imagine grabbing your free 0.05 BTC from a faucet in April 2011. then realizing 16 years later that wallet can be cashed in for over $4k

The all-time record was set by block 367853 with 12,239 transactions. A figure only possible because the block was packed with extremely small non-standard transactions to clean up the UTXO set after a dust spam attack

a whole block full of nothing... each of the chunky green transactions in block 972007 is a ~3kb taproot script spend consisting of 255 zero bytes pushed and then dropped 11 times.

looking at the primary address used for these, you can see a slow but steady accumulation of value from thousands of swept lightning and p2a anchors, then an abrupt setback today from the accidental wastage. bc1psthd7lpnxvugel99ahw3uemd4xwetkt35j3mrcqhucvd3ll2ufxshpnv9p

it's unclear to me what the purpose of the "filler" transactions is, if they aren't supposed to be mined. presumably some kind of policy exploit to fend off competition for sweeping anchors, but I haven't figured out the exact mechanism.

I just spotted a strange non-standard transaction 🧐 the locking scripts for these inputs consist solely of data pushes of raw ASCII text.

it's turtles all the way down... ‣ depth 7 tapscript spend ‣ 4-of-4 multisig ‣ SIGHASH_NONE ‣ P2A anchor @tabconf looks like fun this year!

it's not Binohash, not QSB, with a more efficient output script than either. would the wizard responsible like to step forward?

what kind of post-quantum hash-based-signature shenanigans are you people getting up to in 4.8kb of scriptpubkey? 🧐

The most recent post by ColdCard @COLDCARDwallet is a complete scam and attempt to steal your coins. DO NOT FOLLOW INSTRUCTIONS. The URL redirect is to a site I have never seen @Coinkite @COLDCARDwallet use ever. This is out of an abundance of caution. I am not linking the post
