He's been absolutely nailing it. Really stuck a butt plug in the cultist. Bitcoin culture is in a really sad state when a rando autist genious like Owen can stomp on the Hornet hive like this out of nowhere. So many other posts that are killer.
The replies are really bad.
I fuck will.
It's not working.

All i want for Christmas is for someone to explain the appeal of ordinals.
He's not wrong.
The question is... for whom ?
Just visualize punching the federal reserve. Guaranteed win.
They play by they rules. If Bitcoin can be changed because of your opinion, Bitcoin dies.
Fiat is an opinion.
This describes my relationship with and consumption of Pizza.
A common argument against the efforts by the Monero Project.
This is one of the key aspects that make it a community though. The fight against that optimization animates it.
A recent attempt at a randomX asic was torn appart and analyzed by the usual autistics. Some say it was just a sooped up cpu block, others say some minor improvements were developed such being the most dense server rack ever. Work on the next version of RandomX starts as soon as the threat is identified.
The fight itself is driving cpu technology innovation aswell. Optimization for Randomx, if it happens, has broad application outside of Monero in a way optimizing for sha256 does not. At the architecture and hardware level.
There isn't a Luke standard and a Laser standard and then finally a #Bitcoin standard.
There is only 1 #Bitcoin network and the standard is based on the implicit/explicit contracts of that network, not Luke's fork.

You have the right to join a pool or run a node that does what you want it to.
He claims in the current core implementation, limiting the byte size can be bypassed, and is, by ordinals. Knots has a fix for this apparently, that follows the strict byte limit. This limit can be adjusted back to 80 if you want, by the way.
Along with several other fixes in Knots, changes and weaknesess he sees in core, he is self advocating for these changes to be merged to core.
if there is a lie, the lie is that reducing the byte size in a core implementation can be bypassed somehow.
Haven't seen the fix code. But nothing so far counters that specific claim.
Bulletproofs, rings, privacy, all that could be done on a sidechain in the Monero way, the software stuff. But Monero people would still claim Asic reliance in the Bitcoin that backs it is a weakeness.
A future Asic supply chain or hash capture would mean capture of both Bitcoin and the Monero sidechain. Capture in the sense of censoring or disabling the sidechain, not breaking privacy.
RandomX solves a real threat that can't be replicated in a sidechain as described in bip300/1. Anyone can support the Monero network with a basic cpu. They would need an asic to support the Monero sidechain(Bitcoin)
Absolutely. Mechanically though randomx, a huge part of the project, cannot be imported to a bip301 sidechain.
Would still rely on BTC's ASIC's. Zcash port with default privacy might be just as good.
Quite easy going downhill.
Social media is going downhill fast.
