Bitcoin Spam Apologists:

Stop moralizing this! If someone is willing to pay for something, then someone else will provide that thing at a price.

Me:

If consensual payment always trumps ethical integrity, we’re gonna have a bad time.

I won’t stop moralizing this.

Imagine arguing that trying to filter out Signal from Noise “just doesn’t work”.

If a Ham Radio operator isn’t getting good signal, does he just give up?

Fuck no.

The Road to Nihilism is paved with Defeatism.

Eternal vigilance & defense is the price of Bitcoin. 🇺🇸🦅🫡

I’m demanding Analogy and Ethical Coding Credentials from the next Bitcoin Spam Apologist who asks me for Computer Programming Credentials.

“You’ve nevah beeeen to computer coding camp??” 🤡🤣

Dear Fellow Bitcoiners,

We will reap what we sow.

Everyone has a good reason to run a node.

Godspeed.

Some Bitcoiners mindlessly cheerlead for:

Core removing the Op_Return limit🚩

More unnecessary soft forks for Bitcoin like Covenants🚩

Uncle Sam buying Bitcoin via taxation/money printing🚩(who is selling BTC to Govts btw?)

Tether & MSTR’s BTC accumulation hacks🚩

The fact Vitalik mentioned using the Op_Return for a meta protocol concept back in 2014 and now Core wants to remove the Op_Return limit around the same time that Vitalik “randomly” praises Bitcoin’s simplicity should raise questions.

🚩🚩🚩

People will run filters you do not like.

People will run filters you do not like

Wtf

Half baked Prediction:

Vitalik tries to use Bitcoin’s Op_Return space for ETH data to facilitate one last affinity scam pump to bailout the last bagholders on his sinking Ethereum ship.

Don’t participate in Vitalik’s bullshit schemes if he tries something like this.

What is with Bitcoiners who are always trying to change Bitcoin but never look in the mirror to change themselves or zoom out to see what needs changing in Clown World??

Bitcoin is the Constant.

Stop monkeying with the Constant.

🇺🇸🦅🫡

I didn’t make up this timeline:

Back in 2014 Vitalik talked about using Op_Return for a meta protocol like Ethereum (Per Shinobi on WBD)

Later, Vitalik launches Ethereum.

Today in Q2 2025, Vitalik says Bitcoin’s simplicity is great and Core wants to remove Op_Return limits.

🚩🚩

Bitcoiners,

On the most recent episode of What Bitcoin Did starting around 18:30,

Shinobi says back in 2014 Vitalik Buterin publicly discussed the concept of using Op_Return on Bitcoin for a meta protocol like Ethereum.

Days ago, Vitalik praised Bitcoin’s simplicity and Core removed Op_Return limits.

Bitcoin Spam Apologists:

You want the Miners to start filtering out Spam?!?! What’s next?!?! Are you gonna tell us we should start filtering our water and stop eating junk food?!?!

Bitcoiners who aren’t Nihilists:

Yes to all that.

🇺🇸🦅🫡

Filtration is to Water as Filtration is to Bitcoin.

Best practice is to use Filters for your Water and your Bitcoin. Treat your Body and Bitcoin like Sacred Temples.

Do your part to keep Spam off Bitcoin.

🇺🇸🦅🫡

Bitcoin Miners learning about the importance and benefits of Spam Filtration is sort of like Humans learning about the importance and benefits of Water Filtration.

My worry is Bitcoin Spam Apologists may still not know about the importance and benefits of Water Filtration.🤣

Godspeed.🇺🇸🦅🫡

Reasons for Bitcoin miners and non-miners running their own full nodes:

Promote quality control of blocks and relay channels.

Promote a high quality difficulty signal.

Promote low cost full nodes

For miners, create and optimize your own block template and decentralize block construction to resist tx censorship at larger pools that control the block template.

Verify incoming/outgoing Bitcoin txs and wallet balances.

Bitcoin Soft Forks like SegWit and Taproot have created a Bailey for SpamScammers that gets bigger with each Soft Fork.

These soft forks have allowed Bad Faith Bitcoin users to run a highly effective Motte and Bailey Fallacy attack on Bitcoin’s Development trajectory.

If you’re fine with Spam on Bitcoin, then why don’t you just remove all the Op_Return limits, remove all the other spam filters, and formalize all the changes with a hard fork.

I’m sure a bunch of people will follow you to the Bitcoin Spammers’ Paradise chain. 🤡

Wouldn’t it be awesome if we all just forwarded all of our garbage Email to each other? 🤡

Wouldn’t that be so cool?? 🤡🤡

Bitcoiner Spam Apologists probably think it would be really cool. 🤡🤡🤡
