I think most Bitcoiners haven’t fully grokked how much work Gloria (and Greg Sanders and others) did to get package relay and zero-fee anchors and TRUC over the line and how absolutely critical this...
Spark is garbage from the outset. We'll see about how Ark actually helps trustless p2p exchange of bitcoin. I think it won't. Lightning is also becoming increasingly centralized, hostile/useless for nodes with pleb-reasonable capacity, and dominated by morons selling nothing but needless complexity and surveillance. Thus far, I'm not impressed.
