But we saved everything 🙂.

Szabo’s current stance on transaction fee reform builds on his longstanding concerns regarding the impact of arbitrary content on blockchain integrity, a topic he addressed when discussing the increased Bitcoin threat from arbitrary content. His broader economic perspective has also encompassed issues beyond cryptocurrencies, including the challenges of housing affordability amid declining real wages.
