Last Notes npub1lh273a4wpkup00stw8dzqjvvrqrfdrv2v3v4t8pynuezlfe5vjnsnaa9nk Luke Dashjr Not interested in your scams. npub1lh273a4wpkup00stw8dzqjvvrqrfdrv2v3v4t8pynuezlfe5vjnsnaa9nk Luke Dashjr The other restrictions prevent the same issue. OP_RETURN is not the only contiguous region that can be abused. There is no "different issue" addressed by RDTS. There's also no evidence an OP_RETURN-only variant would get more support, and someone even proposed that a while back and effectively proved it doesn't. This has only just become an attack vector 4 months ago with the release of Core30. And reversing that harm is the only thing RDTS accomplishes. npub1lh273a4wpkup00stw8dzqjvvrqrfdrv2v3v4t8pynuezlfe5vjnsnaa9nk Luke Dashjr 1) The RDTS limit is 256 _bytes_, not kilobytes. 2) Those are unjust laws, and people should fight them. 3) That being said, 3D files still don't belong on Bitcoin, and fear of unjust prosecution would likely still be fatal to Bitcoin in this way. npub1lh273a4wpkup00stw8dzqjvvrqrfdrv2v3v4t8pynuezlfe5vjnsnaa9nk Luke Dashjr It takes time to think through, implement, and review a more complicated long term change. In that time, anyone can just destroy Bitcoin irreversibly. RDTS protects Bitcoin while we do that longer term R&D npub1lh273a4wpkup00stw8dzqjvvrqrfdrv2v3v4t8pynuezlfe5vjnsnaa9nk Luke Dashjr No, it acknowledges BitVM issues are a tradeoff and that is part of why it expires in a year. BitVM is unlikely to be ready for production within a year anyway. npub1lh273a4wpkup00stw8dzqjvvrqrfdrv2v3v4t8pynuezlfe5vjnsnaa9nk Luke Dashjr Miners do not control the network. npub1lh273a4wpkup00stw8dzqjvvrqrfdrv2v3v4t8pynuezlfe5vjnsnaa9nk Luke Dashjr 60% is what recent data shows. Feel free to do your own analysis. npub1lh273a4wpkup00stw8dzqjvvrqrfdrv2v3v4t8pynuezlfe5vjnsnaa9nk Luke Dashjr There's ways to do it, but the spammers _want_ to force you to download and distribute it, so they intentionally use the harmful ways. npub1lh273a4wpkup00stw8dzqjvvrqrfdrv2v3v4t8pynuezlfe5vjnsnaa9nk Luke Dashjr If you oppose preventing CSAM, you objectively do support CSAM. It's only hostile to pedophiles and scammers. npub1lh273a4wpkup00stw8dzqjvvrqrfdrv2v3v4t8pynuezlfe5vjnsnaa9nk Luke Dashjr It doesn't, this is just the latest Epstein narrative being parroted over and over to try to brainwash people. npub1lh273a4wpkup00stw8dzqjvvrqrfdrv2v3v4t8pynuezlfe5vjnsnaa9nk Luke Dashjr Your "argument" is no basis to force others to store and distribute anything, much less CSAM. npub1lh273a4wpkup00stw8dzqjvvrqrfdrv2v3v4t8pynuezlfe5vjnsnaa9nk Luke Dashjr So no actual bug, just FUD npub1lh273a4wpkup00stw8dzqjvvrqrfdrv2v3v4t8pynuezlfe5vjnsnaa9nk Luke Dashjr Until it expires obviously npub1lh273a4wpkup00stw8dzqjvvrqrfdrv2v3v4t8pynuezlfe5vjnsnaa9nk Luke Dashjr Liar npub1lh273a4wpkup00stw8dzqjvvrqrfdrv2v3v4t8pynuezlfe5vjnsnaa9nk Luke Dashjr There is only one chain, soon with RDTS rules enforced for 1 year. npub1lh273a4wpkup00stw8dzqjvvrqrfdrv2v3v4t8pynuezlfe5vjnsnaa9nk Luke Dashjr What "fix"? RDTS isn't broken... npub1lh273a4wpkup00stw8dzqjvvrqrfdrv2v3v4t8pynuezlfe5vjnsnaa9nk Luke Dashjr You don't know what you're talking about npub1lh273a4wpkup00stw8dzqjvvrqrfdrv2v3v4t8pynuezlfe5vjnsnaa9nk Luke Dashjr Liar npub1lh273a4wpkup00stw8dzqjvvrqrfdrv2v3v4t8pynuezlfe5vjnsnaa9nk Luke Dashjr Consensus is 100%, not a majority. And ~60% support RDTS. npub1lh273a4wpkup00stw8dzqjvvrqrfdrv2v3v4t8pynuezlfe5vjnsnaa9nk Luke Dashjr Softforks almost never have consensus. RDTS has more than sufficient support, though. npub1lh273a4wpkup00stw8dzqjvvrqrfdrv2v3v4t8pynuezlfe5vjnsnaa9nk Luke Dashjr BIP444 aka BIP110 Reverses the data storage / CSAM vulnerability added by Core30's malicious changes. npub1lh273a4wpkup00stw8dzqjvvrqrfdrv2v3v4t8pynuezlfe5vjnsnaa9nk Luke Dashjr There is NO difference at all between