I respect @LynAlden greatly for all her financial knowledge and everything she is doing to move #bitcoin forward but I do think she is wrong here. We need to actively and unconditionally guard the #bitcoin garden at all costs.
Everything that is created by humans needs maintenance and safeguarding to keep it developing as intended. Bitcoin is money, which is an unavoidable human emergent technology but it is not gravity, it is not a layer 1 natural phenomenon where humans are bound to it instead of the other way around. Let's keep fighting the trolls out of our created garden. The faster the blockchain data size grows, the faster potential node runners are eliminated. Nodes are the decentralization force of bitcoin. Decentralization is what makes bitcoin. Freedom requires vigilance. Do not fall complacent and be ready to fight to protect that which matters. And this issue matters for bitcoin decentralization.
