- keep looking for possible long-term mitigations to spam (witness discount removal soft forks, fast-to-update user-side spam-filtering policies outside of Core, etc.)
Great video. Finally one without the tribal feel behind it.
Agree, the most important thing is not to divide the #bitcoin community over that issue but keep an healthy dialogue since it is a complex topic to understand for non tech people. The first thing is "do no harm", this is why I still keep Core 28 until I have a better understanding of the situation. I will start exploring also Stratum V2 mining and wait and see how Knots develops.
Hello, care to chat?
This is a good video thanks for sharing.
I don’t understand why this sort of information wasn’t being pumped out left and right during these arguments to make things clear for everybody.
Everyone was sharing fud based buzz word talking points.
I may be able to help explain why… this was really really hard to do.
I think most techie people wouldn’t be able to do it because they wouldn’t understand what I don’t know- and it’s incredibly hard not to use the buzz words (because that’s what the different parts are called)
And then once you learn the words you quickly forget that most people don’t know what that means (similar to how it’s probably baffling to you why everyone doesn’t get Bitcoin- yet at some point in recent years you didn’t) especially if you do this stuff all day every day
Blowing up the OP_Return limit and allowing more than one OP_Return per txn does not fix anything or make Bitcoin functions better, only exposes an attack vector unnecessarily.
This will drive up transaction fees, potentially pricing out smaller, every-day financial transactions and making Bitcoin less accessible for its original P2P cash use case.
You should learn more about this before pretending everything is fine.
The video seems to keep skipping every few seconds. Does anyone else notice this? Sorry, not willing to watch with that effect

Core v30 is an attack on Bitcoin run by shitcoiners.
But we have to do something! can't just stand still! Bitcoin is money! 🤣😂🤣
