What I sincerely can't understand is why you would launch a venture where decentralization and #stratumv2 are the marketed goals and then disband the standard mempool policy of the last 10 years.
Now the entire Ocean.xyz conversation has been sullied by this absurd and tired OP_RETURN war.
If Luke won't be able to dictate miners soon, then why on earth kick up a shit storm in the short period of time where he can dictate to the pool? Why not just stick with the policy rules in 85%+ standard miners.
Imagine if, instead of censoring Whirlpool, Ocean went out with OFAC-compliant blocks only. This is Wasabi-level regardation.
I guess he's a better engineer than a marketer

Let's hope so. Luke's Bitcoin is more than 2000 commits behind bitcoin:master, so I won't be surprised if more unappealing differences are uncovered in the coming weeks/months.
