So let me get this straight: a group of people wanted to make a mempool policy change and got significant pushback. So they propose the "compromise" of a consensus change soft fork? Sounds more like an escalation than a compromise but I'd still hear out the proposed fork.

Where does node centralization fall on that list?

This specific argument aside, are you generally fine with contentious changes getting pushed through? It was my understanding that the burden of proof lies with the people advocating for a change. Why is it appropriate to be turning your back on the debate now?

I haven't heard a serious argument for why we need to remove the data carrier limit. Bitcoin is working perfectly fine for me.

I will switch back to core if someone can clearly and calmly explain why we need 100 KB of op return.

I can hardly remember how my brain worked before studying Bitcoin. This is the true hurdle to orange pilling.

I just came across this as Peter Ryan was interviewed on Breaking Points. He clearly demonstrates a lack of understanding of what Bitcoin is and how it works. He pushed the laughable FUD line of "how do we know the supply is fixed". I'd love to see Peter Ryan talk to a Bitcoiner

Using opentimestamps.org for these bullshit safe harbor documents feels great.

It's impossible to realize how influential the algorithms are until you free yourself of them.

A young lad at the local watering hole told me they'd rather put paper money into the juke box than connect via the app because the paper money feels less real than the number in their bank account.

Agreed, you always need to be aware of your counterparty risk. But in terms of scaling solutions, what if a #Bitcoin friendly nation developed an L2 or fedimint. Yes you're trusting an entity not to rug you and there are potential privacy issues but I'm pondering an ideal government-bitcoin relationship.

Completely agree. I guess I'm trying to envision an ideal and/or realistic way a government could layer a fiat currency on top of #Bitcoin. I guess what I'm envisioning is actually more of a government fedimint.

What if the CBDC was an open source L2 (or higher) on #Bitcoin?
