thanks for sharing your view on this
@Jameson Lopp RETIRE, MOTHERFUCKER!
Critical.
As usual - all signal and no noise from Matthew.
Link to Bitcoin Mechanic’s video:
I’m starting to understand why Michael Saylor never wanted to donate to Core devs.
Thank you for these updates, Matthew 🫂. I just installed Knots last night after watching your video.
Do stupid shit, win stupid prizes. Great job, Bitcoin Core.

Thanks Matthew.
I zapped you 100zaps; lmk if you got it
Today I switched to Bitcoin Knots. Works perfectly. Absolute easy switch.
1. Bakcup your wallets
2. Stop Core
3. Start Bitcoin Knots - works flawlessly
Bitcoin Core developers turn malicius against the whole #Bitcoin community.
The big qustion is why? Why are they acting maliciusly? What is the root cause? Have they been corrupted from companies, banks, governments?
Can you explain (to a mere mortal) the perceived need to increase the data size of OP_Return when for years people have been uploading jpegs using inscriptions? Couldn’t users who want to add data simply use the same inscription block space and leave OP_Return as is? (I’m not technical so this is a genuine, not rhetorical, question.)
Thanks for covering this topic Matthew. Really appreciate your work in the space
It is very nice to find you on NOSTR. I'm always watching you videos. Thanks for sharing your ideas with us!
You know the truth by their acts.
The good thing is that software is open source, there are many well educated and knowledgable Bitcoinrs and things are openly discussed (or at least up until recently on Bitcoin Core which has changed for bad).
We have mediums like Nostr to get our information and discuss changes, ideas and topics.
There are people who can be trusted and you recognize them by their acts and their stance and attitute toward Bitcoin.
Also if people / node runners do not agree with any new change they can continue running older versions and keep the network safe.
Yikes, you guys. Thanks, @npub1s33s...252p.
My upgrade was very easy. I use the Linux binaries. Literally just extracted the Bitconi Knots tar.gz and run the binary.
Some day.
Not today.
Thanks @npub1s33s...252p for the good content, as usual. This whole story is not good for the credibility of the community.
I am considering switching to Knots because of all this. Does anyone know if when I have the chain synced with Knots if I can just keep using my Lightning node but through Knots? Or do I have to reinstall my Lightning node with Alby Hub and create channels again? #asknostr
Thank you! @npub1s33s...252p Remember to copy and paste your youtube post description wirh you Nostr post too. Thanks!
running knots
K. But if you remove my ability to limit op_return I stop running core and switch to knots.
Absolutely awful that you are encouraging your viewers to stop donating to OpenSats and HRF if they fund certain developers that you disagree with. Both organizations are great and here you are trying to continue cancel culture over an issue that is more noise than anything really meaningful. As Odell says it i's the way the discussion has unfolded that's more disturbing than the acutal issue being discussed.
I switched and didn't have any issues with lightning.
Hey, new friend! 🤙🏻
Ok, thanks for your reply, I'll take a look at it all and make my decision soon. Strange times again
Syncing via Knots currently. Let's learn
Agree
Well fuck you and them too

There is no malice involved.
I hope so.
Switched to knots. Thanx for a great podcast!!!
Thanks for posting your videos on Nostr
This is inflaming clickbait. What is most absurd to me, is that influencers love to paint us as this closed, shadowy group, when pretty much the opposite is true. Many of us are easy to interact with, constantly share what is going, spend hundreds, if not thousands of hours on pretty much every forum out there diligently answering questions, and try their best to do so next to extremely demanding engineering work. You can literally dm, or email most us, and are likely to receive an answer from at least someone. We are not some unapproachable corp where you get canned responses through their PR dept. There is one single place we moderate non-technical disiscussion, which is literally our workbench. We'd get even less done if we wouldn't. Calling that "attacking Bitcoin" is just asinine.
Are you sure though?
He's one guy, who happened to open the currently controversial PR. I, and many other developers, don't share this opinion.
I am pleased to hear that you and others don't share this opinion. For me that is clear sign of attack against Bitcoin and all our values. And that worries me a lot.
I mean Peters view is clear sign of attack against Bitcoin.
It worked like a charm. No problem with Lightning indeed. Thanks!
