Now, I know you think what you&#39;re saying sounds good in theory, it&#39;s simply technically not feasible without massive structural changes.<br/><br/>Bitcoin&#39;s design prioritizes permissionless, censorship-resistant transfers of value, which inherently allows flexibility for data. That wasn&#39;t introduced with Core v30 -- that started with the Genesis block. <br/><br/>To get it done technically, you&#39;d need a hard fork where you&#39;d have to redefine the script language entirely. You&#39;d have to rip out taproot/segwit, remove opcodes and other fields where arbitrary data can be stored, create very strict templates (basically just to, from and amount). <br/><br/>If you don&#39;t do this, you are chasing the problem forever. In doing this, you also lock Bitcoin to that 200-220 million transaction throughput without revisiting the block size wars. There is a reason why this is a &#34;temporary soft fork&#34; -- because a permanent solution doesn&#39;t exist. 2026-07-02T20:39:50Z https://nostr.now/nevent1qqsgqh20aetpkq9vr339qr947rjprlc8ar4pa29gh3g0wm288t47ldgzyr8nuedux8gvxdapkqv54wdg8p3s70x5yd9uq2x6xq58zwyr97avqfh6ma3 In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqsqshlvpvjq5py6rmwxw50q0cvqypjzwqhl6ttey9nmsxlr8rcqvvqavk4w3'>nevent1q…k4w3</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>Technically, miners do have a reason if they are completely self-serving. The &#34;deterrent&#34; could actually lead to them collecting more fees. <br/><br/>Someone posed a nonsense question (how much for a 101kb transaction) to me on X that I did the math on -- chart below. First, that never happens: <br/><br/>&#34;Essentially 0%, overall and since Core v30 (Oct 2025).<br/><br/>Stats Sep 2025–Feb 2026: ~24.4M OP_RETURN txs, only 396 (~0.0016%) exceeded old 83B limit. Those averaged ~5.3KB; 10% &gt;10KB. No 101KB+ seen (historical max ~80KB). Fees keep large ones rare.<br/><br/>But second, as I also said in response, Bitcoin is the only chain in the world that matters. If someone wants something stored in perpetuity, they&#39;re going to pay whatever the fee is to make it happen in the rare case. Now, they&#39;ll just chunk it out so it fits under Mein Führer Dash&#39;s permitted size limits. <br/><br/> <img src="https://blossom.primal.net/c1d3e8c2700e1e05041bf09bebbbcf0c89d83eac2dd793238f4003b453b210d5.png"> <br/><br/><a href="https://x.com/jasonsvoboda/status/2072104929028915271">https://x.com/jasonsvoboda/status/2072104929028915271</a> 2026-07-02T20:00:31Z https://nostr.now/nevent1qqsy6p323a30x0vjkcj4jc5k2fcsyrqedzdwy6ea6sx2fmsamjypjagzyr8nuedux8gvxdapkqv54wdg8p3s70x5yd9uq2x6xq58zwyr97avqam8maw In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqswl4dztc4ld0ux5ajy5kj8pjs2u7pcclrugmhdyuyk29jl63ft6gsqvssrx'>nevent1q…ssrx</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>Which is still non-monetary use. Luke, Mechanic, et al have publicly stated multiple times Bitcoin should not be used for non-monetary transactions. They&#39;ve also stated on Spaces they will continue to squeeze until they find a working solution. So they are the judge, jury and executioner of how block space can be used? <br/><br/>The ultimate point is BIP-110 solves nothing. Now instead of having the ability to prune that data out of the larger op_return, &#34;bad actors&#34; will be forced to chunk it across multiple fields/UTXOs which will then be immutable. I lose optionality as a node runner. So if they truly believed the CSAM talking point, they now guarantee it will exist. <br/><br/>Finally, it also keeps the same core issues they point to with the larger op_return field: 1) greater fees; and 2) blockchain bloat. When you mention this, they state the fees would then be the filter which is exactly what non BIP-110 people have been saying about the current implementation. 2026-06-30T00:14:40Z https://nostr.now/nevent1qqs9kuaeyn52jf3mt7df7nw3sjzsfpw7r83g8tlhm2n6gzggfky6d9czyr8nuedux8gvxdapkqv54wdg8p3s70x5yd9uq2x6xq58zwyr97avqcvxrgw Hey <span itemprop="mentions" itemscope itemtype="https://schema.org/Person"><a itemprop="url" href="/nprofile1qy2hwumn8ghj7etyv4hzumn0wd68ytnvv9hxgqgdwaehxw309ahx7uewd3hkcqpqs05p3ha7en49dv8429tkk07nnfa9pcwczkf5x5qrdraqshxdje9sgew2ua" class="bg-lavender dark:prose:text-neutral-50 dark:text-neutral-50 dark:bg-garnet px-1"><span>Jeff Booth</span> (<span class="italic">nprofile…w2ua</span>)</a></span> Since you are now supporting BIP-110, has Ego Death Capital divested from Simple Proof?

