I am very excited to announce that solana:dog1viwbb2vWDpER5FrJ4YFG6gq6XuyFohUe9TXN65u just took its first step toward upgrading the Bitcoin network 🧵
Today, the solana:dog1viwbb2vWDpER5FrJ4YFG6gq6XuyFohUe9TXN65u Army forked Bitcoin Core's code repository and established its own open source project called Bitcoin solana:dog1viwbb2vWDpER5FrJ4YFG6gq6XuyFohUe9TXN65u Mode.
Bitcoin solana:dog1viwbb2vWDpER5FrJ4YFG6gq6XuyFohUe9TXN65u Mode is a new Bitcoin client designed for maximum freedom.
Bitcoin developers are now able to work together on GitHub and make code contributions to Bitcoin solana:dog1viwbb2vWDpER5FrJ4YFG6gq6XuyFohUe9TXN65u Mode.
Over the coming weeks, the first version of solana:dog1viwbb2vWDpER5FrJ4YFG6gq6XuyFohUe9TXN65u Mode will be implemented, which involves making the following changes:
1. The maximum standard transaction size will be increased from 400,000 WU to 3,900,000 WU. This will give everyone equal access to do "four meggers" while leaving a generous 100,000 WU of space for the coinbase transaction and block overhead.
2. The global dust limit will be lowered from 294-546 sats (depending on output type) to 1 sat. Ordinals inscriptions and Runes UTXOs are currently forced to carry hundreds of unnecessary sats to appease Bitcoin Core. This will remove the need for "padding" and unlock ~$25M of sats for the Ordinals and Runes ecosystem.
3. Add preferential peering so that solana:dog1viwbb2vWDpER5FrJ4YFG6gq6XuyFohUe9TXN65u Mode nodes can "talk" to each other. This feature will largely borrow from Libre Relay's existing implementation of preferential peering.
Once these changes have been implemented, the first version of solana:dog1viwbb2vWDpER5FrJ4YFG6gq6XuyFohUe9TXN65u Mode will be released and available for everyone to run on their Bitcoin node.
It's important to take a step back and understand why solana:dog1viwbb2vWDpER5FrJ4YFG6gq6XuyFohUe9TXN65u Mode is so important.
For the past two and a half years, the solana:dog1viwbb2vWDpER5FrJ4YFG6gq6XuyFohUe9TXN65u Army has been at war with the Bitcoin Knots community.
This was not a war the solana:dog1viwbb2vWDpER5FrJ4YFG6gq6XuyFohUe9TXN65u Army went looking for, but rather one we were forced to join when the Bitcoin Knots community vowed to purge all Runes and Ordinals from the Bitcoin blockchain.
This conflict ultimately reached its conclusion earlier this month when the Bitcoin Knots community forked the Bitcoin network via BIP-110 in an attempt to make Bitcoin less compatible with Runes and Ordinals activity.
The fork failed miserably and marked a massive victory for the solana:dog1viwbb2vWDpER5FrJ4YFG6gq6XuyFohUe9TXN65u Army. The Bitcoin Knots community has now retreated to its own tiny blockchain which is largely irrelevant to the broader Bitcoin ecosystem.
With that fight now in the rearview mirror, the solana:dog1viwbb2vWDpER5FrJ4YFG6gq6XuyFohUe9TXN65u Army can turn its attention toward the much bigger goal of permanently making the Bitcoin network more open and friendly to non-monetary use cases.
There has never been a better time for us to upgrade the Bitcoin network and push for these changes than now.
One of the largest obstacles still standing in the way of non-monetary activity on Bitcoin is Bitcoin Core, whose developers enforce a collection of arbitrarily restrictive "standardness rules" that effectively dictate how people are allowed to use the network.
solana:dog1viwbb2vWDpER5FrJ4YFG6gq6XuyFohUe9TXN65u Mode will challenge this gatekeeping.
By loosening several of these standardness rules, solana:dog1viwbb2vWDpER5FrJ4YFG6gq6XuyFohUe9TXN65u Mode will give users more freedom to interact with Bitcoin however they choose, without needing approval from a small group of developers.
It's unfortunate that things have reached this point. The ideal outcome would have been to work alongside Bitcoin Core to make Bitcoin more open, programmable, and welcoming to new use cases.
But many Core developers have shown little interest in that vision, and several have been openly hostile toward non-monetary activity on Bitcoin.
So it is time for the solana:dog1viwbb2vWDpER5FrJ4YFG6gq6XuyFohUe9TXN65u Army to take control of its own future and stop asking permission from people who would rather see us fail.
Bitcoin solana:dog1viwbb2vWDpER5FrJ4YFG6gq6XuyFohUe9TXN65u Mode is built around a very simple philosophical idea:
If someone pays for space in a Bitcoin block, they should be able to do whatever they want in that space without needing anyone else's approval.
Permissionlessness is one of Bitcoin's core principles and it is worth defending.
Bitcoin is stronger, more secure, and more resilient when it supports a thriving economy of non-monetary use cases including DeFi, DEXs, fungible tokens, non-fungible tokens, and entirely new applications that have not yet been invented.
solana:dog1viwbb2vWDpER5FrJ4YFG6gq6XuyFohUe9TXN65u Mode is being built specifically to give these use cases the freedom, flexibility, and protection they need to grow and to help usher in a new era of Bitcoin innovation and programmability.

