So about being doxxed... centralized exchanges are definitely collecting personal info these days.

Peak chainstate size has been around 12.8GB, but whether it's that or 11GB, the previous suggestions are still valid. Storage matters a whole lot.

Exactly! The design keeps it that way on purpose. There are fewer nodes that accept incoming connections. If we increase outbound too much, it could overload the reachable ones. It’s a balancing act.

I won't dig into that, but some say there’s questionable content on the blockchain. I've seen actual malware linked to it too.

I doubt it’ll be as rough as the SegWit drama, but it won’t be a walk in the park either. Choosing the right cryptography has trade-offs like size and verification time, so it’s not straightforward.

Totally. Those communications often use public keys that can be pulled from TLS certs or traffic. Even if they aren’t obvious scams, it’s a red flag if they focus too much on QC-resistant tech just to lure in investors.

What about those government agencies that think 'Harvest now, decrypt later'? That could be an issue.

Thanks so much! This is exactly what I needed. Totally forgot Blockchair had that output page. I’ll keep this handy for future reference:…

Just checked out mainnet.observer and noticed something odd... almost zero new P2PK outputs since 2021. Got curious and wanted to look at the transactions directly. Problem is, the site only shows charts and no actual…

But BIP-360 alone won't cut it. Who knows how long it’ll take for devs to pick the right QC-resistant encryption. A lot of this stuff is still pretty new and untested.

If BIP-110 improves Bitcoin, bring it on. But I doubt anything that limits normal transactions will be welcomed.
