"The Party told you to reject the evidence of your eyes and ears. It was their final, most essential command." from 1984 by George Orwell. To see spam on the chain and somehow know that it is bad but then not reject it because you are against censorship is just a clear example of this Orwellian Newspeak. #BIP110

Paraphrasing Dr. Jack Kruse: You shall not mess with your DNA (the base chain). Not everything belongs on-chain. The Library of Alexandria isn't encoded in your DNA, either. #BIP110

Allowing the destruction of the common land (time chain) by protecting the freedom to spam under the guise of "no censorship" seems to be the new tragedy of the commons. Indeed tragic ;-) #BIP110

In a hyperbitcoinized world, investing will again be done by professional investors, and regular people will focus on their craft and save real money.

Bitcoin is a living digital creature that needs energy (hashrate) and a working immune system (#BIP110) to survive and prosper.

The bitcoin economists and philosophers have done an excellent job so far, but all their conclusions will be nullified as well if the underpinning of the network fails (decentralization). The current issue of spam, in the end, is not only a technical discussion and will have consequences for their work as well in the long run. #BIP110

The principles of bitcoin have to be protected every day anew by the community. Therefore, the diagnosed cancer (spam) must be treated accordingly. #BIP110

If the bitcoin community cannot stand up against spam now, it will not withstand even more severe attacks either in the future. Do you really believe this community can successfully fight the next wave of attacks, such as those on the KYC/AML front? Fear of a possible temporary chain split is a terrible guide here; giving in preemptively is cowardice and demonstrates high time preference. Shame on all the sinfluencers acting out of fear. #BIP110

It is not without a certain irony that the inventor of an antispam concept (hashcash) is now best friends with spam. The angel has fallen ;-)

You do not have to be a system architect, a security expert, or a developer to sense that storing data representing over $1 trillion in the same place as the recycling bin is a bad idea — that is just common sense. Sinfluencers are trying to confuse you on this point. Do not listen to them. #BIP110

#BIP110 is a moratorium. Rejecting it because one parameter would be better changed is just obstruction. You can either act now or wait indefinitely—but acting will get harder and harder the longer you wait.

Something is rotten in bitcoin land: The influencer ten years ago preached that bitcoin would be defended by the vigilantes who would blow the whistle on any suspicious development in the ecosystem, but today a lot of sinfluencers are sleeping or even attacking the vigilantes and calling them "the mob". Slay your heroes of the past that betrayed the principles of bitcoin and stick to the original principles. #BIP110

Will the "convenience layer" of bitcoin protect the "'right to spam" by doing nothing, or will they step up and choose the #BIP110 soft fork and avoid any potential disturbance in their cozy life? That is the question.

Do not think there is not an operation like "Operation Gladio" going on in bitcoin at the moment. This time freedom itself is the target. Most of the effort for an assault is creating a narrative that will then be fed to the public for them to believe. Even the main actors may not be aware of the conspiracy unfolding. So, what is the narrative now? For instance, #BIP110 is being presented as an attack on bitcoin, yet this is merely a distraction from the real attack that has been happening under the surface for years. The true goal is to weaken decentralization and split the community, ensuring regular people do not have access to the "escape hatch." So, wake up.

Bringing up quantum FUD now in the bitcoin space just unmasks the sinfluencer as saboteur. Distracting from the most important thing - the exploding UTXO set by spam - just means literally following the "Simple Sabotage Field Manual" by the OSS (now CIA) step by step. #BIP110

The medieval alchemist failed to make more real money, aka gold, but the modern alchemist succeeded with fake money, aka fiat paper money. Let's return to real money by using bitcoin.

Oh no, the illogical "throwing out the baby with the bathwater" argumentation is still spooking around out there: We cannot prevent all spam therefore we just give up completely ;-) #BIP110
