Out of over 1,500,000 OP_RETURN outputs created since block height 930,600 (Core v30 release) only 0.001% have been larger than 83 bytes.
So much for "blowing out the OP_RETURN limit" killing Bitcoin, eh @Matthew Kratter?

"How can Trump abduct a sitting president? Doesn't this violate international law?"
Oh sweet summer child, "international law" is a misnomer that should just be called "geopolitical customs."

With BTC's exchange rate ending 2025 down 6%, the 4 year cycle of 3 up years followed by 1 down year is officially broken.
