You know that Adam Back tried to get Vitalik to build Ethereum on Bitcoin right?
Vitalik’s reason for not building eth on Bitcoin was the possibility of OP_RETURN removal or a cap/limit.
The idea of OP_RETURN applying a limit in the future was enough to disincentivize bad actors like Vitalik.
Let me say that again.
OP_RETURN stopped Vitalik from building Eth on Bitcoin.
Bitcoin Core is aligned with Tap Root Wizards, Ethereum Service Providers, Shitcoiners, and Bad Actors.
Core proponents should take a look around the room.
