I don’t like all the unnecessary stylistic changes Knots makes to Core source code because it makes comparing differences time consuming, but I got comfortable with it. I would prefer if it was a minimal patch that I apply to Core source code.\n\nIt took me a very long time to decide to run Knots with BIP-110. I eventually decided that to stop Libre Relay and Slipstream (and similar) spam threats, we need to change consensus rules because they deliberately bypass node filters. Even if BIP-110 fails, I think we should try as a community.\n\nI’m an “almost” monetary maximalist. Open timestamps, and other minimal data payload use cases are fine with me. I would even be ok with OP_RETURN allowing a small payload of say150 bytes to support use cases like Citrea - even though I’m not a fan of Citrea.\n\nI’ve been really disappointed with all the ad-hominem attacks from both sides. It’s a distraction from the key issues in my opinion."}
