Why have any limit on OP_RETURN? I want to upload ripped DVDs. 80MB'ers are censoring me
We should allow any transaction without any rules. The ability to enforce any rules is a slippery slope.
how does one run out of numbers?
In a protocol designed to be resistant to censorship, the capacity for users/entities to selectively associate or disassociate with each other does not undermine the protocol's resistance to censorship. Instead, this flexibility, including the freedom to avoid interactions with certain users or use cases, is a fundamental aspect that reinforces the protocol's censorship-resistant nature.
Users/entities exercising this optionality is as much an attack on the underlying protocol as roads are an attack on the automobile.
For open systems, I disagree.
In an open system, If they maintain a majority of protocol traffic then it's a market decision. Which of course means I'm not against a community backlash. A backlash or boycott is an important check and balance in a free market. Optionality *is* what makes the protocol censorship resistant.
I just want to impress on people that the drama that's happening is proof positive that the open design of the protocol is working *perfectly*. None of what's happening should call the censorship resistance of the protocol(s) into question. They aren't "attacks on the protocol". They are entirely predictable and exactly what the protocols were designed to handle.
They are as much attacks on the protocol(s) as the pavement is an attack on an automobile.
Mutiny works great. You will still need a LN address from somewhere else. And to send zaps you have to periodically open the app. But it works really well for what it is - a fully self custody wallet
I misread. I thought you were saying it's unfortunate there are multiple implementations. My bad
A protocols censorship resistance is not in question if specific users of the protocol censor.
NoStrudel is amazing
when did Bitcoin switch to a proof-of-drama consensus mechanism?
I generally like to be more specific when talking about Stallman's claims 😄
I might be incorrectly using the term "value prop", to be honest.
For me personally, the hard money aspects are equally as important as the censorship resistance. And both of those things only exist because it's decentralized. In my mind decentralization is like the cornerstone that holds the whole thing up which is why I called it the value prop. but that's probably incorrect usage
yea I mean I guess I can't argue against what you think is the value prop. value is personal at the end of the day.
could argue decentralization is the value prop and censorship resistance is a byproduct 🤷♂️
