"@CunyRenaud @BitMEXResearch @hodlonaut Point is relay policy doesn't matter. It cant even be enforced when 99% of the network is enforcing it.

"@soloyopee @btcmackc I dont agree from the evidence I have seen and my understanding of Bitcoin as an economically incentivized network with a diminishing block subsidy. I see the reality of fee maximizing miners becoming more and more obvious"

"@soloyopee @btcmackc Yes we have established that opreturn shows evidence to the contrary so we have to find the differing variable which again are economic incentives. So when economic incentive shifted the sub sat filter was shown to be ineffective. Its very simple"

"@soloyopee @btcmackc Back in July I changed my Core node config to relay sub sat fees the next day I sent a tx for [---] s/vb it confirmed next block. I used no preferential peering or Slipstream. This tells me is Bitcoin is very efficient at bypassing attempted censorship. Just as it was designed"

"@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"

"@Zatoichi42 @DudeJLebowski Relay policy is made irrelevant by even 1% of nodes changing policy as sub sat summer clearly demonstrated. That is why governments can't use it as an attack vector"
