In this episode, Janusz joins the show to discuss the growing tension in the Bitcoin community over layer two (L2) scaling, especially around rollups like Citrea. We also unpack a proposed change to the OP_RETURN limit, the ideological split between Bitcoin core devs and cultural purists (aka "filters"), and the implications for Bitcoin’s long-term scalability and security models. Enjoy!