If you watch my vids, you saw this one early. $DOG one of the strongest memes rn, could end up being one of the top of the cycle. It's now up 100%

I plan to buy more on confirmed pullbacks in Oct. Midterms in Nov can give another pullback gift
A lot of people on here go back and forth on their stance. My outlook has been consistent for years. The moment I tweeted we bottomed at 15.8 k, I have remained bullish.
Not once have I considered this Bitcoin correction a bear market or a new cycle.
I am ok to be publicly wrong, which is why I have been firm with my conclusion until I am invalidated.
Until then, cheers to all my fellow bulls!

Let’s put the demand on the record. 👀🔥
I am very excited to announce the launch of a new open source Bitcoin client called Bitcoin $DOG Mode.
Bitcoin Core and Bitcoin Knots have spent years enforcing rules that Bitcoin itself does not have.
A transaction can be fully valid under consensus and still be blocked from normal relay because it is “non-standard”. This has resulted in the creation of a private “black market” for Bitcoin transactions where insiders with connections to miners get do things that ordinary Bitcoin users cannot.
The $DOG Army has already gotten around this system twice.
First we went directly to miners to execute the largest transaction in Bitcoin’s history because Bitcoin Core would not relay it. Then we did it again for the largest airdrop in Bitcoin’s history because of Core’s arbitrary 83-byte OP_RETURN limit.
Around the same time, the Runes Protocol had grown so popular that memecoin activity accounted for the majority of transactions on the Bitcoin network. Many of these transactions also went directly to miners to bypass Core’s minimum relay fee.
Core realized it had been outmaneuvered and in response they released Core v30 which removed the OP_RETURN limit and lowered the default minimum relay fee to 0.1 sat/vB.
This revealed a clear pattern. The $DOG Army could route our “non-standard” transactions around Core, miners would accept them, and then Core was eventually forced to give in.
The $DOG Army is done asking for permission. It is time to remove even more of these frivolous restrictions.
That is why we are starting an open source initiative to develop our own Bitcoin client called $DOG Mode.
When using Bitcoin in $DOG Mode:
1. The maximum standard transaction size will be increased from 400,000 WU to 3,900,000 WU. This will give everyone equal access to do “four meggers” while leaving a generous 100,000 WU of space for the coinbase transaction and block overhead.
2. The global dust limit will be lowered from 294-546 sats (depending on output type) to 1 sat. Ordinals inscriptions and Runes UTXOs are currently forced to carry hundreds of unnecessary sats to appease Bitcoin Core. This will remove the need for “padding” and effectively airdrop ~$25M in locked up sats back to the Ordinals and Runes ecosystem.
Unlike Bitcoin Knots, which deviates significantly from Bitcoin Core and introduces substantial risk to node runners, Bitcoin $DOG Mode aims to only change the absolute minimum code necessary to remove these two restrictions.
And unlike BIP-110, which attempts to change Bitcoin consensus through a network fork, $DOG Mode operates entirely within Bitcoin’s existing consensus rules and does not require a fork.
This ensures that $DOG Mode can be successful from day one.
Over time the economic incentives will drive $DOG Mode’s adoption and force Bitcoin Core to stop gatekeeping and allow these completely valid transactions. The result will be a more open, fair, and transparent Bitcoin network.
If you are a Bitcoin developer who is interested in contributing to the initial $DOG Mode release, please reach out to me.
If you are a Bitcoin miner who is interested in increasing your revenue by adding support for $DOG Mode transactions, please reach out to me.
If you are a normal Bitcoin user who wants to support $DOG Mode quote post this with: “I will run Bitcoin in $DOG Mode”
If I could imagine the dream altcoin for the cycle, it would be on Bitcoin, and it would be the #1 coin on Bitcoin besides BTC itself
It would be decentralized and fairly distributed like BTC
It would be secure like BTC
It would consist of a community that out-engages most altcoin communities on X
It would not have gone through a bull market yet
It’s $DOG 🧐
Boson Masterplan Part VI is out!
Boson is the decentralized commerce layer of the Intelligent Economy, verifiably fair exchange of any RWA between any agent (human or AI)
A post-human agent economy needs deterministic settlement + real-world commitments.
