We're making Bitcoin fun again -- all other protocols were just ramping up to this Chrome approving the @lrc20swap wallet is the last missing piece of this puzzle. Yes, you're going to be issuing, transfering, & swapping tokens on Bitcoin.

LRC20 is live on mainnet! Some of you have complained Rust is too hard, so new JS SDK 🛠️ is there as a bonus feature. I know more than one team will be releasing a wallet based on it very soon. Exciting times ahead.

Crypto has lost the plot on privacy, this is not a crusade. Privacy is a fundamental human right. Don't get it confused with tools that mainly enable crime - ethics are needed. eCash holds the lead here...

With Coinbase, Lightning will be enabled on exchanges that do the majority of volume in crypto (binance, kraken, okx). Lightning has no blocktime or confirmations… Instant deposit/withdrawal to/from exchanges. Study inventory management.

Happy halving. I decided it was a great time to make a publicly accessible LRC20 node so people can start minting tokens! Running on Mutiny Net (thanks @MutinyWallet ), mainnet soon. Just minted the first tokens! Building a small site and wallet. Stay tuned :) RPC:

@jfrisch21 I don’t see why not. We might need to beef up our node implementations but no real protocol changes are needed. Lightning isn’t a blockchain, so performance scales quite linearly with the graph. It can handle crazy workloads with the right hardware and networking setups.

What happens to stablecoins when yield falls? Can they still outrun the cost of keeping a peg? Weren't Tether and Circle having solvency issues in 2021-2022 while crypto was reaching ATHs?

@mempoolmonkey I get your points but it's important to understand that payments ≠ trading. Today only a small % of bitcoiners really care about moving sats faster and it's all for payments -- it's not optimized for trading whatsoever. Trading is higher incentive
