Bitcoin developer embeds 66-kilobyte image directly into blockchain, rebutting BIP-110 proposal
Slovak Bitcoin developer Martin Habovstiak (마르틴 하보시타크), who maintains the Rust Bitcoin library, embedded a 66-kilobyte image file directly into the Bitcoin blockchain as a single continuous transaction. The Block reported the demonstration directly rebuts several key claims around the anti-spam BIP-110 proposal and the Bitcoin Knots node implementation. The transaction can be publicly verified and decoded into a TIFF image, and it used SegWit v0 without OP_RETURN, Taproot or OP_IF.
