And Still flabbergastingly there is no explanation why op return was so grotesquely expanded for what God only knows. I’ve seem software conpanies eaten alive from the inside by developers running amok with whatever suits their nerdy fantasies which usually revolves around impressing their nerdy buddies all of whom are disconnected from real world business realities
The real world needs bitcoin electronic cash for consumer payments, institutional settlement, and state reserve currency. Meanwhile developers are busy getting their nerd jollies tinking with op return for god knows what. This state of affairs is exactly why so many software start up companies fail
I have often counseled younger software developers on my teams over the years to not overthink things…Finney/satoshi were successful by relying on their intuition and being able to quickly make compromises move forward and not look back… now we have these damn meddling kids tinkering with things that they didn’t creat and let’s be honest don’t really understand. I admire LukeD for simply trying to restore the sanity and stability of the base protocol. Basically put things back the way they were and and refocus on layer two payments and apps
@ProfessorBigz Fees work AND Filters work. Both are needed to fend off those who want to exploit and abuse bitcoin’s blockchain for arbitrary data storage
No she’s just an immature rogue developer indoctrinated with a bad case of selfish fight the patriarchy bs. I wouldn’t hire Gloria for basic corporate business app development. In fact Ive actually had to fire folks like this before they steared a project too far off course from original state business value proposition.
Over last 30 years I’ve witnessed software projects and even entire start up companies go down in flames because of one young rogue developer like this. They need to restore the 80 byte op return limit asap and take the PR commit keys away from this individual before more damage is done
