personally i think core maintainers should have left the default unchanged and if node operators wanted to increase it manually they could

i also think node operators should have more options, in general, one of the reasons i donate my time to building out opensats

all that said, i do not think changing the default will “kill bitcoin” or represents a major change to the network, these transactions are valid and being confirmed regardless, lots of fear peddling that is unproductive

easy offline signer using an old phone or tablet is a cool concept

supports bitcoin and monero

yea so users wouldnt be able to “transfer/buy/sell” inscriptions

anyone can hard fork without permission

is there an increased likelihood of a hard fork with real support? i think no

individual miners running datum choose which transactions are included in the blocks they mine

they can choose to mine spam

would probably increase mining centralization but would reduce protocol level censorship risk due to better privacy

which devs are commies?

how does ocean stop spam?

we are not

all opensats grants are listed on our website

dont feel like arguing definitions, in this case lets go with non monetary transactions

would adding confidential transactions to bitcoin mitigate spam?

yup, looking into it

I don’t have the skills to do a proper analysis on Core v. Knots. The arguments on both side are compelling but the Knots side feels more genuine and Core comes off as a bit elitist. Doesn’t mean Core is wrong (necessarily), could just mean Knots is fighting a better forward guard.

Is anyone keeping a score card of devs and thought leaders positions on this? Some people I really respect in the space and look to for guidance are nostr:nprofile1qqsg86qcm7lve6jkkr64z4mt8lfe57jsu8vpty6r2qpk37sgtnxevjcpzpmhxue69uhkummnw3ezumrpdejqz9thwden5te0dehhxarjv4kxjar9wvhx7un89jln3c nostr:nprofile1qqs9pk20ctv9srrg9vr354p03v0rrgsqkpggh2u45va77zz4mu5p6ccpz4mhxue69uhhyetvv9ujuerpd46hxtnfduhszrnhwden5te009skyafwd4jj7y78xzn nostr:nprofile1qqsvnvvlln2ru6jlyweayugxecv7ftfdlzd6zqca63sh7x6ercggjegpzpmhxue69uhkummnw3ezuamfdejsz9mhwden5te0wfjkccte9e3h2unjv4h8gtnx095ssvg6v4 nostr:nprofile1qqsyx708d0a8d2qt3ku75avjz8vshvlx0v3q97ygpnz0tllzqegxrtgpr3mhxue69uhkummnw3ezucnfw33k76twv4ezuum0vd5kzmqpz3mhxue69uhkummnw3ezummcw3ezuer9wcyntgnq nostr:nprofile1qqsvf646uxlreajhhsv9tms9u6w7nuzeedaqty38z69cpwyhv89ufcqprpmhxue69uhhyetvv9ujuumwdae8gtnnda3kjctvqyf8wumn8ghj7ur4wfcxcetsv9njuetn58f5nv nostr:nprofile1qqsqfjg4mth7uwp307nng3z2em3ep2pxnljczzezg8j7dhf58ha7ejgprpmhxue69uhhqun9d45h2mfwwpexjmtpdshxuet5qyt8wumn8ghj7un9d3shjtnswf5k6ctv9ehx2aqnz0fd0 nostr:nprofile1qqsywt6ypu57lxtwj2scdwxnyrl3sry9typcstje65x7rw9a2e5nq8spz4mhxue69uhk2er9dchxummnw3ezumrpdejqzrthwden5te0dehhxtnvdakq77p088 nostr:nprofile1qqsw3znfr6vdnxrujezjrhlkqqjlvpcqx79ys7gcph9mkjjsy7zsgygpz4mhxue69uhhyetvv9ujumt0wd68ytnsw43qz9rhwden5te0wfjkccte9ejxzmt4wvhxjmc3ncrk5

i do not feel comfortable telling people to run knots until it has better review and release processes in place

if you do not want to relay larger op return transactions then run core v29 (the most recent version of core) and do not update to v30 when it is released

alternatively you can run v30 with a modified config file

i think luke, mechanic, and most core contributors mean well and care about bitcoin

long term i want to see more well reviewed bitcoin implementations exist, more choices for node operators is strictly better, this is one of the reasons i have donated my time to build out opensats

i think this ‘debate’ has mostly devolved into social attacks and is mostly unproductive

i do not think it matters much for the global bitcoin network which client you run, in this specific situation

i have said much on this topic in the past, use the search feature if you are curious

6.8% is high but not horrible

true but i assumed he meant user facing

i am pretty sure most end users will not use freedom tools, a minority will prioritize it, and that is my focus, but would be great to be wrong

doubt it but we are trending in the right direction

nope, zap stream is under constant ddos, we will next week

tswift will save us

are bitcoiners going to be fighting with each other this entire bull run or is it just a phase

i spent 27k sats to vibe a site to track a 5555 sats prize 😂

probably

but shareholder trust is important, and he is playing with fire

all is fair in love, war, and global decentralized free markets

lots of people are worried about lack of “reach” posting on nostr

the reality is if you post good shit it will end up everywhere else

stay humble and stack sats

relentlessly

it is impossible to ban self custody

yea, if we do it we want to make sure the ux is clean and there is a long to do list at the moment
