You are very smart
I'm not. I'm just paying attention.
He hadn’t contributed in years and look at what he’s coming back with…

Don’t think he’s alone, Sjors supports this PR. 23rd largest bitcoin contributor.

Thanks for the report 👍
I love Peter Todd, but he does have some ideas that are controversial. That is as it should be. I dont think he's a bad actor, I think bitcoin benefits hugely from voices that go against the mainstream. Heresy is the lifeblood of a movement, dogma is its death. In this case it was worth a down vote, because bitcoin is best used as a financial network, rather than low cost cloud storage. By using pointers on bitcoin to point to off chain storage, e.g. with single use seals, everyone can get what they want.
ChristopherA is imho a shit coiner, or at least has shit coin tendencies (look at his sponsors). I asked the so-called block chain commons why it was supporting premined ethereum. No answer. He also beats up on nostr here. People like that should not be sponsoring changes in bitcoin core. Well dont on fighting this off.
Yes, but more generally nobody should be able to set the default relaying policy for all node runners by offering a measly $1000 to the right person.
It doesn't sit well with the "Bitcoin is unstoppable" narrative 😬

His proposals are totally unacceptable. I think it's time to remove him. He's obviously gone over to the #darkside.
All non #Bitcoin financial #transactions must go. Specifically things like #ordinals etc. And other #inscriptions #backdoors and #frontdoors.
He's gone off on some little self-serving tangent. Most probably getting kickbacks from the bad guys. He has to go.
The #code has to be #cleaned up and #lock down. That's the current job of all Bitcoin #developers. Not creating more #backdoors and #frontdoors.
If he doesn't go peacefully we'll sue the #Fuck! out of him, and boot him out in disgrace..👹
It is easy to see that bitcoin is not efficient when it comes to functioning as a cloud storage medium. I don't know how these smart guys don't realize and put their non-financial random data off-chain
I don't have the time to #fuck around on #GitHub right now. But you can relay my message to whom it may concern..💀
@fiatjaf bruh. Are you an Agent of Chaos? 😅

Also was active promoting Ordinal Theory
Some #developer named #Todd is apparently responsible for the #inscriptions garbage such as #ordinals etc. And wants to fill #Bitcoin with more #corrupt and #destructive garbage.
He has to go. He can step down or the #Bitcoin community will sue the Fuck! out of him.
Pass the word and start building financial support for the most #vicious and #aggressive #prosecution available..💀
👍
Criminal..👎
It's an attack on #Bitcoin. They're trying to destroy Bitcoin by bloating Bitcoin with garbage. An #artificially raising transaction fees with non Bitcoin #transactions. For big miners who probably give them a kickback.
They all have to go..💀
Yep, you now see why I said legal action may be necessary. These #scumbags are trying to take #Bitcoin from all of you. Kick them to the curb..💀
not surprising that it is coming from #[0] hes been acting a bit strange lately, wanting to remove the 21m limit and spreading lies when #[1] got hacked
Policy discussions belong on the mailinglist imo.
Can you show folks how to participate in the mailing list, then?
Christopher said in the PR that his intention was to "have a legitimate discussion" about this policy change, and I'm obliging.
Do you understand what the term "Concept NACK" means?
The list is here:
https://lists.linuxfoundation.org/mailman/listinfo/bitcoin-dev
Changing policy rules is relevant for all Bitcoin software, not just Bitcoin Core.
That said, the mailinglist should be limited to technical arguments. In the sense of RFC 7282.

RFC 7282: On Consensus and Humming in the IETF | RFC Editor
The IETF has had a long tradition of doing its technical work through a consensus process, taking into account the different views among IETF parti...
For full on political takes like "let's sue x", social media is a better place.
Limit or no limit? 👀

Appreciate the heads up
No, policy is something users decide for themselves, not something standardized across the network.
Policy isn't rules at all, and if it affects you, you're writing broken software
Remove/boot him from what?
All #Bitcoin discussion belongs in the open. #Sunshine is the best #disinfectant.
There's no question that #development has become #diseased, #rancid and #putrid. It's time for some fresh air..⚖️👮♂️💀
EXACTLY!..⚖️👮♂️💀😠
From whatever influence he has on the current corrupt direction of Bitcoin core development. Including any other corrupted players.
They're messing with the money. That's always going to get a player in trouble. Satoshi design his system to limit anyone's ability to mess with the money.
Satoshi clearly understood human weakness, which is no excuse..⚖️👮♂️💀😠
For the briefest moment yesterday it felt like the Nostr note had more traction than the tweet.
We're getting there.

Based!
Agreed. Submitting an unpopular PR just to start a flame war is unprofessional.
Then again, we're dealing with NFT bros. Stoking controversy is how they make their $$$
#Bitcoin
Peter Todd is literally a paid shill.

Just NFT Shitcoiners trying to ruin #Bitcoin again... 🙄
#Zapathon