CSAM on a hard drive and CSAM via Core30's data storage mechanism. And you're ignoring the whole distribution part. And yes, they are accessible by non-techies. The goal is not to stop motivated individuals from accessing the images. The goal is to not be in possession or distributing them myself just by running a node. And we don't have to restrict specific data - we just ban *all* data storage. By the time there are arrests, it is way too late. Once CSAM is on the chain, it can never be removed. npub1lh273a4wpkup00stw8dzqjvvrqrfdrv2v3v4t8pynuezlfe5vjnsnaa9nk Luke Dashjr Wrong, RDTS brings us back to where we were before Core30. npub1lh273a4wpkup00stw8dzqjvvrqrfdrv2v3v4t8pynuezlfe5vjnsnaa9nk Luke Dashjr They would be anti-RDTS npub1lh273a4wpkup00stw8dzqjvvrqrfdrv2v3v4t8pynuezlfe5vjnsnaa9nk Luke Dashjr One-word replies are necessary to counter Brandolini's law. npub1lh273a4wpkup00stw8dzqjvvrqrfdrv2v3v4t8pynuezlfe5vjnsnaa9nk Luke Dashjr It has nothing to do with me, troll npub1lh273a4wpkup00stw8dzqjvvrqrfdrv2v3v4t8pynuezlfe5vjnsnaa9nk Luke Dashjr No, it makes CSAM completely impossible. Decentralization is not sacrificed at all either. RDTS only helps improve decentralisation. npub1lh273a4wpkup00stw8dzqjvvrqrfdrv2v3v4t8pynuezlfe5vjnsnaa9nk Luke Dashjr There's also a risk bad actors will retaliate and/or counter-fork, but those risks only go down with more RDTS adoption. npub1lh273a4wpkup00stw8dzqjvvrqrfdrv2v3v4t8pynuezlfe5vjnsnaa9nk Luke Dashjr 2) No real impact/cost. Miners and nodes need to upgrade. There's some strictly theoretical tradeoffs documented in the BIP itself: https://github.com/dathonohm/bips/blob/reduced-data/bip-0110.mediawiki npub1lh273a4wpkup00stw8dzqjvvrqrfdrv2v3v4t8pynuezlfe5vjnsnaa9nk Luke Dashjr 1) Bitcoin's security depends on a supermajority of the economy using their own full node. CSAM means every full node will be actively engaging in child porn distribution. Most people will never be willing to do that. Without people using their own nodes, Bitcoin becomes just a worse version of fiat (including, but not limited to, inflation, seizures, etc). Spam makes it harder to run a full node, so is a similar threat over a longer period of time. npub1lh273a4wpkup00stw8dzqjvvrqrfdrv2v3v4t8pynuezlfe5vjnsnaa9nk Luke Dashjr You're the liar. npub1lh273a4wpkup00stw8dzqjvvrqrfdrv2v3v4t8pynuezlfe5vjnsnaa9nk Luke Dashjr Dorsey invested in OCEAN OCEAN pays employees reasonable (not massive) salaries - I would make more working elsewhere. None of this is relevant to the context of RDTS at all (Opposites are hard??) npub1lh273a4wpkup00stw8dzqjvvrqrfdrv2v3v4t8pynuezlfe5vjnsnaa9nk Luke Dashjr It's okay to be ignorant about RDTS and withhold judgement until you understand it better. It's not okay to be _opposed_ to RDTS, since it just addresses an existential threat to Bitcoin. RDTS is hostile only to CSAM and spammers. If you're neither, it's not a hostile softfork, and you should support it. npub1lh273a4wpkup00stw8dzqjvvrqrfdrv2v3v4t8pynuezlfe5vjnsnaa9nk Luke Dashjr Without the lies you're parroting. npub1lh273a4wpkup00stw8dzqjvvrqrfdrv2v3v4t8pynuezlfe5vjnsnaa9nk Luke Dashjr Imagine thinking fake news media is a defense. npub1lh273a4wpkup00stw8dzqjvvrqrfdrv2v3v4t8pynuezlfe5vjnsnaa9nk Luke Dashjr Yes it is. npub1lh273a4wpkup00stw8dzqjvvrqrfdrv2v3v4t8pynuezlfe5vjnsnaa9nk Luke Dashjr More lies. npub1lh273a4wpkup00stw8dzqjvvrqrfdrv2v3v4t8pynuezlfe5vjnsnaa9nk Luke Dashjr All comparable softfork attempts have succeeded, and so will RDTS. Odell's lies are lies tho. npub1lh273a4wpkup00stw8dzqjvvrqrfdrv2v3v4t8pynuezlfe5vjnsnaa9nk Luke Dashjr It's not part of BIP110, but I don't care. Bitcoin is dead if it mandates CSAM distribution. If such a block is created, I am personally rejecting it and encouraging everyone else to do the same