ossify the base chain, let let the current stack mature and allow businesses built on the to also mature, and most importantly increase ground adoption and circular economies, this is the time, new use cases and requirements should rise from visible usage and user demand, not by "wouldn't be cool if in the future you could do X?" or insert any far-fetched need that no one has now and with limited benefits.

Looking back did anyone really asked for taproot? is there any good use case for it? no. Yet this no brainer harmless SF has brought a wave of spam into the chain, then ok, it's bad, let's do a "fix" no one asked, increase op_return! internal wars, ok now let's fix all this mess by undoing some of these things, a SF that might freeze coins and cause a chainsplit! Jfc, something usefull like op_vault to help users self custody? nah just shit nobody uses. And people still want to add more shit. Core mission should be by default say no to any changes.

Am i missing something? why is everyone making such a big deal of this dip?

TheRage is badicly that Lola chick and she hates Luke and Ocean and she is pro spam. What's the surprise?

Core had the upper hand. They could tell Citrea that either they can work with a reasonable amount of op_return or they can get rekt. Instead Core said please don't harm us, we will open a nice door for you and anyone else.

Ok, so filters are bad for Citrea business but they would do more harm by bloating the utxo set, yes, unless you add filters for them like Luke said. Ok, but then it would be a useless cat and mouse game, cat and mouse games is something a decentralized censorship resistant business like citrea cannot afford to play. Bitcoin can.

If filters don't work, why doesn't Citrea still used op_return anyway ? Because they work, in the sense that for Citrea even if possible it's a big risk for their business, that s why they went for the option of putting it in the utxo set, because of filters and they need bitcoin network censorship resistance.

Very simple for me. 1- if filters don't work at all, it's ok to leave it. 2-if they work, leave it or spam will skyrocket. 3-in doubt, don't change bitcoin. Core handled this very badly. So for me it's run old version of Core, or Knots, to leave bitcoin as it is now.
