Wait as I remembered luke is neutral right? nostr:npub1lh273a4wpkup00stw8dzqjvvrqrfdrv2v3v4t8pynuezlfe5vjnsnaa9nk

I don’t understand why it is an attack. Miner will be happy, shitcoin will be happy, ignorant user will be happy. And attract more users is good for bitcoin I guess?

My friend said it needs at least 5 years btc experience to understand why it’s an attack

I agree with you. I support it. Seems like a no-brainer to me. More layer 2s means better features for bitcoiners to utilise.

Yes, there is a risk of shitcoinery but thats the same with pretty much any layer 2 protocol. e.g. Taro, Ordinals, Inscriptions, Counterparty, Coloured coins etc.

What you talking about isn't Bitcoin. It would be a shitcoin, and it wouldn't be called #Bitcoin..πŸ˜ŠπŸ’‘

Is bitcoin on Lightning a shitcoin then?

Also, it should help miners to increase profitability as the block reward subsidy drops each halving.

Right, for one thing your Bitcoin would get confiscated by the man. So then you would go right back to being his bitch! Like you are now with Fiat..πŸ˜†πŸ˜‚πŸ€£πŸ€­πŸ˜Š
