Unbelievable how close we were to victory, and that it was ocean block that killed it. If that third ocean block had been BIP110, the large pools would have flipped the bit.
Given the option to run code that
1/ limits arbitrary data, or
2/ allows arbitrary data
Why would any average pleb choose #2?
To protect bitcoin AND avoid a chain split, run BIP110. Worse case it expires in a year.
@Luke de Wolf Great discussion with @Guy Swann
Just ordered your book.
I run knots + BIP110. The best way to avoid a chain split of to simply signal for 110. There's no reason not to.
I wish you guys had discussed the temporary nature of 110 and that method of making changes to bitcoin. If that method had been used with taproot, I doubt we would still have it.
