"@Beautyon_ No man none of the L2 rollup things rely on OP_RETURN; they can always shove data in the witness Upping the limit was just a dumb (but benign) misallocation of social capital on Core's part"

"@dallairedemers To be clear - the X BTC you would be sending me would be on the same network as a hypothetical PQC fork (even if CRQC never comes to pass - the condition under which I collect) since it would be implemented as a soft-fork (i.e. backwards compatible change)"

"The troublesome thing here is that I think most bitcoin investors buy bitcoin with the implicit expectation that this kind of thing will _just work_ or they're not even aware of the outstanding problem. Is bitcoin really all that special for the world if it can only be interfaced with through a couple of third parties I don't think most people would think so but they're never really given a disclaimer on the current state of scaling so the question doesn't occur to them. I don't think we've made good on the promise yet"

"Sad but true A lack of covenant functionality exacerbates this situation in the long term - in the short term even if the perfect self-custodial UX existed people wouldn't use it. Engineers should still be building for the long term"

"@WolfgangLohmann This is a false dichotomy. So far "Lx" solutions on bitcoin are not enough to solve trust minimized value storage for most people"

"I regret to inform you that bitcoin has not yet solved the scaling problem in an ideologically coherent way (some will say scaling is solved essentially by custodians -- trusted third parties -- though they won't use that term. But that in the limit defeats the point of bitcoin) would be a good start Another good start would be a serious evaluation of the _actual_ trade-offs associated with larger block size (started very casually here Almost everyone serious knows this innately even if they aren't saying it. It's just easier to talk about less consequential things"

"@stephanlivera Yeah I deleted the second part of the tweet where I talk about how demand for self-custody is subject to rapid phase changes in light of something like a 6102. Definitely agreed that basically no one cares right now though"

"@AJ__1337 @stephanlivera So basically the entire bitcoin supply then becomes hyper concentrated Doesn't make much sense. I think a frog-boil speed regs a la Bank Secrecy Act will be taken up by most people no problem. Then one day you'll need ID to spend bitcoin and wonder what happened"

"@Bryan10309 Oh I don't know a single withdrawal and spend txn per month (2 txn/mo) for more than XXX% of Americans would be a good start. Need a 10x scaling solution to get to 27%"