Look, do I think Core mishandled the rollout of their changes last year? Yep, most of the devs have the situational awareness and emotional intelligence of a banana peel. They placed zero value on social consensus and it has led us to where we are. <br/><br/>That said, I fully support BIP-110ers in their right to fight for what they believe in and to push for its implementation... if that’s what broader consensus in the Bitcoin ecosystem ultimately wants. BUT, be careful what you wish for, especially for those that have advocated for this solution via the CSAM angle. 2026-06-26T20:10:33Z https://nostr.now/nevent1qqspczutahcj5cda5ty9ksuml68ms4qaa5sgm0j9nhtyf5rczdkr8yszyr8nuedux8gvxdapkqv54wdg8p3s70x5yd9uq2x6xq58zwyr97avqhcut8s In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqsztu6pxfk2xeexa5hyjcwpdj425hkrxf0xrnu9uk3c8m6sr8tnyrszhlc6m'>nevent1q…lc6m</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>Because the current iterations are not AIs.

A nobody in Bitcoin. I stack sats, run a node, run a meetup, and I&#39;m heading to the conference this year like thousands of others. That doesn&#39;t make me &#34;shitcoiner&#34; or &#34;tradfi grifter.&#34; It doesn&#39;t make me inferior. And it certainly doesn&#39;t justify the endless mental gymnastics and gatekeeping that&#39;s infecting our community.<br/><br/>Many of you have lost the plot. <br/><br/>Bitcoin was never meant to be a purity test or a social hierarchy where the loudest twatter accounts decide who&#39;s &#34;in&#34; and who&#39;s &#34;out.&#34; Satoshi gifted the world &#34;money for everyone&#34; regardless of geographic location, status, or identity. He promised us decentralization. He promised us permissionless access and censorship resistance. He promised us a strict adherence to a predictable monetary policy. He promised us that we could have direct, exclusive control over our wealth. <br/><br/>But you&#39;d think he promised some of you a superiority complex for simply buying the asset. The arrogant behavior, the dismissive attitudes, the need for control, the &#34;always right&#34; preaching... I have no doubt he&#39;d be embarassed in how a lot of you act. <br/><br/>The same cypherpunk energy that gave us Bitcoin is being replaced by clout-chasing and performative superiority. If your version of Bitcoin requires looking down on others who don&#39;t meet your arbitrary bar, that&#39;s a YOU problem. Bitcoin doesn&#39;t care about your beliefs and opinions, your follower count or Interwebs street cred, or how early you got in. It cares about sound money, individual freedom, and voluntary participation. Come on, come fucking all. <br/><br/>As for those of you knocking Las Vegas. You can dislike the Strip, but it is a purpose-built entertainment and convention ecosystem that caters to damn near everyone. For us that live here, we&#39;ve got zero state income or capital gains tax, world class dining and entertainment, endless activities, hour flights to most of the southwest for even more optionality, a relatively LCOL, and 300+ days of sunshine. I&#39;ve read your moody posts and have seen pix of a lot of you... trust me, many of you could use the sun.<br/><br/>Finally, the conference is what you make of it -- whether it is in Vegas, Prague, or whatever town it&#39;s in. It&#39;s about finding some signal in the noise. It&#39;s about finding some alpha that you can&#39;t find hiding behind your keyboard. It&#39;s about reconnecting and spending time with the friends you&#39;ve made along the way.<br/><br/>Maybe some of you never understood the plot. For those of you that do, I&#39;ll see you in Vegas at the happy hour I&#39;m hosting, at Hotstyle Takeover, at the Club Orange party, at NOSVegas... be sure to say Hi! 2026-04-06T13:31:02Z https://nostr.now/nevent1qqswr4ltu65587vfvx36vdphljw75s5r9xu0lvqc2jv3m6zaxqee02szyr8nuedux8gvxdapkqv54wdg8p3s70x5yd9uq2x6xq58zwyr97avq3fecnm Jason Salmon at Wiseguys.
