“Rug the spammers.” - Nick Szabo View quoted note →

Core: If you don't like the change run knots Core when plebs run knots: REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE! Core: There's nothing we can do about it without a consensus change. Core when plebs propose a consensus change: REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!

One of my many shortcomings is that I’m often impatient and easily agitated - especially when it comes to things I care deeply and hold strong opinions about. I’ve gotten better at keeping that in check with age, but there’s still plenty of room for improvement. I respect guys like @Matthew Kratter who stay calm and balanced in their rebuttals. Without that kind of composure, we wouldn’t have thoughtful exchanges like this one. Truly humbling. View quoted note → View quoted note →

Compromised Core devs rejected the fix for inscriptions pretending it has been "controversial PR". Compromised Core dev pushed OP_RETURN as if it was not controversial.

Compromised Coree devs and bad actors like Jameson Slopp and others told you that "filters do not work" They lied you. View quoted note →

I want to zap your notes but I can't!

The chain doesn’t decide right or wrong. It just remembers. Fear fades when we understand that.

Unless we change the code to make it do something else. Bitcoin is money. The chain is a ledger about who paid whom. Leave the code alone.

@Mike Beatty watch please

Yes I did. I believe Murch is a good guy. I agreed with most of his points technically. I don’t agree his view on the big picture here.

Yeah it just seems like a total mess now the whole thing is getting silly. I agree 1000000% that bitcoin should be money. But the only solution to this so far (the soft fork) seems terrible and almost on the way to it becoming “unpermissionless”. Which I would argue it actually worse. If someone could actually put together proper code for this and if it could actually solve the spam problem then I’d be down for a soft fork. This seems rushed and not thought out though (from what I can tell from an untechy mind) I worry the soft fork happens doesn’t work and Bitcoin loses 10% plus people who believe this is the only solution (just like Bitcoin cash crew)

I’m not sure what you’re implying here tbh - who’s being defeatist and what is the solution?

I mean all of that is addressed by Murch in the chat and has been addressed many times. Does it not make sense what he says? Or is it that people still just don’t believe him/ all of the many people explaining it? or what is it exactly? I’m genuinely confused at this point by how angry everyone is. Tbh it’s making me think this- the real threat is something else (like ETFs buying it all up) so they’ve managed to make bitcoiners create their own FUD to distract them turn on each other and allow them to gobble up even more.

If you get it, you get it. Nice a nice day man !

Fair enough- I was genuinely asking though as in would it be helpful if I make a video answering those questions from a non techy point of view. Or do people know the answers and just choose not to hear them?
