"Did we actually win the block size war — or did we lose?" Samson Mow asks the question most Bitcoiners won't. Fees as a filter, the jump to 4MB, and why Luke Dashjr may have been right about smaller blocks. The context the BIP 110 fight skips. 👇 Samson Mow on whether we actually won the block size war: "The Core people say the fees are the filter. But that misses the point — you're not looking at the entire network, and what's already happened. Yes, fees filter spam. You pay fees to transact, and a spammer pays fees too. But during the block size war, we changed the whole dynamic. We changed the unit economics — we increased the block size and decreased fee pressure. So we actually made it cheaper to spam the network. Only one person talked about decreasing the block size back then — Luke Dashjr. And I think he was right. So it begs the question: did we actually win the block size war, or did we lose? We had a net increase in effective block space, going to four megabytes — and the repercussions of that, I don't think we've really reasoned out. Maybe it was a mistake to go to four. Maybe we should have kept it at one, and left the settings of the network as they were." Samson Mow on The The Bitcoin Matrix Podcast ⚡️ #243

Matthew Kratter on why the spam war feels like a psyop: "A lot of these Core devs don't own much Bitcoin at all. They don't even run nodes. There's a misalignment of incentives. It's terrifying to see Bitcoin in the hands of devs who view it as just another software gig. You begin to feel like you're taking crazy pills — why am I arguing with master C programmers who suddenly don't know what spam is? It's a very strange time to be alive." Matthew R.

Bitcoin Mechanic on the state's blind spot: "The state is looking at Bitcoin like: I don't know how to control this thing. People are moving money around without permission. Someone just sent a million dollars from this address to that address — I don't know who address A was, I don't know who address B was, I couldn't stop the transaction. They paid 30 cents in fees, and now it's moving again, through a coin join. And it's just looking around like: who do I target? Who do I throw in jail? And there's no one they can target. If you want to do anything else with money — spend 20 cents on a pack of gum — they want to know about it, throw you in jail over it, investigate you. They're control freaks who want to enslave the whole population. But with Bitcoin, they just don't know who to actually target." Softfork Mechanic #BIP-110 on The The Bitcoin Matrix Podcast ⚡️ #283.

Luke Dashjr on what actually belongs on the Bitcoin blockchain: "Spam is anything the person who's getting it did not solicit, did not consent to. In the context of Bitcoin, that's any data that doesn't involve, in some way, the transfer of coins from one person to another. Everything else is just clogging the network and ruining the experience for everyone else. People who want to share JPEGs can do that. There are websites for it. There are even decentralized ways to do it, like BitTorrent. The only reason to do it the way they're doing it — forcing it on-chain — is to intentionally push it onto people who have not consented and explicitly do not want it."

Tom Luongo: "The British Have Been Running the Game for 300 Years" Tom Luongo delivers one of his most fired-up takes ever, laying out his theory that British political influence has been the hidden hand behind America's biggest turning points — from Woodrow Wilson's election in 1912 to the creation of the Federal Reserve, the income tax, and both World Wars. He argues that post-war gold resets funneled wealth back to the old powers, that Churchill deserves a serious historical reevaluation, and that the path forward isn't military — it's financial. His conclusion: you beat entrenched power by cutting off its money, and he believes that's exactly what figures like Scott Bessent are positioned to do. Whether you agree or not, this one will make you think.

"Is there even such a thing as 'spam' on Bitcoin?" Samson Mow cuts through the argument most Bitcoiners talk past. Native Bitcoin data vs. ordinals, why immutability is the thing being abused, and where the line between spam and not-spam actually sits. The definition the BIP 110 fight keeps dodging. Samson Mow on what actually counts as spam: "There's a simpler way to define spam: it's not an organic Bitcoin transaction — it's trying to do something else. A Bitcoin transaction is data, yes — but it's Bitcoin's native data. If you're sending someone Bitcoin, that's not spam. But a lot of what we're seeing now — ordinals and the like — is trying to embed data and images into Bitcoin to piggyback on its immutability. That's the delineation: this is spam, this is not."

Bitcoin is the best financial education anyone can buy & your ticket to entry is whatever you can afford to stack & it will change your life. Not just in a material way because I believe that once you understand Bitcoin & you start to realize that no matter how many sats you have that is going to lead to a dollar value that you may not have ever thought you could achieve. So from wherever you start, once you grok bitcoin you realize where you are going & when you realize where you are going you start to feel wealthy. You start to feel abundant. It's just a matter of time. The abundance is coming. The wealth is coming. It's just a matter of time. That is such a massive shift in your mindset that you begin to attract other positive things in your life. It's that mind-shift. It's the vibe you give off. Once you make that shift & you understand that bitcoin is going to create wealth & abundance for you, you start to attract wealth & abundance from all angles. It's a complete shift in your energy & what you attract. Humble_Hodl

I don't even pay attention to politics anymore. I just find it so wasteful & dysfunctional & stupid. Save it. I don't want to hear it. The only thing that I care about is sound money. Bitcoin is the soundest form of money we’ve ever had. Lawrence Lepard, "fix the money, fix the world"

Matthew Kratter on why the other side has no grenade: "We're just crazy enough to walk into the room and say: look, Bitcoin is money. This is so important to me that I've got a grenade here, and I'm willing to blow all of us up if you don't go along with us. And we don't have an opposition. No one has the hand grenade that says I want spam and CSAM on Bitcoin. If there were a group trying to push that through, I would URSF them in a second, because that's unacceptable. We're watching Bitcoin heal itself and fight back." Matthew R. Kratter #BIP-110 on The The Bitcoin Matrix Podcast ⚡️ #279.
