The author of 'The Bitcoin Standard' will fund developers to deal with spam data on the BTC chain. Saifedean Ammous, the author of 'The Bitcoin Standard' and economist, has expressed his willingness to financially support full-time developers dedicated to increasing the cost of spam inscriptions on the Bitcoin network to curb their proliferation. He likened this issue to spam in emails and believes that technical measures should be employed to make the generation of spam data more expensive, thereby reducing its impact on the network. Saifedean Ammous emphasized that combating spam data is not a form of censorship, but a legitimate means for node operators to maintain network health. He also proposed to 'discard' the work of developers who specialize in creating spam data tools, and even hire external developers to suppress these systems. This debate reflects the ongoing divisions within the Bitcoin community regarding the use of the network, and as on-chain spam data increases, calls for technical countermeasures are also rising.
