But the janitors are saying there is no such thing as litter!!!
To be clear, this was a statement from a younger core developer on a recent podcast who seems to have been one of the instigators of this ridiculous debate.
Wuille and Maxwell wouldn't have said there is no such thing as spam just because it cannot be defined deterministically.
The softer position of the spam-apologists is that it exists but will be tamed by fees, which is not a position based upon evidence given the amount of capital invested in shitcoins to date, and the intense historical pressure there has been for bitcoin to support spam as a serviceable market rather than maintaining hostility.
The distributed database on a Blockchain shitcoins only exist because bitcoin is hostile to them.
To hear so many so-called Bitcoiners, who want to be on the winning team but also the winning team has to do what they want, which always fails, to destroy the distinction between monetary and non-monetary transactions and just let the market sort it out.
Satoshi said "There are other things we can do if necessary"
But now Core Devs want to use that same quote out of context to suggest that there was never ever a plan to do anything other than let fees sort it out.
Bullshit!!!
Any Core developer or so-called Bitcoiner who denies the distinction monetary and non-monetary transactions, and therefore the existence of spam as a concept, should fork off, bow out, they are not Bitcoiners. Not because I said so, but because they don't understand bitcoin or want to change what it is against the will of everyone who has invested the 1000 hours to understand and invest in it, technically, financially, intellectually, reputationally, or in any other way.
