If you’re unfamiliar with the sketchy way Core devs handled the datacarriersize bug in 2023, this picture explains it perfectly:

This morning I saw a post that 3% of bitcoin nodes were running knots, this evening I saw a post that 4% of nodes were running knots. Neat.

Did anyone ask Kailey Welch what she thinks about op_return?

Remember when everyone was shitting on Saylor because he didn’t want to fund the bitcoin core devs? Well I think we owe him an apology… if you find them, they will build. What’s it called when something won’t stop growing even if it’s at a detriment to itself? Cancer.

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.

Nope, run a node with bitcoin knots and mine with ocean

It's our duty to plug in ASICs and collect the scammer sats when and where we can while sweeping to cold storage. Play fiat well enough to survive and pass our stacks on to our children. Then we steward the money into a bright orange future.

"Keep your spam out of my mempool!"

Are you running a lightning node? What if a channel counterparty tries to defraud you by publishing an old channel state? In that case you need accurate fee estimation.

Your justice transaction will have to beat the dickbutts in miners' mempools. In order to beat dickbutts, your full node needs to know about dickbutts and what they're bidding. If you're ignorant of dickbutts you'll get fucked by dickbutts.

What's your favorite Bitcoin merch/clothing?

People that think that the only way that #bitcoin mining can survive is extra fees from inscriptions, don’t understand free markets, nor the difficulty adjustment.

If all prices fall to the marginal cost of production in a free market, and bitcoin is the first global free market that has ever existed, then block rewards are alone enough to keep a robust market for mining.

Why: because relative to Bitcoin (open, decentralized, secure, protocol, bounded by energy) the rewards are the same in 2130 as they are today because all prices are falling forever.

It’s hard to even imagine the abundance in that world or “money” that you would need because your reference frame is now and the past, but can you imagine our descendants (from that place)- ever changing back to this one.

Just a friendly reminder that creating different incentives, changes behaviour.

Had a coffee with a Girl today and she told me that she bought Ethereum, when I told her it's a shitcoin and to dca Bitcoin into a Bitbox she said its to risky.

Still lots to do 😮‍💨
