Most of these transactions are pure junk to scam the people in the name of valid transactions.
Either filters need to be fixed (to reduce the spam not to fix it) or blocksize needs to be reduced or maybe we need both.
CTV and other upgrades can wait until this problem gets solved/mitigated.

What are the odds that core devs screw up again with something but way more significant than this?
Not fixing datacarrier size was the major red flag. Majority of bitcoiners decided to be complacent with that and now core devs broke BIP85 for no reason. Nobody asked for this change. Not sure when bitcoiners will realize that this is one of the major attack vectors to #bitcoin. There are almost no influencers who criticize #bitcoin core as much as they deserve to be criticized.
If you are pleb like myself (who don't know how to code) and if you want to show your frustration, I would strongly run my own node with Knots instead of original #bitcoin core. I get that some of the changes you can't prevent it from implementing it because knots
is not built from scratch but it would likely help us to get rid of some of these incompetent (& compromised) core devs.
If we really want to see #bitcoin as a unit of account, I don't see how we can get there with the current state of #bitcoin core. I am not sure if it's feasible or not but it's a high time that @npub10pe…n34f (cc @npub1qny…95gx) and other open source funding organizations MUST stop funding core and maybe provide more funding to knots or people/entities who are willing to create new bitcoin client from scratch.

This is going to be one of the biggest crypto scams and I think it will likely slow the #bitcoin adoption.
Red flags can be seen in plain sight but when you are living under #MAGA cult, it's hard to see that.

I think we may get to the point where core devs tyranny goes way out of control and bitcoiners will have to seriously think about (right from the scratch) implementation of the #bitcoin protocol.
I think @npub1lh2…a9nk knows that it's almost impossible to create brand new implementations right from the scratch by one dev but I hope #bitcoin gets more and more devs with Austrian economics mindset than Neo Keynesian mindset and maybe this may become possible in the future.
IT SEEMS LIKE BITCOIN CORE IS GRADUALLY BECOMING SINGLE POINT OF FAILURE.

I remember the time when @npub1qtv…7dze launched and a lot of spam apologists kept saying that the mining business is hyper competitive and nobody would exclude arb data (aka spam) in their mining block since it would hurt them financially without understanding the difference between TIDES payout and FPPS payout.
Since miners are starting to realize how they have been looted by FPPS payout for years, I think more and more miners will switch their mining pool and send their hash to @npub1qtv…7dze which would also help reduce the spam . The chart is clearly indicating that.
The only reason why I am so optimistic about #bitcoin is because whenever #bitcoin gets attacked by some bad actors, some of the bitcoiners (with super low time preference) do everything to make sure #bitcoin survives. I think it's just a start for @npub1qtv…7dze but they are a perfect example of low time preference behavior.
Would love to see @npub1qtv…7dze destroying more and more mining pool centralization in the future.

DO THIS BEFORE IT'S TOO LATE.
Incentives have already been misaligned (especially when it comes to funding core devs) and it's likely that bitcoin core development is going to get worse before everyone realizes that some of the core devs have already been compromised.
It would be nice to see more support for knots devs than core devs.

I checked mempool several times today and almost all of the time, I found mempool filled with garbage data (to scam the people).
If these blocks have been filled with garbage most of the time then why do we need 4MB blocks?
Why are Bitcoiners talking about further upgrades? Instead it would be WISE to talk about reducing the blocksize limit since the free market has been trying to tell us that we don't need 4MB blocks. It's being misused by attackers and spammers.
Reducing the blocksize will probably do following things: -
1) Keep the cost of running nodes very low (hence it helps with decentralization)
2) It promotes scalability in layers (i.e. L2, L3 etc) instead of on chain scaling.
What are the real risks by reducing block size? Except some scammers can't scam the people easily (but I believe that's a good thing)
I think #bitcoin thrives more with conservatism than progressivism.

