The primary difference between a Bitcoin softfork vs hardfork, is their behaviour with regard to "do nothing" nodes. If a node does nothing, then it automatically rejects a hardfork. On the other hand, it automatically accepts a softfork. To accept a hardfork, you must upgrade your node. To reject a softfork, you must upgrade your node. (To accept a softfork, even if you are disinterested, you should still upgrade your node, to stay secure.)

OK, I think I get it now: UTXO set bloat is only a problem when it can be used to justify removing a decade-old filter, IBD is still fast and easy for people living in first world countries, and it's wrong to smear skilled developers, unless it's Luke and Jon Atack

Satoshi: "Luke, I will empower you to one end alone. To give back power to the plebs of Bitcoin and end the corruption that has crippled it. Do you accept this honor that I offer you?" Luke: "With all my heart, no." Satoshi: "That's why, Luke, it has to be you."

To be perfectly fair, I do find some value in Bitcoin Core innovation - just like in European technology

Are you even a Bitcoiner if you don't run your own node and participate in building your own blocks? Learn how to buy some hash and mine BIP-110 blocks: rentsomehash.com/

You're obviously not. Satoshi was a hundred times smarter than you. And he liked to keep a low profile. You're the exact opposite: a cerebral narcissist with a shitcoin agenda.
i'm not satoshi, but I was early in laser focus on the positive societal implications of cryptography, online privacy and electronic cash, hence my ~1992 onwards active interest in applied research on ecash, privacy tech on cypherpunks list which led to hashcash and other ideas.

Ouch 🤕
Taproot usage on Bitcoin 99% of taproot transactions since 2024 are dust. They are not financial transactions. This was not the expected behavior when we created taproot. Needs to be more widely acknowledged. Details in first comment. Thanks @OrangeSurfBTC for inspiration

"Seriously, bro? You must be really poor." "That's virtue signaling." "Just buy a larger drive." "A spinner? Lol, you need an SSD." "Just let Core fix the policy malincentive."

To me it's not even about the price of storage. It's just retarded to passively let shitcoiners degrade the network instead of bitchslapping them in the face and send them packing.

We went from: "Bitcoin mining is too centralized" To: "Bitcoin nodes are too centralized"

SENSATIONAL ≥1.3 TH/s FOR ONLY €199,00🔥 (incl. PSU & stand, BM1370, ~15 W/TH, ICE tower Noctua, open-source FW, made in Germany) The Nerdaxe Gamma is home mining without jet-engine noise – and without silly markups 🤭
