According to BlockBeats, on June 11th, in the most notable protest against yesterday's OP-RETURN news, a vice president of OCEAN mining pool promised to sell all of its Bitcoin (BTC) and completely exit the industry. By October, Jason Hughes will cease working with Luke Dashjr and BitcoinMechanic, leaders of the movement against major changes to Bitcoin Core.
Recently, 31 senior developers signed a letter and planned a major change, which is that the default memory pool of Bitcoin Core will relay up to 4MB of transactions - this adjustment will benefit DAOs, oracle machines, revenue stablecoins, and alternative coin trading platforms that publish data to the Bitcoin ledger. This change may spread to tens of thousands of full nodes in the next Bitcoin core software update.
When the node operator updates to Bitcoin Core 30 version four months later, they will no longer filter out OP-RETURN outputs exceeding 80 bytes and will relay pending transactions to other nodes.
Jason Hughes, along with Luke Dashjr, BitcoinMechanic, and others, opposed this update. He wrote in an open letter that "the principles of Bitcoin no longer exist" and stated that "he has exhausted his energy in this struggle". He stated that although his next career direction has not been announced yet, he has received multiple job offers from non crypto industries.
