According to Protos, OCEAN Mining Pool Vice President Jason Hughes announced the sale of all his Bitcoin and his exit from the industry in opposition to Bitcoin Core's upcoming adjustment to the OP_RETURN rules. 31 core developers signed a letter yesterday, planning to increase the default mempool transaction limit to 4MB in the next Bitcoin Core v30 update (October), supporting data on-chain for DAOs, oracles, and more. This move has sparked controversy, and Hughes expressed disappointment, believing that the uniqueness of Bitcoin has been lost. He has received job offers outside the crypto industry.
