Someday I’d love to meet a bip-110 supporter in real life to discuss the issue…I see the core 30 position as obviously the “correct” one (modulo implementation/communication nits)… It is too easy for people to be tribal and caveman-brained when interacting with text only…but genuine debate in front of a live person is so much easier to remain thoughtful and engaged. I would love to hear a legit argument against core 30 relay changes (that remain valid in the long run; obviously there was no rush to rip off the 🩹, but it was thought preferable to making small changes periodically, which is debatable). But I only want to hear it from someone who would be willing to be proven wrong…because everyone entering any debate at any time should be willing to be proven wrong!

So, you know how relay rules prevent you from submitting a #bitcoin transaction that is not yet valid? I’m talking about time locked transactions… Well, maybe we should drop that relay filter as well…otherwise miners might accept (out of band) txs for long term storage (for a fee). This would favor mining companies more likely to still be around at the time the transaction becomes valid…a case of bigger miners get bigger while little guys lose out. I don’t see anyone talking about this yet…but the parallels to op return are pretty obvious. @Jameson Lopp