I have met some people on X & In Real Life (IRL) and they still seemed to be confused with this whole spamming issue on #bitcoin network.
I don't have much programming knowledge but after going through so many resources related to spam issue, here is my attempt to answer some of their questions in very simple language.
Feel free to share with other plebs if you like it.
https://m.primal.net/IArw.jpg
1> How are fees calculated for transactions on the Bitcoin network?
Fees are calculated based on the amount of data in a transaction, not the amount of #bitcoin being moved. Each byte of data in a transaction requires a certain fee to be included in a block.
2> What is arbitrary data and why would it be considered spam?
Arbitrary data, or "arb data," refers to data that is not directly related to a #bitcoin transaction. When the fees for including this data are higher than the value being moved, it doesn't make economic sense and is likely spam.
Example: Imagine someone sending a bitcoin transaction with a 1 KB message attached, paying a $10 fee to do so, while only moving $1 worth of bitcoin. This would be considered arbitrary data and spam.
3> How can you disincentivize the insertion of arbitrary data (spam) into the Bitcoin network?
You can disincentivize arbitrary data insertion by implementing filters in your #bitcoin node. These filters can stop relaying transactions that contain unnecessary data (aka spam).
4> How can you disincentivize the insertion of arbitrary data (spam) into the #bitcoin network AS A MINER?
Miner(s) can disincentivize this behavior by sending your hash power to @ocean_mining
since they are the only single mining pool who let miners choose multiple templates. They charge minimal to no fee if you decide to mine with them with spam/data free template(s).
https://m.primal.net/IAry.jpg
https://m.primal.net/IArz.jpg
https://m.primal.net/IAsA.jpg
https://m.primal.net/IAsB.jpg
5>How can I apply filters in my #bitcoin node?
You need to run Bitcoin Knots on your computer instead of Bitcoin Core. Knots has all the required filters you need to stop spam relaying through your node.
6>What are the types of spam on the #bitcoin network?
There are several types of spam like stamps, inscriptions & runes.
Bitcoin Knots default settings only filter stamps and inscriptions.
7> How can I filter runes from my #bitcoin node?
You need to set datacarriersize = 0 in your Bitcoin Knots if you want to prevent runes relaying from your node to other nodes.
8>Why can't you completely fix the problem of spam, but only reduce it?
Spam cannot be completely fixed because it follows all the protocol rules, similar to email spam. However, As I mentioned before, it can be reduced by running Bitcoin Knots instead of #bitcoin core and sending your hash power to @npub1qtv…7dze
Example: Just like email spam filters can catch most spam but not all, Bitcoin filters can reduce spam but not eliminate it entirely.
9> What is Ordinal Protocol?
Ordinal is just protocol which gives ARBITRARY number to the inscriptions, or any other spam inserted into the mined block. Ordinal doesn’t exist on the bitcoin blockchain. In short, it’s just ARBITRARY numbering system for inscriptions and other spams (i.e. runes) which lives outside of the #bitcoin blockchain and it has nothing do with #bitcoin.
In fact, it also affects the fungibility and privacy feature of the #bitcoin (in a bad way).
10> What is the difference between Filtering and Censoring?
Filtering is a node's individual choice to reject certain transactions from relaying based on its mempool policy. Censoring, on the other hand, is the network-wide suppression of transactions enforced by a consensus.
For example, Best Buy not allowing someone to use their AMEX credit card but with allowing him to use MasterCard credit card is filtering. Best Buy allowing some people to shop but not others is censoring. - @npub1f7p…vg6q
11> What is the difference between a policy change and a consensus change?
A policy change, such as adjusting filters, is an individual #bitcoin node's decision and does not affect the overall Bitcoin consensus rules. A consensus change, such as altering the Blocksize limit, requires agreement from all nodes and can split the network if not universally adopted.
12> How does spam affect the cost of running your own node?
Spam transactions increase the size of the blockchain and the UTXO set, requiring more storage space and processing power to run a full #bitcoin node. This increases the cost of running a node, as operators need to invest in larger hard drives and more powerful hardware.
13> How does spam affect the cost and time of performing an Initial Block Download (IBD) on your own node?
Spam transactions increase the size of the blockchain, which means that new nodes performing an IBD will need to download and process more data. This increases both the time and bandwidth costs of the IBD process, making it more difficult for users in regions with slower internet speeds or limited bandwidth to participate in the network.
Think about those plebs who live in a places where they don't have good internet speed and can't afford Starlink subscription.
14> Can spam be used to attack the Bitcoin network?
Yes, spam can be used as a form of attack on the #Bitcoin network. By flooding the network with a large number of spam transactions, attackers can attempt to overload nodes, increase transaction fees, and degrade the user experience. Such attacks can be motivated by a desire to disrupt the network, discredit #Bitcoin, or promote alternative cryptocurrencies (aka scam).
15> How does spam impact the decentralization of the #Bitcoin network?
Spam can impact the decentralization of the Bitcoin network by increasing the cost of running a full node. As the blockchain grows larger due to spam transactions, the storage and bandwidth requirements for running a node increase. This can make it more difficult for individuals to participate in the network, potentially leading to a concentration of node operation among those with greater resources.
16> What if spammers or someone who is neutral on the whole spam war tell you that filtering does not work and spam will eventually relay through nodes who are running #bitcoin core instead of @BitcoinKnots
and gets included in the mined block & you will eventually end up storing those worthless jpegs on your node?
You can always tell them that spam can't be fixed but it can always be reduced by the ways I explained earlier.
You may have seen that some spammers are approaching directly to some mining pools to include their transactions. This would be called Out of Band Payments (OOB). If filtering did not work as it intended then they would not have gone directly to mining pools to include their transaction. This is the perfect example that shows filtering works and disincentivizes this behavior.
17> Please search Marathon's slipstream service. It's OOB services for those who want to add any spam into #bitcoin blockchain.
Marathon is one of the biggest bad actors in #bitcoin mining pools community. Since they started advertising OOB services, you can easily identify who are bad actors and who are not.
This would not have been possible without applying filters on the node. I am hoping to find out more bad actors in the #bitcoin community in the future so, in case if we get into state coordinated attack, it would be easy to identify who can coordinate with state(s) to damage the #bitcoin network.
18> Not to mention whenever you post something about filtering spam, all pro spam community (who are probably scamming people into buying "rare sats") will attack you for posting in favor of filters.
If filters were ineffective then these people wouldn't be attacking you so, whoever is not very knowledgeable on the spam issue, PLEASE DO NOT FALL FOR THE PSYOP WHICH IS "THERE IS NOTHING YOU CAN DO ABOUT SPAM".
19> There are some things in the life that you can't completely fix it but you can always reduce it and sometimes it makes total sense to reduce it instead of not doing anything about it.
#Bitcoin teaches you exactly the same thing.
What makes #bitcoin antifragile?
Bitcoin is antifragile because its participants actively defend the network against attacks and adapt to new challenges. This is demonstrated by the way Bitcoiners have responded to any attacks in the past, implementing filters and policies to mitigate their impact.
20> I hope you find this post very informative and please share with other plebs who are not well aware about the spam and please ask them to run #bitcoin knots instead of #bitcoin core on their node.

