Support Bitcoin Improvement Proposal 444 (https://bip444.github.io). "(...) most people don't want the headache that comes with that [arbitrary file storage system] becuase it has nothing to do with money." - Bitcoin Mechanic at Plan B Forum 2025, "https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O2R_LiXhRYI".

- Tell me how Bitcoin is not sound money without bip444? Please explain your position. - Because of the trust that's required to make it work. Miners must be trusted not to obstruct circulation of money with bulky and malicious garbage that makes it: - less portable, - riskier, - costlier, - less valuable. BIP-444 eliminates that weakness and aligns incentives. https://x.com/GregTonoski/status/1992178220049809545

Blockstream's co-founder Reid Hoffman will be investigated over his relationship with paedophile financier J. Epstein as demanded by POTUS. Did Adam Back @adam3us (co-founder too and CEO) have any contact with J. Epstein, perhaps?

Bitcoin not cRyPtO, sats not JPEGs, Bitcoin Knots not Core™. https://github.com/bitcoinknots/bitcoin/releases

The leading, most important, Bitcoin projects, e.g. Bitcoin Knots, are developed independently and haven't received any funds from the organisations.

Every new use case would bloat UTXO set. https://imgflip.com/i/a7anzg

Every "new use case" bloats UTXO set. OP_RETURN opens up possibility for virtually unlimited, arbitrary nEw UsE cAsEs on Bitcoin. Restrict the consensus rules so that so-called "OP_RETURN" arbitrary data is disallowed in order to curb bloating of the UTXO set. Besides, use "datacarrier=0" option in Bitcoin Knots. It blocks the spam from propagation in P2P network mempools and so denies it anonymity.

Bitcoin P2P network is the best privacy tool for monetary transactions. It is damaged by spamming attacks which are facilitated by Bitcoin™ Core and co. Run Bitcoin Knots instead, set "datacarrier=0".

Why are there so many messaging/chat apps and people migrate to one after another? E.g. Messanger, Signal, WeChat, WhatsApp, Skype, Telegram, ICQ, Slack, Teams, iMessege and so on. (They are not interoperable, migration is far from seamless, XMPP is not in widespread use if any).
