"What people relay through their own Bitcoin full nodes and the standards they use to prioritize txs and verify blocks is their own business."
Yes, if somebody wants to limit their own view to mempool, nobody is stopping you.
"It is you 🫵🏻 who wants to mandate what nodes have to relay."
You just stated that you would like to prevent completely valid transactions from relaying just because you don't like them. You forgot that every Bitcoin transaction is a digital message. But luckily, Bitcoin is designed to be cencorship resistant, so even if you don't like the message there's not much you can do to censor them.
"...then there is literally no reason to remove filters."
That is true that it really doesn't matter much if there is a filter or not. The problem is that now when the fees are low and people who don't know better are willing to pay the fee to put data onchain they do it often very inefficient way. That's why there is OP_RETURN.
You can put data onchain with many way but the OP_RETURN is the best and least "harmful" way.
Are you with me with this?
"Getting rid of the limit completely is just asking for some Spammy L2 to start dumping on Bitcoin."
So if it would be removed, would you immediately start using your bitcoin to "spam" the chain?
Block space is valuable, and the miner does all the work to mine the block, what are you or anybody to say what they put in it if the transactions are all consensus valid? There's a name for people who are trying to restrict others.
Like I said, tiny economic transactions will always be more economical to make than transactions that put arbitrary data onchain. This will be always driving "spam" transactions elsewhere.
I don't want bigger block sizes, they could be even smaller, that's the filter! I just don't see any point filtering my own visibility of valid transactions. Others can do whatever they please of course. I'm for freedom, what about you?
What signal? I see only people who are trying to dictate how others transact. In my view, it's against freedom and Bitcoin first princibles.
My tiny monetary transaction will always be cheaper than your shitty jpegs, that's the only "filter" than can ever work.
Bitcoin doesn't give a shit. Those who run the node, gives
Laws, regulations, restrictions, fines, fares, fees, taxes, licenses, permits etc. all prevents competition, business growth and people from starting new businesses.
Yeah, only one "node". Cashu is better because anybody can run a mint.
But it has some other cool aspects.
Found something interesting:

Apparently it has been built and developed for 9 years. Seems pretty similar to #ecash
Cool, but centralized
Well, when speaking about AI, I'm not talking about LLM's or content generators.
I think AI is something that can create things that humans haven't created before, or make deductive conclusions or discoveries without humans needing it to load it half Internet worth of data before.
This being said, I don't think we have AI yet, just modeled search engines and simple content generators.
There's no US gold reserves, nothing to convert.. https://video.nostr.build/fefa38024453bced9ba80f9307433331a505edcdb085f071925dc3173076560c.mp4
Then they wouldn't have made so many mistakes
I think we should stop trying to make it more confusing
We'll call 'em gigamegs
Protected my capital from debasement. It's still the most cool thing we can do with it!
Bitcoin is replacing central banks and becoming a base money. Ethereum is not, it's completely fiat system.

Yet another solid rant by nostr:nprofile1qqs8fl79rnpsz5x00xmvkvtd8g2u7ve2k2dr3lkfadyy4v24r4k3s4spzdmhxue69uhhwmm59e6hg7r09ehkuef0s9jd25.
Spam must be dealt with, not encouraged.
If the filters would work, then we wouldn't have rare pepes, NFT's, ordinals, runes etc. on Bitcoin. Only filters that work are the fees and the block size.
