Mempool policy is just as important as consensus! If a group of people change the mempool policy they are the attackers and attackers have no place in this community.
We stack the sats, we run the Knots! We then win! cOrE v30 has not been released as of this note's date. Congrats to alll the toxic giga chads for not backing down!!! Fuck the mempool policy attackers. Go pound sand and get the fuck out of our community! We don't want you here ever again!
The Timechains consensus is agnostic to data type. LET ME REPEAT -consensus is agnostic to data type.
The only filter systems in Bitcoin are the mempool policies. Mempool polices are the only system in place to keep non-monetary data off the Timechain. Any group of people that want to fuck with node mempool policies are ENEMIES to Bitcoin!
So any fucker who tries to start an argument for the stupid technical argument that it aligns with "consensus" is literately saying mempool polices be damned.
Mempool polices are the only and thus extremely important guard against the ideologies that are not aligned to the True Bitcoin ethos!
Mempool polices are just as important as consensus!!!
Since Bitcoin's consensus rules do not restrict non-monetary data on the blockchain (as discussed previously), mempool policiesβnode-specific filters for transaction relay and acceptanceβserve as the primary mechanism to limit such data from propagating widely and entering blocks. For instance, traditional policies capped OP_RETURN outputs (a common way to embed arbitrary data) at 83 bytes and limited them to one per transaction, discouraging spam or bloat by making these transactions harder to relay across the network. Without these policies, valid transactions with excessive non-monetary data could flood mempools more easily, increasing the likelihood of inclusion by miners. However, policies are not absolute barriers: miners can still directly include consensus-valid transactions with such data if they choose, though this is rare due to relay challenges and economic incentives. Recent changes in Bitcoin Core (as of the October 2025 release) have relaxed the default OP_RETURN limit in policies, shifting more reliance toward miner discretion and user fees to manage data growth. In essence, mempool filtering remains essential for practical control over the timechain's composition.
