Agenda

This months BitDevs will be a discussion on OP_RETURN and the great filter debate of 2025.

Discussion Topics:

Great Filter Debate: Should Bitcoin’s mempool filter non-monetary transactions like Ordinals or CoinJoins? We’ll discuss censorship resistance vs. network efficiency, referencing arguments from developers like Luke Dashjr and the #FixTheFilters movement.

OP_RETURN Controversy: Peter Todd’s PR #32359 proposes removing the 80-byte OP_RETURN limit. Should nodes keep -datacarrier configurability, or align with miners’ practices? We’ll explore impacts on fees, block space, and a reported 1MB OP_RETURN in block 896,696.

6-7 pm: social hour

7-9 pm: discussion
