💬 willcl-ark commented on issue "Stop shipping ARM32 builds for releases?":
(https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/issues/32375#issuecomment-2841444915)
I think I heard that that the Pi 5 ARM chips are _unable_ to boot a 32bit kernel (although you can still hack about in a 32 bit userspace if you really want), so it seems that the day is definitely getting nearer.

If I am correct above the question then perhaps becomes "how long do we want to ship release builds for Pi 3's and 4's".

Concept NACK

Removing op_return output limit will be ineffective in making a dent in the UTXO bloat because of the segwit discount vs cost of putting data in op_return. We should focus on addressing the UTXO bloat issue head on vs hoping that people will pay more just to store data "the right way".

opens up a worse attack vector. there are more creative ways to solve utxo bloat.

> I didn't mean that they setup this connection to a miner on purpose, I meant that they just happened to be connect to a miner by chance (which I think is much more likely to happend on testnet than on mainnet).

Even in that case, they've manually modified their own node to accept non standard transactions so they should have some chance of being aware that something weird is going on. Also, if it is the case that randomly connecting to nodes finds you a testnet miner that accepts non standa

Tend toward -0. As mentioned above in my first comment, it is not sufficient to achieve the goal you are trying to achieve, so it mostly brings the downsides mentioned above with questionable benefits.

Going forward, one could say the only way for developers to inject non-standard transactions into testnet_N is to ask a miner or rent some hashrate to do it.

However, injecting test-only non-standard transactions into a test network comes with its own downsides, like requiring more exception

If this is dropped in the future, I guess we'll wholesale drop support for 32-bit architectures? If there is no release 32-bit build that we feel like is worth keeping, then I wonder if it is worth it to check and support it in CI.

> There is no difference in actual resource consumption, block weight is just an accounting trick.

I have to disagree here. The weight of data stored in blocks has a direct impact on the throughput of the system, a property that is as critical for the operations of the system, if not more, than others properties like the size of the UTXO set.

A given quantity of data stored in a op_return output has a far larger negative externality on the throughput than the same data stored in

As mentioned before, 32 bit support isn't tested as thoroughly as 64 (e.g. https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/28531/files#r2036954366), it would simplify a few scenarios if we didn't have walk on eggshells when doing storage size calculations (e.g. https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/blob/master/src/util/byte_units.h#L15)

Better to just increase default size and keep config ops. If some people'd like to pretend that it is not already happenig - so be it
📝 Sjors opened a pull request: "mining: rename gbt_force and gbt_force_name"
(https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/32386)
The term "force" is ambiguous and not used in [BIP9](https://github.com/bitcoin/bips/blob/master/bip-0009.mediawiki#getblocktemplate-changes) where there ! rule prefix is introduced.

E.g. this code is hard to read:

```cpp
if (!gbt_force) {
s.insert(s.begin(), '!');
```

Additionally, #29039 renamed `gbt_vb_name` to `gbt_force_name` which might, at least for me, further increased the confusion.

This is a pure (variable rename) refactor and does not change behavior.

Concept NACK. Removing OP_RETURN makes it more difficult to run full nodes and, as a result, gradually centralizes the network. This is not an issue where a small group of developers can implement changes that affect Bitcoin's core assumptions.