regardless. npub1lh273a4wpkup00stw8dzqjvvrqrfdrv2v3v4t8pynuezlfe5vjnsnaa9nk Luke Dashjr That doesn't mean you should join the scammers, Odell. npub1lh273a4wpkup00stw8dzqjvvrqrfdrv2v3v4t8pynuezlfe5vjnsnaa9nk Luke Dashjr The only things RDTS is hostile toward are CSAM and spammers. If you're hostile to RDTS, you're friendly to those. npub1lh273a4wpkup00stw8dzqjvvrqrfdrv2v3v4t8pynuezlfe5vjnsnaa9nk Luke Dashjr Not my fault there's so many liars. npub1lh273a4wpkup00stw8dzqjvvrqrfdrv2v3v4t8pynuezlfe5vjnsnaa9nk Luke Dashjr Maybe, but he definitely does know it isn't about anyone's ego. npub1lh273a4wpkup00stw8dzqjvvrqrfdrv2v3v4t8pynuezlfe5vjnsnaa9nk Luke Dashjr Liar npub1lh273a4wpkup00stw8dzqjvvrqrfdrv2v3v4t8pynuezlfe5vjnsnaa9nk Luke Dashjr Liar npub1lh273a4wpkup00stw8dzqjvvrqrfdrv2v3v4t8pynuezlfe5vjnsnaa9nk Luke Dashjr That's a lie and you know it. npub1lh273a4wpkup00stw8dzqjvvrqrfdrv2v3v4t8pynuezlfe5vjnsnaa9nk Luke Dashjr You're the complaining liar npub1lh273a4wpkup00stw8dzqjvvrqrfdrv2v3v4t8pynuezlfe5vjnsnaa9nk Luke Dashjr For what it is, this is a very SLOW activation with a HIGH hashrate requirement (and hashrate is NOT consensus) npub1lh273a4wpkup00stw8dzqjvvrqrfdrv2v3v4t8pynuezlfe5vjnsnaa9nk Luke Dashjr 55% is high for such a critical fix actually Core has done 0% for less critical fixes npub1lh273a4wpkup00stw8dzqjvvrqrfdrv2v3v4t8pynuezlfe5vjnsnaa9nk Luke Dashjr It's not about funding sources. Pay attention. npub1lh273a4wpkup00stw8dzqjvvrqrfdrv2v3v4t8pynuezlfe5vjnsnaa9nk Luke Dashjr Reposting Jack Mallers: "Bitcoin is a neutral, open-source public utility. Like fire, water, or the internet. It is not a person. It is not an institution. It has no secrets. Corrupt people do not get to rob humanity of our chance to fix the mess we inherited. Bitcoin is the solution, not the problem." https://x.com/jackmallers/status/2018760677511319763?s=20 npub1lh273a4wpkup00stw8dzqjvvrqrfdrv2v3v4t8pynuezlfe5vjnsnaa9nk Luke Dashjr CISA is overrated. It doesn't actually do what people think. npub1lh273a4wpkup00stw8dzqjvvrqrfdrv2v3v4t8pynuezlfe5vjnsnaa9nk Luke Dashjr Explains a lot, though. We need a purge. npub1lh273a4wpkup00stw8dzqjvvrqrfdrv2v3v4t8pynuezlfe5vjnsnaa9nk Luke Dashjr An update on this thread, for full clarity: There are now a total of 8 new bugs which can cause wallet deletion or corruption. My initial comment applies only to the initial, severe bug that affects people simply using Core30 normally. @nprofile…m9s8 _is_, however, impacted by 6 of the others, which are not triggered by normal end users: 3 of these are "power user" functionality (moving wallet files around manually; creating unexpected files in the wallet directory; or using the `bitcoin-wallet` command line tool) 1 of them requires a low-level disk/filesystem/OS problem during shutdown. The remaining 2 are unrealistic to trigger at all, but hypothetically possible if you start the node software again immediately before it finishes shutting down (within milliseconds), or ... have multiple wallets in the same directory, one of which has recent changes, the node crashes or has a power failure, you start the node again and NOT open the recently-modified wallet, open the other wallet, and shutdown cleanly. All six of these issues will be fixed in a new version of Knots soon. #nevent1q…qzjl npub1lh273a4wpkup00stw8dzqjvvrqrfdrv2v3v4t8pynuezlfe5vjnsnaa9nk Luke Dashjr FYI, @nprofile…m9s8 is NOT impacted by the Core30 wallet deletion bug. https://x.com/LukeDashjr/status/2008326237962277039?s=20 npub1lh273a4wpkup00stw8dzqjvvrqrfdrv2v3v4t8pynuezlfe5vjnsnaa9nk Luke Dashjr Liar npub1lh273a4wpkup00stw8dzqjvvrqrfdrv2v3v4t8pynuezlfe5vjnsnaa9nk Luke Dashjr Guess I replied to the wrong post...I meant the top one npub1lh273a4wpkup00stw8dzqjvvrqrfdrv2v3v4t8pynuezlfe5vjnsnaa9nk Luke Dashjr 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.
