At least for some percent of people glancing at this nostr:npub1e4qg56wvd3ehegd8dm7rlgj8cm998myq0ah8e9t5zeqkg7t7s93q750p76's diagram would give them a little more insight on how Nostr works. Where should we place it to make that happen?
this is cute!!
iiuc blockstream has basically been eating this cost, maybe at some point tx fees onchain will cover it + help payback what they already spent
definitely a good question about incentives to run sidechains tho — unless you’re taking margin on swaps to/from the chain or issuing a token there isn’t really much incentive to run one, afaict
honestly, big benefit of the way LN contracts are constructed is they dont need onchain refreshes to stay valid over time
I asked Adam about the logic for it last year, he told me the fees go to pay for rotating the federation’s onchain utxos, to refresh the timelocks
if they dont get regularly rotated, eventually the onchain funds can be spent by a smaller emergency keys multisig
it’s a normal cost for any multisig thats using contracts with timelocked emergency spend path. basically every corporate structured multisig works this way, see anchorwatch contracts
i do love a good port number 🚢 here’s to more shipping in 2024 🎉 https://video.nostr.build/730ee82e9a5d9562c6ecd1e466b57785bd79d3cc5ad3b825565f280eb3ff3bbc.mp4
Bitcoin scaling: the forever war
SIGHASH-NOINPUT got renamed to sighash-anyonecanpay or APO for short
merry xmas 🤶i got u a car 🚗🤭 
there’s a whole exact draft spec of how it’d work too, written alongside the implementation work
fwiw instagibbs built a mostly functional version of eltoo using APO in a fork of CLN. APO has prototypes but no stack of plebs calling for its activation.
i wonder why that is
hate that i feel like im taking style notes from a saylor post 😹 
Labor vs Leisure theory of value, pretty sure Veblen nailed it
I cant remember exactly but I think it was Veblen who gave Marx props for coming up with a rhetoric that was extremely correct if you assume the underlying philosophy and almost impossible to refute otherwise
Of course Veblen then goes on to mock it with his Leisure Theory of Value
