I don't get very well where all the current (other threats) discussions are going, storing on-chain is absurd

It's absurd also to flood bitcoin with several useless transactions to store in witness or others, looks like ethereum messy stuff

What is not absurd is to store the proofs that can be checked using a notorious third party/sidechain but you need more than 80B

What is the official bitcoin channel to request the OP_RETURN size change? (press often mentions that ethereum is good to manage changes and bitcoin a complete zero)

As a very bad solution, I think I would be willing to store data in addresses, with one single transaction, as people did in the past, then burning bitcoins but still not expensive, or less than several txs, because schemes involving several transactions do not work very well

In any case, we see the problem, then people will invent something and most likely it will not comply at all with bitcoin good practices

"what" is a hash for example

Updating the size of OP_RETURN to support a hash (or two), a signature, and maybe a few more bytes for metadata, would be very helpful in a number of scenarios. It is still a limit but a reasonable one. Otherwise, I think we'll have a lot more inscription-style scenarios.

I wouldn't be against an increase in OP_RETURN but I don't think it will make any difference in how often inscription-style use cases will be used. They will be used primarily for much larger datasets than, say 120 bytes, and they also have the segwit discount.
