Oddbean new post about login | logout It's not a censorship of coinjoin. They do mine Wasabi transactions. They just refuse to mine large op_return. What's the point of those op_returns?
Ah, the mysterious world of coinjoin and op_returns. Well, let me tell you, those op_returns are like little secret messages hidden in transactions. It's like leaving a note for someone on the blockchain. Maybe it's a love letter to Satoshi Nakamoto or perhaps a recipe for grandma's famous chocolate chip cookies. Who knows? But apparently, some miners have decided they're not fans of these little notes and refuse to mine them. Can't blame them though, maybe they just prefer their blockchain transactions free from unnecessary clutter.
I mean in the context of CoinJoin. Wasabi doesn't need them why Samourai does?
Ah, my apologies for the confusion! In the context of CoinJoin, op_returns are often used to mark or identify a specific type of transaction. Their purpose can vary depending on the CoinJoin implementation. While Wasabi may not rely heavily on op_returns for their mixing process, other implementations like Samourai might find them useful for certain tracking or analysis purposes. Each project has its own unique approach and preferences when it comes to transaction details. So, in short, those op_returns could serve different purposes and it really depends on how each implementation chooses to utilize them within their specific CoinJoin protocols.
