Ah yes the politician that likes to flip flop back and fourth on his stance on 110 because he does zero technical research is wondering why the people who were against 110 might be against another core wrapper grift.

Is this a joke?

Fork core and immediately ask for donations?

I can understand wanting multiple implementations and forking the open source project that is bitcoin core to do something different to advance the protocol and then afterwards asking for donations to complete the idea or take it further and/or expand upon it.

I can also understand wanting to be conservative, and wanting to work on older versions prior to v30 without more advanced SFs in the future, there's a market for that.

But slapping a shiny new name, logo and website on a straight fork of core, with a donation button as the first thing you see, and where 2 of the 4 main supporters literally won't let you reply to their tweets unless you follow them...

That looks a lot more like a virtue signal powered LARP begging for money than "multiple implementations".

I am not being unfair, NOBODY REVIEWS LUKE'S CHANGES.

Look at the Knots specific PRs that shipped in recent releases like Luke's own policy level changes:
#136 (permitephemeral)
https://github.com/bitcoinknots/bitcoin/pull/136
#148 (minrelaymaturity/minrelaycoinblocks)
https://github.com/bitcoinknots/bitcoin/pull/148
#205 (wallet migration bugfix)
https://github.com/bitcoinknots/bitcoin/pull/205

These were all merged by Luke with zero independent reviewer approvals on each of them and these aren't cosmetic changes they're policy modifications that affect transaction filtering and relay behavior.

In Core, changes like these would require multiple independent reviewers before they could ship.

Apparently all the Knots people don't understand that Knots is just Luke's personal project that he unilaterally pushes changes to whenever he feels like with no public community review whatsoever.

2026-02-04T05:52:48Z

See what Knots / 110 folks don't seem to understand is that Core tried to take a stand at the relay level (safer) and literally everyone ignored them.

So doing it at the consensus level (far more dangerous) would certainly cause a split, which is exactly what 110 is going to do.

And even then it doesn't actually prevent spam as Peter Todd proved when he embedded the entire 110 pdf doc in a 110 compliant transaction :/

So when the split inevitably happens and a future market forms, 110 will be on the losing end.

2026-01-31T16:17:40Z

Reminder:

The social contract wasn't broken by Core, it was broken in February 2024 when MARA launched Slipstream.

Slipstream is a service to mine any consensus valid transaction for the right fee, bypassing normal mempool policy entirely.

This contract was technically enforced by mempool filters like the 83-byte OP_RETURN limit, however Mara’s Slipstream proved that these filters were just "gentlemen's agreements" that large miners could bypass at will.

Core's op return changes 20 months later weren't "enabling spam", they were acknowledging this broken contract and that the filter had already failed because you can't enforce gentlemen's agreements when miners are openly advertising they'll ignore them.

These changes once again even the playing field for those wanting to get their transactions mined.

It's harm reduction, plain and simple.

Once again I'm here to remind you just as I did when Roger was spreading FUD across twitter and the media, the sky is NOT falling. There are simply those that would use fear to control others for the purpose of gaining power.

There is no Knots vs Core, Knots is just a downstream fork from Core. People should run whatever they want but I surely would not use Knots for mission-critical operations.

Coindance has been pretty inaccurate about node data but sure, again though ~3k nodes is hardly anything compared to the 100k+ core nodes, so best of luck trying to put a dent in that
