币界网报道：A Bitcoin developer has proposed banning over 3,000 Knots nodes from the network due to a dispute over OP_RETURN transactions. The conflict stems from Knots nodes rejecting transactions with OP_RETURN outputs exceeding 80 bytes, diverging from Bitcoin Core’s 220-byte limit. Developer Luke Dashjr argues these nodes create network inconsistencies and suggests enforcing a minimum protocol version to exclude them. However, Knots maintainer Luke Dashjr (yes, same name) defends the nodes, stating they follow Bitcoin’s original design principles. The debate highlights tensions between preserving Bitcoin’s original vision and accommodating evolving use cases like Ordinals inscriptions, which rely on OP_RETURN for data storage. Some community members warn that forcibly removing nodes could centralize control and set dangerous precedents for network governance.
