Blocksize Warriors and Shitcoin Trolls are putting a great deal of support and promoting the use of Bitcoin as a public file storage system. They think that they will drive users to their garbage and/or force the Bitcoin community to give them bigger and/or faster blocks.
But it's not gonna matter:
-
Miners don't care, full blocks means more fees.
-
Hosted Lightning services like Wallet of Satoshi don't care, they already bulk open channels and aggregate user funds in their custodial wallets to manage channel capacity and connectivity.
-
Semi-self-custody LN services like Breez and Phoenix don't care, they already use zero conf channels to open immediately operational channels to their users because the users can't double spend on them anyway, when the funds arrive via LN.
-
Most bitcoiners realise that LN is the most important area of the Bitcoin ecosystem right now, and congested blocks don't substantially impact on the network for established operators who provide the core connectivity of the network.
Driving people away from on-chain transactions is not a bad thing for Bitcoin.
The UX is awful anyway.
Full RBF means that zero conf on-chain e-commerce apps are no longer a good idea for the merchants and market operators.
The big money in bitcoin right now is LN, and the ordinals are competing with ETH/AVA/SOL/Polkadot/Cosmos. The LN providers will be quite capable of outbidding the jpeg spammers, the miners get more profit, reduce their rate of selling pressure, and miners know what side their bread is buttered.
The general population of full node runners help reduce the chances of a hard fork splitting the chain, but the miners really are the arbiters of chain content. They will choose the block with the biggest fees. If NFT bros spam up the chain with worthless bits the LN operators will just raise their fee rates and leave a lot less room for the spam to be mined on.
If any of these fools think they are gonna somehow coerce bitcoin into their vision or drive people away from bitcoin, they are mistaken. Blocks full of transactions means less miner selling pressure. Number Go Up means more DCA bros coming on board and accelerating the saving instrument use case.
Let the fools spam the chain. They are just moving more money into the Bitcoin market cap anyway, and out of their spoilt brat paper hands.
