I think one thing is pretty clear, there is no consensus at the moment on this OP_RETURN issue.

Someone told me

Move to knots or get shot

Knots is better, why use Core?

yeah it’s abundantly clear, they should close the pr

This is what makes bitcoin different than everything else

Option 1) build a cabal of existing devs to agree to the PR, shut out any dissenting devs, spend your credibility on an irrelevent issue and hoist the change on the public with no explanation

Option 2) engage in a public debate, preserve your team's credibility for something meaningful, accept defeat if you cannot build consensus

Option 3) same as option 1, but intentionally destroy the team's credibility to fragmemt the community so you can shoehorn compromising fork-requiring features into what you claim is "real bitcoin" so it can be coopted by governments and banks as an oppressive tool of surveillance and control.

The consensus is whatever gets mined on the longest chain with most PoW. That's how bitcoin works.

that's for the blockchain, not client level

You can run whatever client you prefer, no consensus required.

no shit, why are you replying this to me?

Is there a good steelman of removing the byte constraint?

That the limit is not only ineffective and easily circumvented, but also incentivizes more harmful behavior

The best I've heard is that the alternative option is to pollute the UTXOset with forever unspendable transactions. This is bad. To be clear, by removing the byte constraint, it doesn't remove this alternative option; but at least, it would give someone the option to take one for the team and pay 4 times as much fee in order to not pollute the UTXOset.

To me, the incentives just don't line up with a realistic expectation that removing the byte constraint will have any significant positive effect. And, we can't really know what all the negative effects might be until after the fact.

*I don't know if this counts as a good steelman; but, it's the best I've heard yet.

Adding some kind of exponential cost for every increase in published data size could form part of a solution, IMHO.

It wasn't added by consensus.

That's important.

I would say that's how it is 🤷‍♂️

Fly ball….

Caught

I just hope everyone has fun

Miners decide what's in blocks. Node runners decide what's in their mempools. I will run the software that respects this.

Counterparty XCP (SOG, Rarepepes and many others) works just fine with the current OP_RETURN limits.

There is no need to debate changing it unless your goal is to attack the network which will end with a hardfork resuting in the creation of a Blackrock centralized, pos shitcoin pretending to be bitcoin.

🔥🔥🔥 Down with Bitcoin C(wh)ore 🔥🔥🔥

There doesn't need to be, it's not a consensus issue.

Let’s provide clarity

Bitcoin isn’t a software project with monetary implications. It’s a monetary revolution that just happens to be built in code.

the consensus is there's no consensus yet

I was told that consensus if found by “humming” what about the non-hummers? Do they get a voice?
