Softsimon from Mempool joins us to discuss Bitcoin fees, spam, fixing the filters, the Blocksize Wars, and much more!
Key Takeaways:
- Data transactions, such as JPEGs and token transfers, contribute to fee spikes in Bitcoin.
- High fees are necessary to price out spam and non-essential transactions.
- The debate between big blockers and small blockers centers around decentralization and user control in Bitcoin.
- Roger Ver's book promoting Bitcoin Cash as the true Bitcoin is seen as a failed attempt to gain support.
- New users should understand the history and context of the Bitcoin Cash fork. Bitcoin has experienced multiple forks due to disagreements and attempts to hijack the protocol.
- Bitcoin's resistance to change is a key feature that protects it from being easily manipulated.
- Mempool is working on transaction acceleration services to help users with stuck transactions.
- Transparency is important in the Bitcoin ecosystem, and Mempool aims to provide an open and auditable transaction acceleration service.
