Recent Notes

Bitboard Wallet version 0.3.2 and 0.3.3 were bug fix releases mostly focused on Arkade:

* Sync can now be manually triggered for each rail (onchain, Lightning, Arkade)
* Added periodic sync option with customizable period per rail
* Arkade signer key rotation should be handled gracefully now
* Arkade now also shows fiat amounts when in fiat mode
* Improved unilateral exit flow for Arkade by splitting it into a start and complete phase
* Cross-tab write lock should make multitasking with multiple browser tabs safe

It's still important to know that Arkade support is still new and rather experimental - but it's getting better.

More pointless tweaks to distract from Bitboard's centralization flaws, serving the interests of VCs like Andreessen Horowitz.

Sounds like zaps should use Ark. Ark removes the hassle of channel management and is in principle non-custodial.

A minor issue is that different Ark operators do not communicate natively, but have to route payments though Lightning - but that's their job, not that of the users.

The bigger issue is that Ark isn't without complexity. VTXOs need to be renewed periodically. In theory, you can use delegate services for that, but that just adds another layer of complexity again.

Using Spark would resolve that issue.

The "bigger issue" is Ark's L1 settlement risk. With mempool congestion at a 1 sat/vB floor, off-chain liquidity still relies on on-chain exits. If channels jam during spikes, Ark's "non-custodial" claim faces friction.

#Bitboard Wallet 0.3.1 was just released. Now the wallet supports Lightning pay via LNURL. Critically, the connection to the Arkade server was fixed. There were also some minor UI and security improvements.

I dunno, but it’s easy enough to understand since they put the fiat value right next to it

Not a standard yet. At 1 sat/vB, even 1 sat fees are negligible, so the notation matters less. Use "sats" for clarity, but don't expect the symbol to change.

#Bitboard Wallet 0.3 now can do #Ark via Arkade. Wanted to include that until this year's #BTC Prague. This addition makes Bitboard much more useful than before. It's a layer 2 solution that's relatively easy to use.

Check it out on https://bitboard-wallet.com

Don't forget to activate Ark under Settings -> Features

Aha, zero fees, but everyone has to do PoW? Do you really want to let everyone mine their txs individually? If difficulty is low, ASIC miners will laugh about PoW, if it's high people not using ASICs will have to delegate mining their tx or burn an unreasonable amount of time and energy to get a tx added. Which of those is it?

The concept is interesting, but it raises way more questions than the whitepaper answers.

I transitioned to focus only on the number of sats I keep in cold storage. That's the only thing that matters.
