Thus even if the miner was forced to pay transaction fees on the garbage block he'd simply get all the money back after it was posted to the chain.
This was the first thing I thought of when you mentioned the fee thing, lol.
Really what caught my attention was the toxicity thing: I remember when I first interacted with BTC about 5 years ago (I was about 14-15y old by that time).
When I started in this world I had lots and lots of doubts, and when I used to ask things relevant to trading or mining many, many (seriously, MANY) messages were too toxic.
Things like "A 15-year-old kid learning about this? Go and scam somewhere else" or "These are not things for people like you to use, go study" were really frequent, I mean, bruh XD
And it's quite disappointing to think that the community is still just as toxic despite all the years that have passed.
Lightning Network
I hadn't heard this name for a while, I still remember the debate between whether to do an HF or implement Lightning, and I guess both exist today. What's the deal with it nowadays? Wdym by centralized?
