**RT @tabconf:**

TABconf will also have discussion on this. Early September is another good time to learn in person. :)

**Response to @fiatjaf:**

\- Apparently Lightning developers have started to realize it is not a good idea to close a channel in order to redeem a trimmed HTLC -- but it's not clear what they must do instead

\- Simplicity trumps everything

\- Lightning will rely more and more on reputation and game theory

The latest @ChaincodeLabs (https://nitter.moomoo.me/ChaincodeLabs) podcast episode with @rusty\_twit (https://nitter.moomoo.me/rusty_twit) is pretty good. Some things I took from it:

\- Rusty wants anyprevout.xyz (https://anyprevout.xyz) and hopes that will happen as soon as possible, but he doesn't have a concrete plan for activation

\- Lightning is currently overcomplicated

**RT @Truth_in_Number:**

I saw a post today saying myocarditis deaths were blowing up in the US.

Myocarditis is a very rare cause of death in the US. 2019, it accounted for 0.02% of all deaths in US.

In 2020 myocarditis death rate jumped 9.9%

DROPPED 10.3% in 2021

Dropped 8% in 2022

If we activate Drivechain and it works we can probably reduce the blocksize to 300kb and be happy forever.

**RT @super_testnet:**

These things about bitcoin annoy me a bit: fees are often so high that LN is the only halfway decent option. But LN is not as reliable as bitcoin, transactions fail too often. I \*think\* drivechains would be (1) reliable like bitcoin (2) low fee like LN (3) low chance of theft.

**RT @BitcoinErrorLog:**

Here's a link to a debate with me and about Drivechains from a year ago @Truthcoin (https://nitter.moomoo.me/Truthcoin) (starts at 3:05:)

I don't remember how comprehensive it is with arguments, but it's at least a chance to hear two people attempting to argue in good faith.

Did I win?

**RT @Truthcoin:**

Bip300 is inevitable, btw

It is the only L2 that:

\\* pays miners +

\\* that you can directly onboard to.

So it will activate via MASF, eventually.

ARK , LN , Federated Chains -- these don't pay miners. No one will pay $10 (or $20) to join those. ARK and LN stop working at that…

I bought a domain on namecheap.com (https://namecheap.com). They had two payment options for Bitcoin: Bitpay and BTCPay. For BTCPay they only accepted onchain transactions, but with Bitpay they accepted Lightning.

Guess who won: self-hosted or custodial solution?

**RT @johndavies24:**

The same threats that DC could pose already exist. No new threats are added... Unless of course you're afraid that DC bootstraps things that are better than bitcoin (3/3)

**RT @johndavies24:**

Annoyingly, you arent acknowledging that these centralization forces already exist w/o benefiting BTC (DC would benefit BTC). Considering all non-BTC uses of blockspace (side chains, pegs/wBTC, MM, other chains checkpointing, timestamps, proof of publication, etc)...(2/3)

**RT @johndavies24:**

This piece wasnt as bad as I expected. I think you paid some lip service to the benefits. You basically said that there could be ways of doing it w/o a SF (bip118), that DC could add meaningless proofs, & the common "don't add another force to miner centralization"... (1/3)

**RT @Truthcoin:**

Truthfully the reckless thing is to wait yet another 8 years (2015-->2023) before taking action

**RT @callebtc:**

Isolation is key for security. If you build a Lightning-enabled app, you don't want to grant it access to all funds on your node.

Use @LNbits (https://nitter.moomoo.me/lnbits) as an intermediate layer for security to give your app its own wallet. Whatever could go wrong with it, only its own wallet is at risk.
