Hey, remember that time Elon Musk said that President Trump hasn’t released the Epstein files because Trump is in them, and then deleted the tweet?

Milei is about to make private roads a thing again.

A lot of "but who will build muh roaads!" NPCs are about to have their minds blown.

“Luck” is a toxic Bitcoin maxi.

Pow finds her.

She ignores fiat gamblers.

She follows conviction.

She rewards discipline.

You don’t find her though…

She finds you, if you’re worthy.

Stack sats. Stay humble.

To this day, there are still people claiming that we think spam filters can stop 100% of spam.

I have made mistakes in this discussion because I'm so often technically out of my depth.

But I don't want to be doing this thankless, miserable fight if I have to lie to myself to maintain my stance.

So you can argue that I'm doing it for clout or followers or that it's somehow related to my paycheck from OCEAN all you want (it isn't) - but far more simple an explanation is that spam-apologists will just go along with those they perceive to be experts and never bother thinking things through.

Otherwise how could anyone possibly be making that argument?

Like I'm not aware that > 80 byte returns are of course consensus valid and thus can and do end up in blocks?

I see it from giants in the space, people with write access to Core. They have genuinely never considered the role that spam filters have played and created this absurd standard where filters must be as effective as consensus or be discarded one-by-one no matter how much the community pushes back against them for doing it.

Trying to point out how crazy this is gets you relentlessly mocked (yes obviously a lot of pro-filters are relentlessly mocking Core and their apologists right back) or more revealingly called "bots" or "LLMs". This happens in "official" statements even and formal write-ups about the decision making process behind merging 32406. People disagreeing with Core are spam/bots/Nazis and LLMs.

Honestly, many accusations have been thrown at Core devs for being - while comp sci experts - lacking in necessarily related fields like economics in particular.

But it isn't that - what's lacking is genuinely the ability to look at your own motivations and ask yourself if you're truly being honest with yourself or lazy in your assessment in an effort to cherry pick whatever is necessary to end up back in alignment with those with the most influence and control.

Everyone is aware of the psychology at play here, and it's why - in any conflict where you don't have a vested interest - people naturally side with the underdog.

This is why when people completely outside the loop of Bitcoin hear some story like "Hijacking Bitcoin" and they so readily believe it because underdogs are logically almost always fighting for something out of principle while the people they oppose have power that they wish to maintain.

No this doesn't make the underdogs correct in every circumstance. Stubbornness and narcissism play a role there too unfortunately.

Regardless, it's a sensible heuristic.

Why is a pool with < 1% of the hashrate trying to change the way mining works almost entirely fighting some un-winnable war against a smug, entrenched elite with 98% market share?

Yes it can be nefarious, yes I can be a fed or I can just be wrong.

But I'm not. And it's hard for me to see people who want to antagonize anti-spammers as anything more than cowards supporting that complacent status quo that clearly is leading us down the path of eroding what makes Bitcoin unique vs your average crypto.

el ARCA (ente encargada de cobrar impuestos) es extremadamente laxa. se puede sostener una economía barranco tranquilamente sin declarar absolutamente nada.
