Thank you for revealing yourself, leech. Unfollowed.

There is no slope, we're already there. I ran a cheap Raspberry pie node in 2022. That same node is bricked and is obselete. I will not wait until my Start9 node becomes obselete too, running knots.

Excuse the guy for speaking up about an existential threat for the very thing he's using to save for his future and the future of his family. Pay attention, this op_limit issue can make it too expensive for normal people to run nodes. Without these nodes bitcoin is no longer decentralized, and it can be co-opted to become a proof of stake network - change the code - that no longer serves you and protect your purchasing power.

They no longer work due to the inscriptions hack and the utxo set bloat. Stronger more expensive node software is required to run nodes now. Imagine how difficult and expensive it will be when the op_return limit is lifted. Plebs will no longer afford running nodes similar to etheriom and other shit coins. Last thing we want is to become proof of stake or fiat, but that's what will happen if we give up on running our own nodes.

It does have an effect on our ability to run nodes. We used to be able to use cheap raspberry pie to run nodes, they no longer work because of the spam on the network bloating the utxo set. Now we must purchase more expensive node hardware to run it. Next up blow open the op_return data carrier limit.. And we will have to purchase even stronger node hardware or become obselete. Bitcoin essentially becomes impossible to verify and defend by the plebs. We leave node running to corpprations and miners who care only about short term profits. Byebye to the 21millions cap eventually, and we're back to the fiat system, bitcoin is dead.

It could be that a bunch of start deliveries were made and people connected immediately? Start9 did say that this is happening and they're out of stock for most of their devices.

I had no idea I was following a spammer and a hardcore 30 supporter, thanks for the heads up , I unfollowed him immediately. These parasites infiltrated the space in the past 2 years, but starting showing their true colors recently. I must purge my follow list.
