if nodes don’t control the network, then how does the network remain decentralized? #asknostr

For anyone in opposition or on the fence about 110, if you cannot point to how 110’s tighter limits inhibit your use of the network, then perhaps you don’t have a principled reason to oppose it. Dare I say, 110 probably better serves your interests.

the principles of bitcoin’s security remain this particular wallet had a particular vulnerability now people are aware and learned i know it sucks beyond belief, im sick. but how many people died along the oregon trail? we have to keep marching onward in their honor

Regarding BIP110: If your argument depends on “how” “who” “what” or “when” while ignoring “why,” you’re doing battle against a strawman.

Bitcoin is a “why” before a “what.” Telos informs its technicals. Function has primacy. Purpose cannot be divorced from the act of running Bitcoin software.

yeah, most definately

baffles the mind the things that must be said today

Why I’m Runnint BIP 110.

my primal has been glitchy and slow. i wouldn’t have been surprised if it messed up. keep saying what you gotta say. people are listening 🫡

my primal has been glitchy and slow. i wasn’t going to be surprised if it didn’t work. i should have just found a note lol if you keep having things to say, say them. people are listening 🫡

👍

Why would anyone want a non-110 block? 110 blocks have better specs. What does a non-110 block do better than a 110 block? #asknostr

ok 2021

For the people who don't like conflict and the BIP110 war, just know it is necessary. It's a gift to both sides, no matter who comes out on top. If you don't test your ideas against proof of work and put them in the fire, you have no fucking clue what they are really made of.

From my view and participation in BIP110 dialog, it seems like all the tension is related to people processing the seeming paradox of a dynamic relation producing immutabley stable effects consensus is alive, it can change or adapt every block but we say 21M is fixed it’s fixed insofar as it is locked by incentives and self interest we participate with the network with action: running nodes, mining, transacting, hodling we feed it our self interest, and the consensus rules that emerge are the collective good of the network. how people act within consensus is “free market” and how people set consensus is “free market” both are good and necessary people doing valid things now dont like the idea of those things not being consensus in the future. other people think current consensus doesn’t serve them well and want different things to be consensus in the future neither is “bad” for the process the consensus rules remain or change by the people voluntarily running software that serves their self interest, as expressed by the main chain. i run 110 cause i think it serves my interests best. and thats ok if others don’t agree. all we have to agree on is the main chain is always right if it expresses something different than you think is best, it’s right and ur wrong, and that’s ok. it came up with a better answer for the collective good you could. i guess all im trying to say is it’s ok to be passionately opposed to others self interest, if u understand how bitcoin is processesing everyone’s self interest to produce a collective good, you don’t have to be scared or fearful of the output. 110 will either change consensus rules or it won’t. either case, bitcoin is doing what bitcoin does, it’s not ded, and there is no need to cry cause it does what it can only do. it’s stupid to say people advocating for their self interest is going to destroy bitcoin it’s stupid to say any change is going to kill bitcoin the censorship arguments are preformative contradictions the “what’s spam?” “what’s monetary?” “what’s arbitrary?”questions are answered by the protocol itself the free market is action is a domain and a establishes the boundary of the domain these things are not contradictions, even if they “seem” paradoxical

#bitcoin ‘s consensus is an expression of collective self-interest. I think not understanding that dynamic relation is the principled root cause of all #BIP110 contention.
