Nah there are plenty including starkness

Drivechains

Alright people, we are playing a game of chess here. The one thing, the absolute one thing, we can't do is give up the king. To give up the king, in my humble opinion, is to mess up the base layer. This mistake would disrupt the delicate incentive structure that ensures sound money. That sound money pegs the extremely fragile credit markets and out-of-control G7 policymakers that are creating clown world with their CB fiat policies.

We don’t need the sound, pegged, money to move fast, we don’t need the money to do smart swoopty things, we just need it to be pegged, immutable, and digitally sailable to actually stop the madness of clown world.

By introducing a whole lot of technical complexity to the base layer and potentially screwing with the incentives all so we can connect to a bunch of centralized shitcoin projects is like playing offense with the king when you’re down 7 pieces and the other player still has their entire back row at their disposal.

A. Why the rush!?

B. Why not just go use Monero if you need that level of anominity in your transactions. Why do you have to have it in a wrapper via drivechains?

C. Why risk the king without deep understanding and testing of the technical risk and potential change to incentives?

The beauty of Bitcoin is you can build it and softfork it, and we’ll let the community vote with their nodes. BUT, I for one, have no use for drivechains (that doesn’t mean everyone is like me). And as a result, I will not be updating my node and running any attempted “secret” softfork updates by the miners.

BIP 300

what do you know? what do you think?

aaaaaaa

why do so many pro drive chain people rely so heavily on ad hominem wording? If the idea stands, it should stand on its own.

if you’re pro drivechains, keep in mind you advocating to add ‘upvotes’ into the heart of bitcoin. check the BIP

Syncing a Bitcoin node over Tor isn't feasible.

Operating a Lightning node over Tor is a pretty massive fail.

I'd love to see someone do a proof of concept of running Bitcoin & Lightning nodes on the Veilid network.

So just curious. Is nostr GDPR compliant? Regarding the right to be forgotten etc. 🤔🍿

lnd has openbsd binaries and can be crosscompiled effortlessly. cln can maybe be compiled manually on openbsd but none of the tutorials I found worked with recent versions.

cross compilation for cln would be so complex it's not even worth considering as an option.

One disconcerting bit of consensus I've noticed amongst longevity experts is they seem to agree that a plant based diet is best for epigenetic health.

This is at odds with the diet recommendations of my personal trainer. Which sucks because I'm simultaneously running several epigenetic experiments alongside a bodybuilding program.

Wat do?

Currently playing the elimination game of "guess which supplement has turned my farts into chemical weapons."

Even if your lightning wallet is self-custodial, if it doesn't do its own pathfinding then whoever does learns the payer, recipient, and amount 👀

This is why I love Blixt wallet for people who aren't running a node! The user can set up multiple channels so paths are more resilient opposed to something like Phoenix users that have one channel to Acinq and have no payment privacy

CBDCs are inevitable. Bitcoin is for ANYONE who wants opt out not EVERYONE.

Most people won't, can't control general stupidity.

Agree. But the fact is, monero had no L2 at the moment.
