They could work together. Luke submitted a PR to add the same inscriptions hack fix that Knots uses. Instead of merging the fix, they changed the definition of datacarriersize to turn it from a bug to a feature. Their words and actions made it clear they support spam on the blockchain. This makes sense considering they are financially incentivized by Citrea, Taproot Wizards, etc. They claim it's impossible to stop, and filters will have to be updated daily from a centralized server. The filter is simple, look for instructions in OP_RETURN that are being abused to embed data in code. It doesn't need to be updated daily. If all nodes were doing this (currently only Knots) and running sane default size limits (all current nodes except LibreRelay) the only way around would be miners using tricks like Slipstream. Core's argument ignores the fact that Slipstream and all sane miners have Terms of Service that prohibit illegal and questionable data submissions. This fixes 99.99% of the problem. It also sends a message to the companies building inscriptions garbage on Bitcoin to go do it on Ethereum, Solana or any other shitcoin. #Enshitcoinification Running #Knots #MBDA
