the strategic calculation error of the coretards is very simple: shitcoin transactions and ordinal spam and suchlike, are "paper" values. they entirely depend on "paper" money from central banks. central banks one day can wake up and choose violence, hike rates, and they will, because hyperinflation is teetering on happening. the eurasian continent is abandoning the USD as fast as it can. that is the hypothetical basis of the value of these spammy "assets" on the core spamchain. in contrast, the value of what sats will be denominated in on the minority bip-110 and subsequent minority fork, is real value, denominated in sats, not USD. that is what really changes the equation. don't give up just because lukedashjr's and dathonohm's efforts fail. we get forked off. let's build an exchange. let's petition small exchanges to list the minority coin. the UTXO set is still there. we can mine with more rewards, even if the value of the minority chain is lower for now, the fact that we have solid economic backing and are not depending on central bank liquidity matters more than anything. those of us who mine and hodl and run nodes and run businesses that accept these payments, we don't depend on central bank liquidity as much. that's the achilles heel of the coretard spamchain. they are aligned with the global monetary scam. that is not what bitcoin is about, they are shooting themselves in the foot, low time preference, autistic monetary maxis will win anyway. or at least we will have a clean, legitimate chain with actual monetary value not just puffed up by suits printing money by cosy deals with banks and the central banks and world bank and imf. you want the parallel economy? then you should support the minority fork chain anyway. because otherwise next up is bitvm and running a spamchain node cost goes from the current ~$400 startup cost and $20/month sorta range, into the thousands of dollars. i've seen what it's like in shitcoin land. EPYC nodes with a terabyte of memory and 64+ terabyte. just to run an Internet Computer node. price is in the range of $70-200 THOUSAND dollars. that's where spamchain ends up. some of us don't care about being in the majority. we care about the real economics and ethics. i will run a reduced data signalling node indefinitely. i will modify my node to retain it even after the flag day in 4 days. they can have fun licking central bankers boots. i'm here to do real business.

Legend. Sweet relief. I knew there were some true sound money maxing retards out there (that was a compliment). Supporting all the way!
i am working up a knots-based fork. it also has a new transaction type that will go up for UASF after bip-110 activation - if that fails majority hashpower, which is likely, then the chain will be isolated. but we can still feed from the same mempool and keep the bip-110 compliant transactions. we can solo mine on it, 40x chance of winning a block on the minority fork. sure, big miners on core can switch to our chain and mine but they can't mine spam into it, the nodes will not accept the blocks. that's what we want. if we can't have their hashpower, we can still make enough hashpower to keep it. i don't see what there is to lose when staying with the herd of actually retarded central bank bootlicking spamtards is compromising the whole point of bitcoin. "assets" are paper, hypothetical. sats are real. a foreverbip110 fork will have real sats, not inflated ones. and i'm super pleased to see that others agree. i will focus on getting this thing together so it runs, and i will be running a node at smesh.lol IP on my VPS. i'm also welcoming others hosting their own replicas of the codebase and keeping them synced up, so we can cherrypick off the work of the bankster funded core devs what is of value and leave out the garbage. being in the minority, on the right side of history, is better than doing nothing, and there is thousands of shitcoins out there. bitcoin core is becoming one of them. i'm not being part of that. in fact i'm considering that i can cut my pruning to 32gb and run a core chain on the other side and build a small exchange to trade between them. that is the bridge that next to the mempool cross talk, creates a way to discover the value of the forked sats. it's not difficult to do, and having one node already synced, i add the foreverbip110 fork node alongside it and i can accept payments in both with two separate btcpayserver instances. i can make a small exchange app with order books and just focus on trading between the two. sure, the coretards will dump but i'll still collect fees and use them to buy more foreversats.
we are few but we are bound by our hearts to the ethics that bitcoin represents. short term they win this battle but long term they can't win the battle that is structurally in our favor.
If this turns out to be a majority of bitcoin ecosystem conspiracy its hard to imagine gettting support from exchanges after the split as they are all dependent on market makers who are likely to be a part of such conspiracy. In such a scenario we would get BIP110 Bitcoin rid of centralised miners, corrupt devs, shitcoin casinos, state and large corporations accumulators, propagandists, fake celebrities - basically everything Bitcoiners want to abandon anyway in exchange for stolen brand and network effect so the hijackers can take GMO Bitcoin and sell it to their fiat followers. One could even argue all of this is still favourable to BIP110 Bitcoin since the success of Bitcoin heavily depends on people individually raising their knowledge of the one problem Bitcoin solves which is fiat money and consequently the brilliant engineering solution Bitcoin offers.
