"@markjeffrey @NickSzabo4 The chain cant be "bloated" that's why we have a blocksize limit. Opreturn is useful because it doesnt increase the UTXO set. Prevent people from using opreturn and they will use fake pubkeys which is even worse for UTXOs. Its clear you do not have a strong grasp on this subject"
