Given the option to run code that
1/ limits arbitrary data, or
2/ allows arbitrary data
Why would any average pleb choose #2?
To protect bitcoin AND avoid a chain split, run BIP110. Worse case it expires in a year.

2026-06-20 02:27:21 UTC

@nprofile…awad Great discussion with @nprofile…y4eq
Just ordered your book.
I run knots + BIP110. The best way to avoid a chain split of to simply signal for 110. There's no reason not to.
I wish you guys had discussed the temporary nature of 110 and that method of making changes to bitcoin. If that method had been used with taproot, I doubt we would still have it.

Indeed. Both Daniel and Joseph rose to high offices while submitting to ungodly leaders. However, Daniel ended up in the lion's den for disobeying a law that violated his conscience.
Here's a book that is poorly written (IMHO), but the underlying message is solid (again, IMHO).

Now that you say it, and looking back on it, I did see signs. In the early 2000's, we were kicked out of a pediatrician's office for refusing certain vaccines for our newborn. At the time, I saw that as a narrow problem rather than a systemic rot.

I've been adjacent to the medical field for 30 years as a biomedical scientist; this is a new phenomenon. Not sure how long the transformation was brewing, but the switch happened quickly in 2020 with covid. Prior to that, the doctor (and patient) made all decisions with the attitude that "the buck stops here" with the doctor assuming full responsibility. Their was true autonomy, and doctors often consulted with each other for wisdom.
Then came covid and the sudden "follow the protocol" mindset. The entire medical community flipped. It was amazing and bewildering to behold. I watched critical thinking collapse to group think in higher education over 25 years; it took only 15 days in March 2020 for the medical field.
Again, it was amazing and bewildering and terrifying to watch. Today, I teach future doctors and nurses, but I've lost all faith in the profession. Both higher ed and the medical professions have fallen before my eyes, and I feel almost lost.

1/ GZ takes the BIP 110 position that spam exists, it's bad, and filtering it out is not censorship.
2/ GZ spoke out against core v30 changing op_return, before its release, agreeing with the BIP 110 camp that it was unnecessary and controversial.
3/ GZ is put off by the CSAM argument because CSAM is "not well defined" and claims showing an image of a crime is not a crime. While this is certainly true in the case of Hiroshima, CSAM is not just a physical crime, it is also a digital crime. The acts of sharing and viewing such images are themselves criminal acts. Disturbingly, GZ claims CSAM as a moral issue is "up for debate."
4/ GZ claims BIP 110 would reduce CSAM propagation from 200/hour to 100/hour. This is false and ludicrous. Core expanding op_return to 100k bytes makes possible contiguous CSAM images; reducing op_return to previous levels (80 bytes) eliminates that possibly completely, from 100% possible to 0% possible.
5/ GZ claims there are "many reasons" why it is "nonsense" that you can put contiguous CSAM into 100kb op_return, but fails to provide even one piece of evidence (or logic) to back that self-evidently ridiculous claim.
6/ GZ spends the next several minutes expressing dismay at being attacked despite being a vocal participant in a heated debate. These final statements have nothing to do with the argument.
My conclusion is that CZ is mostly aligned with the BIP 110 camp, but he illogically and mysteriously doesn't seem to view contiguous images in a 100kb op_return as possible and therefore not a threat vector. He also ignores that reducing op_return to pre-v30 levels will reduce non-illegal spam by 100x or more, not just 2x.

The form of government is irrelevant if people are good. The problem is that people aren't good (we are sinners).
