This hits the nail in the head.
It's NOT about whether spam can be outpriced or not. The problem is that spam is unnecessary burden for nodes, sitting there permanently. Since 2023: - 4GB nodes can no longer sync. - 8Gb nodes need external help to sync faster than a week. It takes a 16GB RAM, 2TB SSD and

Your homework problem: figure out how this can be used to DoS attack Bitcoin Knots nodes. https://t.co/iJg0GwLNrj

New take, folks. Why bother about spam when you can buy a huge bitcoin node for 500 USD?
@CryptoCryingBo1 @GrassFedBitcoin @Shrumseal I pimped this guy https://t.co/l3xH5oKJXI with 32GB RAM and bought 2xTB Fangxian SSDs https://t.co/eSXRjhWllA. Added a DisplayPort dummy dongle.

@ocean_lawyer @kyletorpey @NickSzabo4 @adamamcbride @LukeDashjr @tmornini @gofreesamourai @adam3us "Most "lawyers" in the bitcoin spoace are paper warriors who specialize in SEC and securities nonsense" agreed I practice patent law and as a result know a lot more about the tech, and from prior IP disputes can affirm that any consensus node is going to be in trouble soon if

Whether you try to discourage something, or do nothing, or try to encourage it -- or seem to do these things -- each of these actions or non-actions sends a signal, often a much more powerful signal than the actual security of your effort warrants. Think about locks on your
@aeonBTC @DoctorBuzz1 @NickSzabo4 Explain why, despite CSAM having already been on chain in BSV, when they changed op_return in 2019, it triggered a crisis. Can you explain this? You are thinking in technical terms; this is not a technical debate.

Unpopular opinion: Crypto died in 2021 and we have been trading the corpse ever since. There are no more pigs left to slaughter since everyone became aware that crypto as a whole is a scam. The belief system that made this industry work has completely collapsed. At least in

One of the biggest problems in Bitcoin is that there is nothing to do. Consequently bitcoiners have to be aware of the danger posed by economically illiterate and self-important C++ coders & cryptographers pushing Keynesian/shitcoiner snake oil on their freedom sound money.
One of the biggest problems in bitcoin is that there is nothing to do. You buy bitcoin every with every paycheck, withdraw to cold storage and that's it. When you tell someone who's only interaction with bitcoin for the last 4 years is pressing the withdraw button on the exchange

And Bitcoin Core really thinks it’s still a good idea to move forward with v.30 that will open up Bitcoin’s attack surface to all kinds of abuse? To all Bitcoiners who can still use their brains, It’s time to take a stand and call bullshit on the v.30 launch. Run Knots.
