BIP-110 has graduated from being attacked by Tone Vays and Dan Held to now David Bailey himself.
They’re running out of generals to throw at us. It’s the “then the fight you” stage.
Bitcoin doesn't have a fixed supply because of magic software code. Nodes enforce the fixed supply (validating every transaction and block which must be consistent with it), create redundancy reducing fragility and provide permissionless access to the network. Study bitcoin!
Scammers and bad actors have been claiming BIP110 was "dead on arrival" or otherwise failed from the first day @dathon_ohm published it.
It was fake news then, and it's fake news now.
BIP110 has consensus and will still succeed if we hold the line.
"The 1% of users (if that) who align with BIP-110 will have destroyed their credibility"
-- David Bailey, founder of NAKA, the worst performing stock of the NASDAQ over last 12 months.
If BIP-110 fails, nothing will change in the immediate future, but I think we'll look back in, say, 10 years, 15 years or whatever, and realise that this was one of the opportunities that we collectively had to change course.
No, scammers/spammers are attacking Bitcoin; they are NOT bitcoiners.
No, Core is not right about anything (in this regard).
No compromise with attacks, period.
Data already has a proper parking spot: BitTorrent.
But they don't use it, because their goal isn't to publish data, it's to harm Bitcoin.
Everyone trying to use Bitcoin pays more for spam.
More bandwidth, more CPU time, more storage, etc.
There were no pictures until 2025 October.
Core30 added pictures.
BIP110 rejects that and removes them again.
BIP110 is not a content filter.
Spam filters are not content filters.
Bitcoin is not a content distribution system AT ALL.
ZERO content allowed.
BIP110 does not freeze coins.
Nothing about it is forever.
It does not cause chain splits (only anti-BIP110 can).
It is not censorship.
Stop listening to bad actors lying to you.
I have discovered a second post that was deleted from my BIP-110 thread on Delving Bitcoin. It was originally sent in reply to the message from user "neonrooks" here: https://t.co/TInZOa3paQ
Developers should avoid posting on this heavily manipulated forum website.
@roger__9000 If BIP110 fails, Bitcoin fails with it.
I am not interested in any CBDC, much less an unregulated CBDC pretending to be decentralised.
There's already plenty of scamcoins filling that role anyway.
All politics aside, the Jade is a very bad product, I was unable to get things to work consistently on it.
- Extremely fussy about USB cables and ports. Things fail for seemingly unrelated reasons until you get a USB cable it's happy with.
- Using a powered hub instead of connecting direct - same issue. Throws errors that look completely unrelated.
- I compiled the source code from scratch and it doesn't match any of the available hashes offered by Blockstream. It also doesn't say what algo they used to hash their downloadable binaries meaning I had to try all the obvious ones, not just SHA256. It's possible the build process is just not deterministic but it doesn't say anywhere whether that's the case or not. It obviously should be of course. Back then I was on good terms with @notgrubles and @adam3us and asked them for advice - neither responded.
- Proceeding and flashing what I compiled broke something further on the Jade making it now show up as two connected devices instead of one with only one being (inconsistently) usable again without any apparent reason.
There are perhaps perfectly good reasons for at least some of these issues but they are the kind of thing that gets ironed out in testing/QA in order to make the product usable that has obviously never been done.
