Odaily Planet Daily reports that SlovakBitcoin developer and RustBitcoin library maintainer Martin Habovštiak has released a proof of concept that writes a 66kB TIFF image file into the Bitcoin blockchain through a single transaction without using OP_RETURN, Taproot, or OP_IF. The transaction can be publicly verified on-chain and decoded into the complete image file.
This experiment is seen as a direct challenge to LukeDashjr’s proposed “anti-spam” soft fork proposal BIP-110. BIP-110, originally known as BIP-444, aims to limit on-chain data storage, with some supporters believing such data storage behaviors deviate from Bitcoin’s core role as a “currency.” (The Block)
