It was increased months earlier by the Bitcoin network; an in fact the consensus limit on OP_RETURNs was set to 1MB at least 10 years ago.<br/><br/>The Bitcoin Network made its own decentralized autonomous decision to accept large OP_RETURNs, and it made that decision before v30 existed<br/><br/>In fact, the number of large OP_RETURNs actually decrease slightly after v30 was released<br/><br/>You disagree with that decision. That&#39;s fine. But it&#39;s difficult for you to argue with the Bitcoin Network, precisely because it&#39;s decentralized and autonomous. Who are you going to argue with? You can&#39;t blame Core30, as the Network had already made the decision months earlier.<br/><br/>By the time v30 was released in October 2025, the default in Bitcoin Core was &#34;effective&#34;, it was having one harmful effect and no positive effect: It was stopping small miners and small pools from seeing the transactions that were going to be mined. Again, you might disagree with that, but you have to be realistic if you want to go to war against the Tolerant Minority; it&#39;s very difficult to stop us<br/><br/>I know this seems repetitive to you. But this is an important opportunity to learn. People like me, in the Tolerant Minority, step in to take action to save Bitcoin. We don&#39;t ask for permission from Core or from Knots.

Relay policy isn&#39;t even controlled by the economics nodes. Relay policy is controlled by the *relaxed* nodes and the *relaxed* miners<br/><br/>If you have a goal to keep relay policy far from consensus, i.e. to have lots of filters, then you need to be very realistic.

I hope you don&#39;t mind me replying, but I think you&#39;re misunderstanding what happened with BIP110<br/><br/>(I enjoy following you, as I feel that you are different from many bitcoiners here on Nostr, and it&#39;s useful to follow different perspectives)<br/><br/>The big miners didn&#39;t really *reject* BIP110, they simply ignored it. They just kept mining Bitcoin blocks as usual. Dathon Ohm lied when he said the big miners did a &#34;secret hard fork&#34;.<br/><br/>Some users configured their nodes to reject Bitcoin blocks, and therefore it&#39;s no surprise that they ended up on a different chaintip; sorry if this is uncomfortable to read, but it&#39;s true<br/><br/>BIP110 was harmful to Bitcoin&#39;s monetary purpose. It would have made it more difficult to run a node, by forcing data into the UTXO set; and that&#39;s the worst outcome for node decentralisation<br/><br/>The Knots and filtering movement is harmful to mining decentralisation, as it makes it difficult for small miners to see what&#39;s going to be mined. The &#34;Tolerant Minority&#34; fought back, to defend decentralisation, by helping small miners to see all the fee-paying transactions; they did this by relaxing their mempools to relay more transactions<br/><br/><br/>So, it&#39;s good that BIP110 was ignored by Bitcoin. And the BIP110 leaders told many lies about &#34;game theory&#34;, as well as generally being egotistical maniacs 2026-08-14T07:53:45Z https://njump.me/nevent1qqsvgex03plxteuqe42cf5ed784yaa6jtfqhn6jn83mafjjxf3k4xlszyqfwuq73z6z2zfwas7lg08pgryzpt03l8v0v566w6apm6a8lmzqwvev8m28 In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqsz0wq2s78mkyh2u6gma8kx2nctu04vplv96swrf7xhgexnctd9vlgpz4mhxue69uhhyetvv9ujuerpd46hxtnfduhsmfujty'>nevent1q…ujty</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>I think using your Bitcoin to open Lightning channels, and then swapping your Lightning balance to onchain (e.g. via Boltz) is easier to do - and at least as private - as what you suggest 2026-08-13T21:53:54Z https://njump.me/nevent1qqsvdchdx4rsvnqudavd2mg04png4s8ry3pqlwj2mshma9rxrxnnpqgzyqfwuq73z6z2zfwas7lg08pgryzpt03l8v0v566w6apm6a8lmzqwva8snlv In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqs0q7gedjjvx8wc8wrrxgp77fy9g6ckulzut8yqwgmyu6z7gak8kkgpzpmhxue69uhkummnw3ezumt0d5hswfzpwa'>nevent1q…zpwa</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>&#34;attack&#34;<br/><br/>The Bitcoin network did literally *nothing*.

