Fighting spam ( read jpegs and ordinals) is like American healthcare .. here is the problem ..here is the pill ..
The real root cause is L2s .. if you are processing everything through lightning..then the fees at layer 1 gets small enough for rats and cats .. I mean their pics ๐ญ๐
So ..people riding moral high grounds of #lightning need to understand that #Ordinals are their creation ..
Layer2s are as big perversion as the NFTs ..

To some extent, but I think its much more because of the witness discount. That's basically subsidizing spam.
Ya ..but segwit didn't just fix the txn malleability.. is it that ?? ..it opened a whole new universe of lightning ..
Why it is bad - cuz we don't want cheaper txn fees on main net .. it should be expensive as hell .. to support miners after block subsidy is over .. the point is ..no one wants to buy coffee with Bitcoin .. people want to transact billions with Bitcoin
The discount isn't necessary. The fixes can stay without it. It has to be removed, or bitcoin economics won't work in the long run.
Nailed it .. remove discount.. see if the txn fees bumps up a bit .. if it goes up ... Jpegs would automatically stop ..no need for stupid filters which anyway don't work
It doesn't matter if they don't work. Its about sovereignty. Bitcoin isn't about giving away control. Bitcoin isn't about submission to an authority. Bitcoin isn't about following the crowd. Bitcoin is a repudiation of the retardation of fiat world, in which people fail to take ownership, fail to defy illegitimate authority, and fail to be thinking individuals. And more. Fuck whether the filter works. Totally irrelevant.
