you can initiate multiple Bitcoin nodes from a single initial block download (IBD) by first syncing one node and then copying its data directory to other machines. This saves significant time and bandwidth, as the Initial Block Download (IBD) is a resource-intensive process.
Miners require nodes to replicate their blocks. Miners compete with other miners. When 2 miners solve a block at about the same time, they both put out their solutions into the blockchain. Whichever solution gets replicated the fastest forms the longest chain and wins.
Nodes need a lot of storage. It would be very expensive to spin up thousands of nodes. Economically prohibitive.
See for yourself.

Nash would probably not be in favor of centralized layer 2’s or Bitcoin banks that fractional reserves its customers deposits.
It degrades TU or completely erases it.
It’s exactly like fiat, it works good during good times, but during not ideal times, it degrades. Good money is supposed to be good all the time, not just when the economy is doing well.
Centralized LN, which is exactly the plan to scale bitcoin, spoke and hub LN(centralized) and Bitcoin Banks(centralized) takes the TU out of Bitcoin and degrades it to a NTU for 99% of the users. As most will be on layer 2’s or custodial “banks”
Of another party can cause loss of funds, freeze, or stop your from transferring your funds, you are not sovereign and you don’t have TU, or you only have it as long as the custodian allows it, the second they don’t, you have NTU, aka bad money.
This is why it’s important to discuss the saving in txn fees by increasing the blocksize/weight, as it allows for more players to gain TU in their money/savings, and the savings on txns might very well outpace the added storage cost to your node. Even tho you don’t need a node for TU, just a wallet and UTXO’s.

Why can @AntePurgatorio answer this question, it’s simple.
Instead he reverts to replying with,
“I can’t get a v30 node to act precisely the same as v29, so it must be broken”
even tho in practice you can still have it relay whatever you wish within consensus limits.
@AntePurgatorio You’re free to set datacarriersize to whatever you’d like.
Why does allowing multiple outs matter if the total aggregate size is still limited by whatever you set datacarriersize to?
@steverabinow Because I have no way to set my core client to behave as it did previously.
It's not even an option without patching and rebuilding it.
Yes, it was already valid, but Core made relaying it an unchangable default.
Mike Hearn, Gavin Andersen, Roger Ver, Jeff Garzik, Craig Wright, and now Luke Dashjr.
All people who thought they could control Bitcoin in some way.
All failed spectacularly.

All it does is make plebs feel like they “sent a message” and nothing more. You can change cores default op return back to whatever value you want, that’s how relay policy works. One single command in CLI and you can revert a core node op return to 40 or 0 or 21 or 83 bytes or whatever you want, as long as it’s within consensus it’s valid. If the fee is sufficient for the size it will be mined.
The BiP110 seeks to take freedom of choice away from every single node and miner to change op return limit, because the default core sets is just that, a default that is allowable and easy to change and the txns you make are still valid. It seeks to give this freedom of choice to one man, Luke instead of allowing every sovereign node and miner to set their own, core sets nothing but the default that you can change, but if BiP110 is successful that won’t be true anymore, meaning freedom is lessened for nodes and miners.
wtf do yall smoke bc I want some of it!
To the miners, you are sovereign, do what’s best for you! Greed is what makes Bitcoin and PoW.. work! Nodes are the same, we are all sovereign and get to decide what is in our own best interest. Bitcoin was designed so that everyone ends up doing “the same” Strategy and deviation is loss of profit, because of the incentives and how they are set up.
Don’t listen to idiots on X, they have no idea what is best for you, you do and we are all free, to the dismay of Luke Mechanic and the BiP110 tards who are authoritarian at heart and the mask came off as soon some ppl used bitcoin to make valid txns that they dislike, and then they became emotionally enraged because of it and their true colors are showing. They want take your freedom to set your own relay policy away from you, and hand it to Luke, one man. Bitcoin categorically rejects any type of leadership with the power of coercion, when it should only be the power of persuasion. We only have “leaders” in Bitcoin who got their on merit or social manipulation(Luke), and they have no power over sovereign nodes nor miners, but Luke wants to take your ability to set and tweek your own relay policy(changing the defaults set by core is currently allowed, BiP110 seeks to remove this freedom of choice from all sovereign users by making it consensus.
It is the single handed worst precedent we could ever set in Bitcoin to date. Please stop being dumb, for the sake for the future and the ability for each sovereign user to set their own relay policy. Stripping freedom of choice from nodes to change core default settings is.. plain retarded and why so many are pointing out so many of yall don’t understand the difference between relay policy each node and miner get to change core default values like op return size, it takes one single line in the CLI to revert your node back to 83 op return or whatever you want, but consensus is where you cannot change the values or it makes the txn or block invalid. Changing default relay policy is allowed and doesn’t make a txn invalid unless it breaks consensus rules.
What about someone who says it’s ok to marry a girl at 12? And thinks that society believes this is acceptable as a majority? What about someone who says porn is worse than murder? Someone who eats house cats? Is a Christian fundamentalist that’s lies and is is constantly making up defamations to confuse instead of teach? Someone who Doxxes all the devs at a bitcoin conference because he left his laptop open and unattended and had Bitcoin stolen?
Is that respectable behavior? That’s only a few of the hundred or thousands of actions by ONE man, knots developer Like Dashjr. I’m writing a book about him and how horrible of a person he is, scum of the earth, went to the dark side a long time ago.
I made a simple claim, you’re not addressing my simple claim. It’s it difficult. I’m not speaking to a time period, or even a specific implements knots or core, I’m just saying that it is possible, not that it’s useful for the scenario you describe because that’s something I was not addressing with my simple claim.
Ffs why is this so hard to understand..
