Running spam filters on your Bitcoin node has a concrete, objective upside: it cuts your bandwidth usage.When a spammy transaction shows up, your node can either:Reject it outright (never even downloads the full thing), or Put it in the “extra pool” (mempool’s junk drawer) and refuse to relay it to peers.
