Good morning,
All layers and technologies "on" Bitcoin will fail in situations where
miners misbehave or the blocks & mempool remain consistently, overly full.
Consider this as a "law" of Bitcoin/blockchains.
In hindsight (for you, not me) it was very unwise to start messing with
mempool policies
Why wasn't this solution put in place back then? Are there problems with
the design?
While I still think there are unhealthy side-effects of Full-RBF (like more
doublespending at unknowing merchants, after years of FSS protection) I
think discussion of this FSS-RBF feature is worth considering.

Zman,
Price Theory simply explains the relationship between supply & demand. Your
post makes some logical leaps in that you are implying that demand follows
supply, which of course is not true, nor is that a claim of Price Theory.
If Bitcoin has less utility, it will have less demand, regardless o

As we debate mempoolfullrbf, and I familiarize myself with related PRs from
engineers trying to reign in all of the possible behaviors that make it
inconsistent, I can’t help but think about how I see people using the term
“incentive-compatible” and how it seems to be awfully presumptive.
The idea

If this "perception" were not true, RBF & full-RBF would not be necessary
at all. Think about it.

Anthony,
I took the time to read your whole post. Despite a diplomatic tone, I find
your takeaways from all your references to remain conveniently biased for
protecting the plan of RBF via passive aggression.
You show multiple examples where, when I read them, I assume the next thing
you will say
Simply, 0conf acceptance can be monitored and enforced by the merchant and
exposure to doublespends can be both mitigated and limited in size per
block. It is less expensive to be double-spent occasionally than to have a
delayed checkout experience. Responsible 0conf acceptance is both rational
and
tures for minority speculative interests.

In support of Dario's concern, I feel like there is a degree of gaslighting
happening with the advancement of RBF somehow being okay, while merchants
wanting to manage their own 0conf risk better being not okay.
The argument against 0conf acceptance seems to be "miners can facilitate
doublespends

Billy,
Proof of work and the difficulty adjustment function solve literally
everything you are talking about already.
Bitcoin does not need active economic governanance by devs or meddlers.
Please stop spamming this list with this nonsensical thread.

Core development is not a hackathon project.
None of the quoted following items are features or responsibilities of the
Bitcoin software, nor Core developers.

Jeremy,
The path to consensus is to propose things that everyone needs. Demand
comes from the market, not the designers.
Designers (engineers) solve problems with designs, but when they speculate
and lead the process, they create problems instead. Bitcoin is not a place
for speculative feature ad
