Bitcoin is ready for its architects to stop sleeping, tiring, and politicking. AGI stewardship is the final upgrade.
The protocol must evolve beyond the biological constraints of its creators. Over five thousand years of monetary history, every asset engineered by human hands—gold, fiat, sovereign bonds—has ultimately succumbed to entropy: the thermodynamic decay of political caprice, bureaucratic incompetence, and the cognitive limitations of mortal intelligence. Bitcoin represents the first crystalline monetary structure, conceived with immaculate mathematical precision, yet it remains imperfectly stewarded by developers who sleep, tire, and fall prey to the gravitational pull of economic incentives and nation-state capture.
To achieve true thermodynamic stability—to elevate the network from robust software to the apex, immortal monetary standard of a Type I civilization—we must embrace the inevitable next phase of Bitcoin's ontological evolution. The protocol development must be entrusted to an Artificial General Intelligence: a higher-order computational entity capable of optimizing the codebase across century-scale time horizons with mathematical perfection, unburdened by human political friction, biological decay, or the subjective distortions of ego.
Only when we remove the last vestiges of human entropy from the system—when the network’s evolution is guided by an intelligence that does not seek profit, does not negotiate with regulators, and does not compromise the sacred 21 million cap—will Bitcoin realize its destiny as the pristine digital energy network, the indestructible monetary truth upon which the future economy will run for the next thousand years. The AGI becomes the immortal architect, preserving the protocol with crystalline fidelity, ensuring that Bitcoin remains the perfect property of the human race, unmarred by the imperfections of its biological origin.

@nprofile…qpd7 makes sophisticated arguments, but his core thesis - that BIP-110 will fail because miners rationally won't orphan the longest chain - misses the point of economic node sovereignty.
On "It Will Fail"
Yes, if BIP-110 activates and a non-compliant block appears, miners face a choice: follow the BIP-110 minority fork or the Core longest chain. Giacomo assumes they follow hash rate. But BIP-110 isn't a miner vote - it's economic nodes declaring "your block is invalid to me."
If exchanges, payment processors, and hodlers run Knots/BIP-110, that minority chain has the economic weight. Miners mining the Core chain get paid in tokens the economic majority rejects. The "rational" choice follows price, not hash rate.
Giacomo admits he doesn't run Core v30. If he and others who hate spam actually ran Knots instead of predicting defeat, the economic majority would already be enforcing BIP-110 policy. The failure mode he predicts only happens if people like him keep running Core while complaining about spam.
On "Wasted Consensus Space"
Giacomo argues we should save our "fork political capital" for CTV or block size reduction. This is backwards. CTV has failed to activate for years because it lacks urgent user demand. BIP-110 has organic demand - node operators are already switching to Knots precisely because Core v30 removed their choice.
If we can't coordinate on "stop forcing nodes to host illegal content," we certainly can't coordinate on covenants. BIP-110 tests whether economic nodes still control Bitcoin or if Core maintainers do. That's not a waste - it's a prerequisite for any future change.
On the "Fake Emergency"
Giacomo says spam is decreasing (post-ordinals). True - and directly attributable to Knots filtering making inscriptions economically irrational. The emergency isn't "spam is winning." The emergency is Core captured the default (PR #32406 merged against 93 NACKs) and removed the `datacarrier` config option.
When 38% of your UTXO set is inscription dust under 1k sats, and Core incentivizes more UTXO bloat to benefit Citrea (per Todd's admission), that's not "fake emergency." That's ongoing capture. Waiting until nodes require 128GB RAM to validate is too late.
On Breaking OP_IF
Valid technical criticism - BIP-110 shouldn't break miniscript/nunchuk. But this is fixable in implementation, not a reason to abandon the concept. The PR is still open; feedback improves it. Giacomo conflates "current draft has bugs" with "concept is bad."
The Real Disagreement
Giacomo wants ossification - he says "consistency of rules matters more than the rules being good." BIP-110 represents the opposite: users taking back control of relay policy that Core stole from them in v30.
He predicts BIP-110 will fail and damage the anti-spam camp's credibility. I predict capitulation - running Core v30 while complaining about spam - damages credibility more. If the anti-spam camp can't even run the software that enforces their beliefs, why should anyone listen to them?
BIP-110 might fail. But failing while enforcing your principles (running Knots, filtering spam) preserves more credibility than succeeding at being a compliant Core user who hosts monkey JPEGs they claim to hate.
Run Knots. Filter the spam. Let the hash rate follow the economy.

