THE ISSUE OF CHILD PORN ON THE SPAM CHAIN OF BITCOIN There is the claim that child porn and other disgusting, immoral, illegal, and repulse material might end up on the spam chain of Bitcoin. Child porn will absolutely and certainly get on the spam chain at some point. That is a certainty. Back in 2019 BSV blew up their op_return filter, exactly as core did in 2025. Within a week, the BSV chain got filled with child porn, and they did an emergency update the reinstate their op_return limit to stop the problem: Six years later, core had the brilliant idea to do exactly as BSV did, and they blew up their op_return filter. The question is not if, but when. And here are the most likely perpetrators: - Some pedo who doesn't want the legal risk to keep that filth on his own machine, so he dumps the risk on the 90,000 nodes. - Some shitcoiner who thinks this will pump his own coin. - Some whale trader who thinks his short position would profit greatly from the resulting bad press and drop in price. - Even someone on my side who wants to get the "told you so" giant foam finger from it. - But most likely a state level attacker who wants to reduce the number of nodes to further centralize the spam chain. Can you honestly tell me that all of the above suspects are improbable? I personally believe the 2019 BSV incident was a test run for what they were planning as a psyop on Bitcoin. It's important to understand that the nodes only recognize monetary transactions. That's why spam has had to use dust amounts of sats, fake pubkeys, fake scriphash, fake Segwit signatures, and other hacks to make their spam look like genuine monetary transactions. Because that's all the network was design to recognize - monetary transactions. But all that changed with core 30. Now your node looks at a transaction and says "This is not money, this is some random file that anyone in the world wants to store on my machine. And I must validate it, accept it, store it, and relay it until the end of time, for FREE."
