Spam Apologists: What is Spam?
Me: What is the Numerical Value in the Amount Field of a Bitcoin Output?
The Truth: Money is Bitcoin’s Dominant Strategy. There is no second best.
What it is and what it shall be.

Take delight in things for themselves without reference to yourself… The chain of memory is resurrection.
“If the army is passing through hilly ground where there may be ponds with reed beds or woods with thickets, these must be thoroughly searched for they are ideal cover for spies and traitors.”

The Art of Bitcoin is vigilance & diligence.
Stay wary, my merry fellows.
More Bitcoin Homework just dropped.
Educate yourself on the issues and signal your support for BIP-110 with all means of signaling at your disposal to defend Bitcoin from Spam.
Rug the Spammers.

BIP-110
BIP-110: Reduced Data Temporary Softfork
Temporarily limit the size of data fields at the consensus level to protect Bitcoin
Knots = Lean Mean Sound Money Machine with Margin of Safety + Optionality + Apex Predator Mentality
Core v.30 = Sound Money Getting Weighed Down by Dusty DickButts + Technobabble Functionality + Naive Prey Mentality
Knots + Ocean + DATUM = Bitcoin’s Golden Bridge
Many people telling you to “just outbid the Spammers”
… are also telling you to “just spend your Bitcoin and trigger a cap gains, income tax, and sales tax”
…and we also need CTV, Covenants, and more functionality
And also telling you filters are bad for Bitcoin.

Block Template Centralization is the obvious threat to Bitcoin’s censorship resistance, but overt censorship like OFAC compliance is too obvious.
We would route around that.
So attackers ran a covert attack using spamouflage & spambiguity to censor Bitcoin with bullshit data.
Covid was gain of function.
Quantum is gain of function.
Non-monetary data on Bitcoin is gain of function.
Electronic Peer to Peer Cash is gain of gumption.

Trespass: a violation of moral or social ethics; an unwarranted infringement

Spam is Trespass.
Bitcoin is Money.
Spam is Trespass on Bitcoin.

Would you buy an insurance policy from a company that turns a blind eye to moral hazard and reckless behavior by its other policy holders?
Or would you prefer if the insurance company tried to mitigate moral hazard and reckless behavior?
Now apply these questions to Bitcoin.
The block size limit in 2010 was for spam prevention and it was definitely not suicidal or delusional… similar preventative thinking and strategy is required today…
we need to stop being so passive… good Byzantine Generals are vigilant
Spam is slow poison that poses gradually than suddenly risks to Bitcoin.
Now is the time to Act and cut this cancer out of our culture.
Why can't anyone on the Anti-Filter side make a persuasive argument that defends Core v.30 normalizing 100kb Op_Returns + neglecting obvious Spam vulnerabilities for almost 3 years now. Bitcoin Maintainers are supposed to maintain Bitcoin. Instead, they neglect basic maintenance.
Fix vulnerabilities, maximize Bitcoin's Monetary Quality.
Maximize Bitcoin's Monetary Quality, maximize Bitcoin's Potential.
Maximize Bitcoin's Potential, Maximize Humanity's Potential.
If you know, you Knots.

There is no better way to out yourself as ignorant or malicious than socially or technically signaling support for non-monetary data (spam) on Bitcoin.
Bitcoin Toxicity implies hostility to the ignorant and malicious who misuse
Bitcoin.
Bitcoin needs strong Catechism & Deacons.
BIP-110, The Cat, The Lynx, and Dust expiry are nice options.
Luke’s reactive soft fork to a hostile Spam attack is a nice option.
Bitcoin users reserve the right to exercise consensus options.
Rug the exchanges. Rug the Spammers.
Stay vigilant. Run Knots.

Bitcoiners opposing spam filters for Bitcoin full nodes is like Dutch People opposing Dikes and Canals for their Polders.
Spam filters benefit Bitcoiners like Dikes and Canals benefit the Dutch.
Cooperation despite differences.
Bitcoin Core should support filters.
🇳🇱🇺🇸🦅🫡
Satoshi in 2010: Oh shit, I should have included a block size limit on Bitcoin to mitigate Spam. I'll add that.
Core/Spam Apologists in 2025: You agreed to 4MB Bitcoin Blocks and the Taproot upgrade! There's no going back! Deal with it!
Do you see the difference?
Quantum FUD is a distraction from Spam attacks.
There are Shitcoin Citrea peopl like Peter Thiel, Balaji, and Voorhees at Bitcoin’s Gates who want to turn Bitcoin into a Fiat Shitcoin Spam Dumping Ground.
Fuck that. Filters up.✊🏼🫡
Theoretical Quantum Risk < Real Spam Risks
Bitcoin is Money and has options to address Quantum risks and Spam risks.
But we have to prioritize the risks in the proper order.
Addressing obvious problems > Anticipating theoretically possible problems
24-Karat Bitcoin > 14-Karat Bitcoin
Gloria ran away from Twitter.
Greg Maxwell isn’t on Twitter.
Adam Back and many other Core v.30 simps block pro-Filter advocates.
This is not what The Truth being on your side looks like.
1 BTC + Less Spam > 1 BTC + More Spam
