The invention of the Bitcoin protocol is not the invention of digital money. It is the invention of digital laws of physics.
The protocol's significance is not that it specifically created a cryptocurrency. It is that, for the first time, it imposed physics-like constraints (scarcity, irreversibility, thermodynamic cost) onto a domain that previously had none. Digital space, prior to Bitcoin, was a realm of infinite and costless replication. Bitcoin changed the rules of that space for itself.
It is only within a digitally constrained environment, one governed by its own *immutable* laws, that a truly digital commodity can emerge. And it is only from a genuine digital commodity that sound digital money can arise.
You cannot have digital money without first having digital physics.

Hey @nprofile…5jyy, when self hosting alby hub how persistent does the nwc.db (or postgres) need to be? Like if that DB happens to get deleted, but the rest of the work_dir survives, upon reboot would it just rebuild the nwc database?
In my homelab persistent storage is provided by an NFS share. Right now the entire workdir is a share. But the sqlite queries are often pretty slow (likely from the NFS overhead. Trying to decided whether I externalize a postgres DB or just let the sqlite DB write to a truly local file on the computer node (where it would lose its persistence guarantees)

Respectfully, disagree.
Bitcoin's breakthrough was that you don't have to trust *a central bank*. Bitcoins breakthrough is trustless scarcity.
Hyper-bitcoinization does not imply trust is removed from every layer of our markets (financial or otherwise). Markets necessarily require financialization, and financialization requires varying levels of consensual trust. That consensual trust is GOOD and beneficial as long as the foundation is a sound money.
It does not mean trust further up the stack will never be broken, of course it will. But when that trust is built/broken on top of a sound money, the system can heal properly.
Various market interactions will always trend towards centralization and trusted models, because they are inherently more efficient along the happy path. That's a good thing (once coercion is removed!).

2025-09-14 04:22:47 UTC

(Warning: long rant)
My liberal friends are completely oblivious about how radicalizing the last week has been for tens of millions of normal Americans. Zero clue.
I’m not talking about people who are “online”; I mean regular, everyday Americans. “Normies.” People who scroll through Facebook posts and Instagram reels from the Dutch Bros drive thru line. Political moderates who have water cooler chats about Mahomes touchdowns and Bon Jovi concerts, not Twitter threads or Rachel Maddow monologues.
Millions of them. Tens of millions. They’re logging on, they’re engaging, and they’re furious.
And I’ll be candid: They blame you guys. They blame the left.
Regardless of whether you believe it to be justified, they think you’re the bad guys here. And they are reacting accordingly.
I can already hear some of you racing toward the comments to start screeching in moral indignation, so I’m going to be blunt: Shut up and listen to what I’m telling you. Your movement will lose any semblance of relevance if you don’t develop some small measure of self-awareness, and—absent someone force-feeding you bitter medicine—you guys collectively lack the humility to do this on your own.
Here are the facts:
Fact 1. Tens of millions of Americans started the week seeing a 23-year-old blonde woman—a young woman in whom virtually every parent watching pictured their own daughter—stabbed in the neck by a career criminal. These people then found out the murderer had been released from jail 14 times over.
Fact 2. Two days later, tens of millions of Americans watched a video of Charlie Kirk get murdered speaking to college students. Millions of these people knew who Charlie was; millions of them didn’t. Upon seeing the video, however, these normal Americans from across the land and across the political spectrum agreed that he was the victim of a terrible, fundamentally unjustifiable crime, and their hearts broke in sympathy for his family. Good people who had never even heard the name Charlie Kirk before wept.
Fact 3. Immediately after seeing the footage of a peaceful young man get shot in the neck, these same people logged onto Facebook and Instagram (remember, we are talking about regular Americans, not perpetually online Twitter or Bluesky users) and saw some of their local nurses, school teachers, college administrators, and retail workers celebrating this horrific crime. Not just defending it, but cheering it.
These are all facts. You may not like the implications of these facts, and we can certainly debate the underlying causes thereof, but, indisputably, they are nevertheless factual statements.
Here’s what it means for you, the Democrats reading this:
These normal, middle-of-the-road, non-political citizens just become politically active. They realized that politics cares about them, even if they don’t particularly care about politics. After watching Iryna Zarutska and Charlie Kirk both bleed out from the neck, they think their lives and the physical safety of their families—the bedrock of human society, the foundation of Maslow’s hierarchy of needs—depend on political activation, whether they desire it or not.
These people are now sprinting—not jogging, not walking, but racing—to the right. Because they blame you guys for everything that just happened.
When they see footage of Decarlos Brown stabbing a Ukrainian refugee to death, they don’t see just one demon-possessed man. They picture every university administrator, HR bureaucrat, and DEI apparatchik that ever lectured them about systemic racism, the “carceral state,” or the need to release violent crime suspects without bail in the name of social justice.
They then think back to conversations they’ve had with their cop friends—their buddy from high school who quit the force after getting tired of being called a racist, their friend at the local YMCA who vents about having to release career criminals because Soros-funded prosecutors aren’t willing to file charges—and they realize everything the left has told them over the last five years has been utter bullshit.
And they blame you. Because, even if you count yourself as a moderate Democrat, your party supported the district attorneys, city council members, and mayors that let fictitious concerns about mental health and racial justice supersede very real concerns for their family’s safety.
When these Americans see blood erupt from the side of Charlie Kirk’s neck, they don’t see just a martyred political activist. They think of every extreme leftist they’ve ever met who (1) calls anyone to the right of Hillary Clinton a fascist and (2) constantly jokes—“jokes”—about punching Nazis and “bashing the fash.”
They realize that there really do exist people who wish to see them dead for their moderately conservative political beliefs, their Christian faith, and even the color of their skin. They ask themselves if the violence visited upon Charlie might one day show up on their own doorstep.
And they blame you. Because, even if you’re just a center-of-the-road liberal, you lacked the courage to police your own ranks. You let modern-day Maoist red guards run loose across every facet of society, and what started with social-media struggle sessions has now turned to 30-06 bullet holes.
When these Americans log onto social media and see their neighbors justifying, celebrating, glorifying murder, they realize that some who walk among them are soulless ghouls at best, literally demon-possessed at worst. These people—whether they faithfully attend church every Sunday or only attend with relatives once a year, on Christmas Eve—start talking about things like spiritual warfare. They implicitly understand that no normal human casually celebrates the mortal demise of a peaceful person.
And they blame you. Because, even if you condemned Charlie Kirk’s murder, they probably haven’t seen you condemn those in your own movement who cheered it on. They view you as complicit in allowing heartless fellow travelers to celebrate death, and it repulses them.
For all of these situations, what has your response been? Nothing but bullshit.
In response to Iryna Zarutska bleeding out on the floor of a train, you post bullshit statistics about reductions in reported crime, when everyone who’s ever been to a major urban center in the last decade knows that actual crime has skyrocketed, only for victims not to waste their time reporting it to cops that don’t have the manpower to respond and prosecutors that seek to downgrade as many felonies as possible to misdemeanor citations.
In response to a 31-year-old man taking a bullet to the neck in front of his family, you post nothing but bullshit whataboutism.
> “What about January 6th?” (Honest answer: After you let Liz Cheney spend two years operating a star chamber in the House, combined with countless other failed attempts at “lawfare” against Trump, no one cares anymore.)
> “What about Mike Lee making a dumb joke on Twitter about some guy in a mask in Minnesota?” (No one outside of Utah, DC, or Twitter knows who Mike Lee even is.)
> “What about Paul Pelosi?” (That’s not comparable to Charlie Kirk getting shot, and we all know it. And, again, Paul who?)
> “What about regulations on assault rifles?” (That’s not going to get you very far when one of these killers used a knife and the other one used a common hunting rifle.)
In response to teachers, healthcare workers, and thousands of other liberals cheering on Charlie’s murder, it’s nothing but more bullshit and misdirection.
> “It’s not THAT many people celebrating!” (Yes, it is. Everyone has seen it on their Facebook and Instagram feeds.)
> “I thought you guys didn’t support cancel culture.” (We don’t cancel people over their opinions; we’re more than happy to see people lose their jobs—especially their taxpayer-funded jobs—for actively cheering on murder, though. If you can’t see the difference, that’s your own shortcoming.)
All bullshit. Not even smart bullshit, but stale, mid-grade, low-IQ bullshit. Ordinary Americans see right through it, and they don’t like how it smells.
You probably don’t like hearing this. But you need to hear it.
Because I’m right, and, as you reflect on this, you know I’m right. The ranks of my political movement gained millions of righteously angry new members this week. We have a mandate to ensure these crimes never happen again, and that’s exactly what we are now going to do.
If you want to keep a seat at the table as we do so, you’d better clean house and start policing your own.

