Thanks for the video @Matthew Kratter. I've been slowly educating one of cousins to Bitcoin as all this is unfolding. Your videos are the only thing that has made sense to him. I told him this is how this all has to playout. He's now running knots doing his part. Nobody wants to store this stuff on their computers if they don't have to. That is the only argument to make. My family relies on this shit too. View quoted note →

I run multiple full nodes. All knots now. But I don't want to prune. I just want a spam free node. And while we can't stop it all we can at least try to fix what was very recently broken. Why does everyone think people who don't want to deal with this have to adjust. Core 30 forced this issue and they are not Bitcoin. They are people who make a client that people trusted and we don't. It's really that simple. I DON'T TRUST CORE. perhaps that should be the social Media campaign. But something has to be done to wake people up to what is actually going on as we were running up to 120k and people were predicting $1M Bitcoin while the core team was actively turning Bitcoin into the new home of the nft bullshit we all laughed at. None of that was even possible before all the changes that bip110 is trying to address. But when people are trying to say that @Matthew Kratter is a bad actor in all this I am just flabbergasted. Utterly flabbergasted. There is nothing that can be said to me that ordinals and inscriptions and large op returns make Bitcoin better money than fiat. In fact everything core has done over the last 2 years has been nothing but fiat. this is not a technical debate anymore this a moral debate. And my morals are not up for debate. #idonttrustcore
Running unpruned Knots on all nodes is the way. The spam filter debate always circles back to the same thing — define spam without creating a gatekeeper. At least with Knots you get to set your own policy.

The txs were always valid. V30 didn’t make them valid. Spam is subjective. If you are running knots you are pruning in a way.
That’s true. But the fact that a bug has existed for a long time and was rarely used doesn’t mean it should be ignored once it starts being used more frequently.