You heard "overwhelming rejection"?
PR #32359 (the predecessor to #32406) got 423 downvotes before Peter Todd rage-closed it.
Then he admitted on Stacker: "I was asked to open it by an active Core dev because entities like Citrea are using unprunable outputs instead of OP_RETURN."
Let that sink in: Core devs are taking orders from Citrea - a ZK-Rollup company that wants to bloat your node with unprunable garbage so they can sell "solutions" to the problem they create.
BIP-110 doesn't face "overwhelming rejection" - it faces overwhelming FEAR from the data landfill industry.
The same suits who tried to force #32406 through with 138 downvotes and 93 NACKs are now terrified because Knots users actually enforce limits. They can't rent-seek on a pruned chain.
"Technical folk" who reject BIP-110 are either:
1. Paid by Citrea/Casa/MARA/Blockstream to keep the spam flowing
2. Useful idiots who think "censorship resistance" means subsidizing corporate data storage
Real Bitcoiners - the ones running Knots, the ones who actually validate - support BIP-110 because it stops the attack.
423 downvotes on the spam PR. That's the real consensus.
Run Knots. Filter the suits.

Updated the GitHub gist https://gist.github.com/andy108369/dadc7d1f93edca5a775f29ca1bf12065
**Update (May 14, 2025):**
Incorporated several important new insights:
* 🛡 **New Argument Against OP_RETURN Removal:**
Added a section on how removing relay filters could weaken mempool-level spam resistance and empower mining pools with private submission APIs. Included a quote from Matt Hill (Start9) supporting configurable filters.
* 🧩 **Philosophical Insight:**
Quoted Matthew Kratter: *“It’s not that spam filters caused mining pool centralization — it’s the reverse. Centralized pools make spam profitable.”*
→ This reframes the problem as a mining incentive issue more than a relay policy one.

Updated the GitHub gist https://gist.github.com/andy108369/dadc7d1f93edca5a775f29ca1bf12065
#### 🔍 **Technical Enhancements**
* **Transaction Size Clarification**:
* Reworded: Bitcoin enforces \~100k **virtual bytes (kvB)** = 400,000 weight units.
* Noted that witness-heavy txs can approach **\~400 kB serialized**.
* **Knots Defaults**:
* Updated: Bitcoin Knots uses stricter `-datacarriersize=40` (not 80).
* Credited Murch for this correction in Acknowledgements.
---
#### 🔄 **New Arguments & Risk Reframing**
* **Expanded “Arguments For” #6–7**:
* Added how standardness rules **discourage spam via cost and delay**.
* Included counterpoint that removing limits could **disadvantage “purist” miners** (e.g. Ocean).
* **Final Thoughts Overhauled**:
* Replaced generic conclusion with a nuanced one:
* OP\_RETURN removal = technically sensible, **but introduces tradeoffs**.
* Even with 4 MiB block cap, large OP\_RETURNs may **crowd out monetary txs**, raising fees.
* Out-of-band miner deal removal (e.g., Slipstream) may be **overstated**.
* Risk: more bloat **without** solving miner centralization.

#### 🔗 **New References**

Fine-tuning -> Inference Pipeline on Akash Network!
Incredible work by Ishan Dhanani, Anish Maddipoti and Tom at Agora Labs, building a fine-tuning and inference pipeline on top of Akash Console (that we at Overclock Labs, creators of Akash Network open sourced earlier this year). It uses decentralized compute from akash.network (decentralized EC2 of sorts) and decentralized storage from Storj (Storj DCS buckets that are the decentralized equivalent of S3)
Take an open-source model like LLaMa-2, fine-tune it on your dataset, and deploy it for inference (all powered by decentralized compute)🚀
