Ocean: Your hash, your block. Knots: Your node, your relay policy. Every other pool: Your hash, my block Bitcoin Core: Your node, my relay policy This is an attack on bitcoin.

Spam apologists trying to reintroduce the Bitcoin censorship FUD painted with jargon to confuse people. Sigh Spam filters cannot be abused for censorship. It only takes 1 block to bypass attempts to censor. But it takes 1 block to make spam filters effective. Opposites.

Calling users gullible is a patronizing, elitist attitude. Users are switching not because they're being deceived by evil people, they're switching because they want to tell you that they don't like this change that you're rushing through. You have to be blind to not see that.

I'm at a loss at this point. The sheer volume of continuous gaslighting by the pro-spam camps this past week is admittedly taking its toll. 😢

Damn. Did that 50x ratio of her gaslighting send her flying all the way to Bluesky or something? 😂 Crazy.

🤦🏻‍♂️

I'm glad I'm not the only one debunking weird "my car did this crazy thing all on its own" claims. Driver error. Every. Single. Time.

The current largest systemic problem in Bitcoin is mining centralization. It’s the fact that we have millions of *hashers* and barely a handful of *miners* on the network. There has been endless claims about solutions, but no project has done more, practically and explicitly,

Luxor changed the block template they send me from "Powered by Luxor Tech" to "Mined by AntPool" mid-way through height 899921 and their pool continues to accept my shares as valid while I hash this Antpool template. More confirmation that Luxor and AntPool have a relationship.

Bitcoin doesn't have a "security budget." Bitcoin has miners, who are free to come and go as they wish. How miners make money isn't relevant to developers, it's relevant to mining entrepreneurs. Keep developers as far away from the mining incentive as possible.

Bitcoin Core Project For years, Bitcoin Core’s guiding light has been node sovereignty: “Run your own node.” “Verify, don’t trust.” “Consensus starts at the edges.” But this new relay policy framing signals something different: Now, it’s about miner economics and network hygiene over relay

Marco Mechanic #FixTheFilters #300kb Bitcoin Core Project Bitcoin is already not okay. And we can't just shrug and say "time will tell". We, as humanity, NEED Bitcoin to succeed. We cannot afford to mess this up. And yet we're on the verge of doing just that.

Bitcoin Core Project NACK The goals of transaction relay listed are basically all wrong. Predicting what will be mined is a centralizing goal. Expecting spam to be mined is defeatism. Helping spam propagate is harmful. This OPED contradicts itself, presenting out of band relay as both negative and

gloria Same sophistry as always. "This idea has been controversial for various reasons" No, it became controversial in 2023. Prior to that it was standard. Stop trying to rewrite history.

gloria Gloria, I fixed it for you.

Behold, the ritual suicide of Bitcoin Core

52 days. That's all it took for a non-Bitcoin project to co-opt Bitcoin Core's development and direction. If that doesn't terrify you, it should. If such an insignificant shitcoin entity can shift Bitcoin Core's development so easily with so little influence, despite massive
