The Bitcoin Infinity Show Rebuttal: Core vs Knots with Chris Guida | Bitcoin Infinity Show #189
Chris Guida joins the Bitcoin Infinity Show to talk about his rebuttal to Murch's earlier appearance on the show, arguing that Bitcoin Core devs are making the spam problem worse by removing mempool filters that Satoshi built in from the beginning, and that filtering transactions is fundamentally not censorship but a necessary defense of Bitcoin as money. The conversation covers why UTXO set bloat tripled during the BRC-20 spam attacks and crippled Raspberry Pi node syncing, how the CAT proposal alone scared spammers away and proved that Bitcoiner hostility works, and the philosophical divide between Core and Knots on whether Bitcoin's identity as sound money needs to be actively defended or will simply emerge on its own.
