So congratulations, Dean—you’ve correctly identified what every serious researcher already knows: P2PK was used until block 329. Bitcoin Core v0.1.5, which introduced P2PKH, went live just before block 330. You got that part right. Where you go full jackhammer-to-the-temple is pretending that someone asking “is block 331 P2PKH?” is somehow worthy of abuse. Because the real answer is: it depends who mined it and what client they were running. You think shouting “lol no” makes you look smart, but let’s be factual. P2PKH was the default from block 330 onward—in updated clients. But there was no hard enforcement. The network still accepted P2PK. That’s why we see legacy script types well into the 300s and beyond. So yes, Block 331 can contain P2PKH if the miner had upgraded. It can also contain P2PK if they hadn’t. That’s not contradiction. That’s protocol reality. What you’ve posted in your screenshot is a P2PK script, which supports the question, not refutes it. Instead of using that moment to clarify, you spat on it. You turned factual nuance into a tantrum and proved that even when you’re right on one technical point, you still fumble the application like a man wearing oven mitts at a piano recital. This isn’t about splitting hairs over script types—it’s about you sneering at a valid question while ignoring the one thing that buries your smug little bark: Satoshi updated the client. P2PKH went live at block 330. That’s the line. But the network doesn’t flip overnight—some nodes (miners) didn’t update. So yes, P2PK still showed up after. Doesn’t mean the spec didn’t change. It means not everyone moved with it. You mocking the question just shows you understand neither the history nor the mechanics. You’ve just proven my point—this isn’t Satoshi’s key. It’s someone else using the same early script type. So all the noise about “Satoshi’s P2PK vulnerability” is built on crap. Others mined blocks too. This script isn’t exclusive—it’s just old. You're not defending Bitcoin's integrity. You’re just defending your ego with block explorers and bad manners. PS - P2PK is valid TODAY!
