You know that Adam Back tried to get Vitalik to build Ethereum on Bitcoin right?
Vitalik’s reason for not building eth on Bitcoin was the possibility of OP_RETURN removal or a cap/limit.
The idea of OP_RETURN applying a limit in the future was enough to disincentivize bad actors like Vitalik.
Let me say that again.
OP_RETURN stopped Vitalik from building Eth on Bitcoin.
Bitcoin Core is aligned with Tap Root Wizards, Ethereum Service Providers, Shitcoiners, and Bad Actors.
Core proponents should take a look around the room.

Adam Back doesn't understand Bitcoin. Insane but true.
So he didn't build on bitcoin because of op_return? Didn't he insist on turing completeness?
Also it should be stated that we've already been through this nonsense when that bitcoin Jesus whatever the fuck his name was made BSV. Basically the same shit.
Had to look it up. Roger Ver. What a punchable dude... Sheeit. B cash forked off, then BSV forked off that. Minor point IMO, but still had to correct my note here.
I was there for that one. And then it went to Craig Wright.
One thing I've noticed during this particular argument. The core side is using one of the same arguments that was used by the BSV BCH side, which is: you're too stupid to understand why this is the right thing.
That argument is always a red flag for me.
Always. Just bullying in general - I've never seen an instance where the bully wasn't wrong. Thanks for chiming in - its good to hear OG opinions.
I think rather he's just philosophically captured, like most Brits are. Not captured directly by the state, that's Peter Tard.
Nobody fully understands all of the particulars. But some pretend to. The people who understand the best are the ones who understand that they don't understand.
you're retarded
I could say the same of the economics. But they are both basically the same thing. You're dealing with hidden information of individual physical actors as well as rational actors, in a complex chaotic system in empirical reality with many influencing variables that are completely incalculable. Welcome to economics.
You don't start to magically understand everything you need to know about how to dictate actions just by being a physicist.
What is this, primacy of the lead developer's consciousness? Answer this one question: is the exchange rate of a loaf of bread to dollars at Store A objective?
