Brian Armstrong said that Coinbase would add Lightning support before, after he tried to email nostr:npub1lr2zzf989mvf393y0tv39ara6a4vddkd6y87z784up9vl6ks6j3qtudl6a some sats. I'll believe it when I see it. And even when Coinbase finally does ass Lightning support, I won't be surprised if Brian pushes for Taro / Taproot Assets. It's absolutely in his playbook.

I'll bet anything it's gonna be blocked in good ole NY
NYS hates financial freedom.
Right?!
They still won't allow Cashapp or Fold to enable Bitcoin/Lightning. I'm like hellloooo I'm trying to stack here!
It's mind-blowing some of the laws this state has gotten away with.
I wish they would separate the city from us. I feel like the NYSE might be why they're so hesitant. That and they can't tax the shit out of it. The KYC requirements alone are gross 🤢
If taproot assets fuel more support for lightning across lots of payment apps & services then I'm okay with it.
I don't mind Taproot Assets. I'm just saying that they could be a motivational factor for him.

Consensus on that thought.
But atleast can we put Drivechains to sleep 🛌 or too early?
Brian is and always will be a köch 🤷♂️
He'll def push for Taro/TP assets...he runs a public company and is beholden to shareholders. Those shareholders want profits, now. #hightimepreference