Definitely does legally. Believe me I totally understand the disgust at potentially having to store something you don not want if you run a full archiving node. There are options though, like a prunable full node if you only care about the UTXO set (financial transactions). I just have a hard time finding an edge to that argument. Like what if someone pays for a nuke and kills millions of innocent people with it. May seem like a crazy scenario but if Bitcoin becomes the world's money, it's a non zero chance. Do you want to be part of that purely financial data propagation?

The crucial distinction is the type of technical cost imposed on nodes, not the philosophical definition of "spam" or "bloat"
* OP_RETURN / Witness Data: This is a temporary tax on cheap resources. It consumes bandwidth and CPU for validation. A pruned node then discards the data. The cost is paid once, and it's over.
* Fake P2PKH Addresses: This is a permanent tax on expensive resources. It consumes the same temporary bandwidth and CPU, but also adds a permanent entry to the UTXO set. This consumes RAM on every full node, forever.
The fact that each P2PKH entry is only 20 bytes is irrelevant. A permanent, compounding tax on RAM is fundamentally more harmful to the network than a one-time tax on bandwidth.

I think the vast majority of folks agree with that. Spam not existing would be *great*. But, since spammers do exist, I think most people are genuinely interested in finding the best way to reduce the harm the cause.
When comparing P2FKH spam and OP_RETURN spam, I'm not sure I understand how P2FKH is less harmful. Both spams cost the spammer sats. They are both paying for their transaction weight. The obvious upside to everyone else if the spam is within OP_RETURN is that we don't have to store it. P2FKH spam my node has to keep forever.
What is the perceived positive tradeoff in your mind?

"The Bitcoin protocol ecosystem is currently engaged in a nuanced and technically complex debate surrounding the OP_RETURN opcode and its associated relay policies. This discussion, while echoing the philosophical undertones of past conflicts, represents a fundamentally different class of challenge than the 2015-2017 blocksize wars."

You have complete and total control over your mempool. It exists only insofar as you allow it to exist. It looks like what you allow it to look like.
At the very same time, you have zero control over my mempool. It doesn't even know you exist. Your mempool is irrelevant to mine.
Both of our mempools are irrelevant to the timechain.
