Matthew covers UTXO bloat from ordinals and inscriptions, the uncapping of OP_RETURN, and how Core devs prioritized theoretical bloat over real attack surface. With 20% of nodes already on Bitcoin Knots, he explains BIP-110 - the temporary soft fork to reverse Core's changes. Plus: Michael Saylor's Ethereum DeFi pivot, the risks of Bitcoin-backed loans, and why Bitcoin plebs are the network's true immune system. Essential listening for anyone running a node, practicing self custody, or defending Bitcoin's decentralization. 🔑 Want to run your own node?
