BITCOIN SEASON 2: Filters Are Futile

We’re explaining why trying to filter Bitcoin is a fool’s errand. We dive into the “filter debate,” dissecting why some Bitcoin purists are demanding JPEG‑free blocks and why their efforts are futile, but harmful to the bitcoin network. Fee economics, block‑size limits, real‑world examples, and the clash between censorship resistance and arbitrary data.