All @npub126n…e9ll node runners,
If you want to FILTER (aka stop relaying) runes for your node, there is some tweak in start9 OS that you should be aware about.
You need to disable Datacarrier instead of setting up Datacarrier size = 0. Start9 won't let you select 0 for datacarriersize but disabling datacarriersize would do exact same thing as setting your datacarriersize = 0.
https://m.primal.net/HyXQ.jpg
There are some nuances when it comes to runes and inscriptions. Check this tweet from Jason Hughes. He tried to explain it in simple language.
https://m.primal.net/HyXT.jpg
ALWAYS REMEMBER THAT ADJUSTING THIS DATA CARRIER SIZE IS NOT CENSORING, IT'S FILTERING. IT TRULY MAKES YOU SELF-SOVEREIGN WHEN IT COMES RUNNING YOUR OWN NODE.
LAST BUT NOT LEAST, please run #bitcoin knots on your node instead of original #bitcoin core to REDUCE spam and point your hash to Ocean mining pool.
Please share this with your other Start9 node runners especially to those who doesn't support any kind of arb data (sorry SPAM...oh sorry SCAM) on #bitcoin network.

If any of the miners (not the mining pool) want to show their support for the anti spam movement, I would suggest sending your hash to Ocean for the halving block.
It will send STRONG message to other mining pools that not all miners are GREEDY miners but some of them are actually ethical miners or miners with low time preference.
Please spread this message as much as you can to make sure it reaches out to the maximum number of miners in Nostr community.

Sometimes I think that #bitcoin is not an innovation but it's discovery and that's what freaks out a lot of people.
For this same reason, we have to be very careful when some #bitcoin devs are taking #bitcoin in the wrong direction. (i.e. normalizing SPAMS, make layer 1 accessible for everyone (not anyone))
People should know that #bitcoin is the last chance to save humanity from slavery so, when someone attacks Bitcoin (aka taking Bitcoin development in the wrong direction), it's our responsibility to be as toxic as possible and call them out.
What we are doing with SHITCOIN magazine, should have been done way before then spam wouldn't have gone this far.

