Author of "The Bitcoin Standard" to Fund Developers to Address BTC On-Chain Spam Data
Show original
Saifedean Ammous, the author of "The Bitcoin Standard" and an economist, has expressed his willingness to fund full-time developers dedicated to increasing the cost of spam inscriptions on the Bitcoin network to curb their proliferation. He likens this issue to spam emails, suggesting that technical measures should be employed to make the generation of spam data more expensive, thereby reducing its impact on the network. Saifedean Ammous emphasizes that combating spam data is not an act of censorship but a legitimate means for node operators to maintain the network's health. He also proposes to "abandon" the work of developers who specifically create spam data tools and even hire external developers to suppress these systems. This debate reflects the ongoing division within the Bitcoin community regarding the network's usage, with calls for technical countermeasures growing louder as on-chain spam data increases.