Multiple things recently have reminded me of this issue, not just the ColdCard hack.<br/><br/>If you *genuinely* understand the tech, and the economics, and all that other stuff, you can come to the conclusion that Bitcoin will win. That you should put all your wealth in it, and you should help out with freedom tech if you can<br/><br/>But things aren&#39;t so easy for people who don&#39;t really *understand* it all. They have to go on faith a lot. I&#39;ve had just one long face-to-face conversation with a BIP-110 supporter. Very nice older man, but he knew essentially nothing about how Bitcoin worked. He had put all his life savings into Bitcoin, but he was very stressed and said he&#39;d have to sell if BIP-110 didn&#39;t activate.<br/><br/>My point there isn&#39;t to (yet again!) criticize a BIP-110 supporter. He kept using the word &#34;conviction&#34;, and that his &#34;conviction&#34; was being tested. It&#39;s like a religious person talking about &#34;faith&#34;<br/><br/>He was Bitcoin-only (on the face of it), but only because it was an article of faith for him and because he copied the opinions of people smarter than him.<br/><br/>If we try to bully people to take &#34;Bitcoin only&#34; as an article of faith, then it becomes a meaningless slogan. And it can become harmful because it means that people can&#39;t ask the hard questions that challenge Bitcoin. And if people are Bitcoin-only as an article of faith, and not because they&#39;ve actually learned about it, then I don&#39;t think that does anybody any good 2026-08-02T22:20:26Z https://njump.me/nevent1qqs9vm9c8gt29ex3r92fruuepkk7tc9vdunwvxx43zkwddpe6lh9gegzyqfwuq73z6z2zfwas7lg08pgryzpt03l8v0v566w6apm6a8lmzqwv0htj3f In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqsqcwt570vnxv66gpuh48frpu3c4jvva3ngwe9qcffm20v0mpp9swcppemhxue69uhkummn9ekx7mp0w853ya'>nevent1q…53ya</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>Good question<br/><br/>If the manufacturer truly doesn&#39;t support other cryptocurrencies in any of their devices, then the assumption is that they can focus on getting Bitcoin right and not have to manage a complex multi-currency codebase<br/><br/>But you&#39;re right that there is no advantage in having a bitcoin-only version alongside their shitcoin version<br/><br/>If anything, it makes it less secure, because of the complexity of now having to maintain two products 2026-08-01T08:44:48Z https://njump.me/nevent1qqspml0p6mfug0p3s2ddu6ksgjk2vysy32tr06jk86069pm2e9mfykczyqfwuq73z6z2zfwas7lg08pgryzpt03l8v0v566w6apm6a8lmzqwv770jp0 If the code is open, bad actors will read it and exploit it<br/><br/>If you want to motivate people to review and help you to improve the code, actively encourage them to use it and encourage them to depend on it in their products<br/><br/>Make it truly open source (MIT, GPL, BSD).<br/><br/>Be flattered, not angry, when people incorporate the code in their products.

The Bitcoin Network had already made its own autonomous decision, months before Core30 was released, to allow this. We didn&#39;t wait for permission from Core or Knots to do this. We didn&#39;t wait for &#34;technical consensus&#34;<br/><br/>In that context, the default policy in Core had only one effect: harming small miners, by making it difficult for them to earn fees<br/><br/>The heroes and winners of this are the Tolerant Minority.

However, if Ark is *too* efficient in this case, then a typical block might have only one transaction!<br/><br/>(By the way, that&#39;s partly why I&#39;m currently against CTV; I want Ark, but I don&#39;t want it to be *too* scalable; I want many medium-sized Arks, not one mega-Ark)<br/><br/>On balance, I think it&#39;ll all be fine and there won&#39;t be a problem with the security budget. But there could be a problem, and that problem could eventually be fatal. So I like to think about it<br/><br/>The article discusses Runes, but I think it dismisses them too quickly. The Lightning network could be extended to fully support Runes (no soft fork required), and it&#39;s possible (but admittedly, very unlikely) that one of the Runes becomes very valuable. As many Runes &#39;currencies&#39; have tail emissions, it&#39;s possible that they could provide the right incentives to miners<br/><br/>Anyway, there&#39;s always &#39;demurrage&#39;, a soft fork to apply a tax on old UTXOs, which would motivate people to move their coins more often and create. The rule could be that, when spending a UTXO older than X years, at least Y% of the outputs must be anyone-can-spend outputs that are locked to a few years in the future. Such outputs are equivalent to the block subsidy in practice 2026-07-16T12:29:07Z https://njump.me/nevent1qqsz0uxjnsenw45lnde7pgqkc9x0r0aqf8axm349rttxgge9gavxvfczyqfwuq73z6z2zfwas7lg08pgryzpt03l8v0v566w6apm6a8lmzqwv0uug0a I&#39;d be inclined to support this, if it was applied to everybody regardless of age<br/><br/>What do you think?<br/><br/> <img src="https://blossom.primal.net/3a1cc8c99f39de34c9285cfdc7ec8bb6c4bd3d91774650991a266eb2c84e519a.jpg"> 2026-07-16T02:04:11Z https://njump.me/nevent1qqsgefxcz347aayup9qc83mtuynh8kv7cpanajlc5qkyc9499zukj9qzyqfwuq73z6z2zfwas7lg08pgryzpt03l8v0v566w6apm6a8lmzqwv8axcs7 In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqsr2zl5fepct4ykucy6pgunchddch5k9klpphmh24ap0h4z596hy5cppemhxue69uhkummn9ekx7mp0ugxumv'>nevent1q…xumv</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>I don&#39;t think I&#39;ve ever used GLM.