Spam is flooding Bitcoin with useless transactions. This clogs the network, makes fees expensive, and pushes real payments out. Spam wastes resources and harms #Bitcoin 's usefulness as money.
https://m.primal.net/Hcuc.jpg
Spammers say "spam is subjective" and "a valid transaction is valid." But spam has clear traits: it wastes space inefficiently and exploits #Bitcoin functions in malicious ways. High fees also don't justify spam, since demand should drive fees up, not attacks.
Spammers claim #Bitcoin can thrive with greedy miners only caring about money. But miners need Bitcoin to stay useful long-term to profit. If spam ruins Bitcoin's utility as money, that hurts miners too. Letting spam dominate blocks devalues #Bitcoin.
https://m.primal.net/Hcud.jpg
Some say you can't fight spam, but that's false. Bitcoin users have coordinated to fight spam before. Updating filters and getting miners on board sends a message about undesirable activity.
Making payments cheaper doesn't justify spam either. Cheaper fees reduce miner income, same as spam filters. But efficiency improves network value, benefiting miners long run. Spam to push scaling changes also dangerously rushes upgrades without proper testing.
"Satoshi embedded data on-chain, so spam is allowed." But Satoshi didn't bloat or exploit #Bitcoin . Reasonable data inclusion doesn't equal endorsing spam attacks on the network. What matters is intent and responsible use of resources.
"High fees will stop spam eventually." No - spammers currently pay the highest fees. They'll keep raising budgets to clog the chain. Real demand should drive fee prices, not attacks. Relying solely on pricing spam out fails to address the root problem.
"Everything is good for #Bitcoin." Not true - #Bitcoin has flaws and vulnerabilities like any system. Attacks can impair functionality. Defenses are needed to protect network reliability and user experience. This requires proactive effort from Bitcoiners.
You can fight spam by running updated node software (i.e. #BitcoinKnots or Ordirespector) , setting policies against spammy transaction types, asking developers for better defaults and UI controls, pointing hash rate at filtered mining pools like OCEAN MINING and staying vocal about protecting #Bitcoin .
#Bitcoin once had strict anti-spam rules that got relaxed over time. Spam isn't new - previous incidents led to things like Blockchain DNS and Counterparty flooding the network. But coordinated action reined these in. With motivation, spam can be mitigated again.

Since February 2023, #bitcoin has been going through (I would say at least an social attack) and it seems like #bitcoiners are not resisting enough against this attack since there is a narrative being pushed to a lot of #bitcoiners that "THERE IS NOTHING YOU CAN REALLY DO TO STOP THIS ATTACK".
This whole narrative is a PSYOP. DO NOT FALL FOR IT

Filters will not completely stop arb data but will definitely disincentivize this behavior.
Not sure why people don't get it.
Please read the difference between policy change vs consensus change.
People just directly jump to the consensus change without even looking into policy change.
Apply filtering is policy change not consensus change.
"Filtering" and "Censoring" are whole different thing in this case. Don't mix them up.
Always try to run #Bitcoin Knots or anti-filter version of #bitcoin core node.
"YOU CAN'T DO ANYTHING" IS A PSYOP.

Canadians still think that Conservatives will fix the housing crisis. They have no incentives to fix the housing market when you know half of conservatives are landlords but I guess let conservative win the next election and let people realize that politics, regulations and law don't change anything but incentives do.
As @npub1s05…eyhe said, you can't fix current system by staying in the current system. You need to opt out of this current system by studying and investing in #bitcoin.
People need to stop relying on politicians, industrialists, crony capitalists and they have to take their own responsibility by becoming their own bank and by separating money from the state. That's the only solution and the 2 party system is doomed to fail.

If someone doesn't want to read "The Bitcoin Standard" book then which book would you recommend to that person?
Most of the people don't like reading books. In that case, what resources would you recommend to them so, they can start living on #bitcoin standard?

@npub1gdu…6nak explained really well how fiat ruined the quality of soul in his book "The Fiat Standard".
Everything degrades in fiat clown world.

I have some close friends and they are in their early 30s. They will probably have kids in the next 2-3 years and they don't own a home yet (but very desperate to buy a home if prices drop)and if you were to orangepill them, how would you go about it?
Would you advise them to invest all their savings into #Bitcoin instead of investing their savings into their first house and once their stack grows to certain amount , they can buy home with that stack?
Any opinion on this would be very helpful. I have a lot of friends who are in a similar situation.

"The path to financial success under the fiat standard lies in acquiring hard assets. Financing these acquisitions with debt is even more profitable. Not only is inflation likely to devalue the loan for the asset more than it devalues the asset, but as the lender and borrower are partaking in fiat mining, there is enough benefit in the mining seigniorage to make the purchase cheaper for the borrower. The most profitable route, however, comes from being able to issue fiat and get others into debt. Among the most effective ways to issue debt is to build a business that pivots to providing banking services to its customers, which explains why so many businesses in so many fields offer credit products to their customers."

It's impossible to get wealthy in fiat clown world without taking debt. Fiat leads you to the modern day debt slavery.
#Bitcoin is the only way out of debt slavery
"The Fiat Standard" by @npub1gdu…6nak explains this really well.

Does anyone follow this account on X?
Some people would call this guy conspiracy theorist but some of the stuff he posted seems to be pretty legit.
Not sure if someone like @npub1s5y…6q7z or @npub1sg6…f63m or @npub1cn4…3vle or @npub1s05…eyhe or @npub1a2c…w83a can request this person to join Nostr.
I think he will make more money by zaps than X.
It feels like he is hard core bitcoiner but I could be wrong.
