every lightning node is a bitcoin sidechain

What you mean?

I created a GitHub issue for improving our NIP-46 support. It should work with nsec.app. You can also link other auth methods to an account at the bottom of your settings (which will work on mobile).

What do you mean by convert? If you want to make a GitHub issue, it’d be easier for us to track/discuss.

To my point, why are learning costs high? Are we saying these problems are categorically UX-hard (in the vein of computational complexity theory)? I'd love to see some formalization of that. I think "bitcoin is good enough, retail is lazy/dumb" might be true, but without probing how easy bitcoin can possibly get, it's equivalent to folding in texas hold'em before we've seen the flop imo.

Most of all, I want to hear why whatever you choose to write about is hard. Why don’t we have p2p mining pools that work well? Why is self custodial lightning hard? Why is lightning liquidity hard? Why are covenants without more op codes hard? Why is privacy hard?

We have a lot of content that’s like “it’ll be amazing when this-cool-thing-thats-theoretical-and-a-decade-away exists” and “this is exactly how this thing works.” I want to know what’s in the way between where we are now and where we want to go.

Write about what Bitcoiners need to attack - not how, but what and why. Layout the unsolved problems without ramming a pet solution down my throat.

How do they see without eyes?

Are ostriches supposed to have soft beaks?
@nevent1qvz...

Someone is replying to me with pictures of men holding featherless flesh colored ostrich necks.

I keep forgetting about this, thanks!

but only when it suits them

bitcoiners believe core controls bitcoin because they want to believe bitcoin can be controlled
