I had an even worse nightmare: Bitcoin developers, after realizing Lightning cannot scale as previously thought, decide to create a new Bitcoin script that would allow them to do many new forms of L2s, such as

- payment pools

- lightning symmetry

- timeout trees

- ark

https://follows.nostr.com/

imagine the "great script restoration" gives Bitcoin unlimited computational power. you can now do anything with script, even more than just OP_CAT would allow you to.

so what? ethereum has had all that since always and tons of people trying to find a way to scale payments there for almost 10 years and the best they got was zk-rollups, which is shitty as scaling and only increase throughput by 2x

I wish I could get inside the minds of these people who think "sharing utxos" accomplishes anything for Bitcoin in terms of scaling

lightning is already "sharing utxos" and look at how bad it is, any other construction will be worse

after HTLCs

anchor outputs were the worst idea

and I say this after fixing 5 horrible bugs on the ZBD Social codebase that gave existed for months. they were truly horrible.

even though they were so bad still the thing was working somewhat and no one lost any money due to them.

all software has bugs, it just happens that lightning software has many more bugs than normal and these bugs cost much more money than normal, and after 7 years of complete dedication of dozens of developers they still exist for the most basic things, and yet these same developers insist in adding more and more complex features to the protocol

Tell Milei to stop it!

It turns out that RGB requires receivers of assets to already have an UTXO, it can't be the UTXO that has just been created in the process of sending. This is the most convoluted design anyone could have thought about. Why people think this is a good idea is beyond me.

CTV is useless. If CTV is activated by UASF no one is going to use it. That doesn't mean we shouldn't activate APO, TXHASH, CAT, Drivechain, OP_VAULT and other things, because these are useful.

Hackathons are a waste of time.

On Linux they say it's your lucky day because there is an update! and then give you a link to a Debian package for download.

Dá pra comprar uma caneta BIC.

It's probably broken as always.
