Now where's my hat?

You can’t just waltz in here and demand a hat.

Still unanswered: How LN is going to help when Layer 1 is already clogged to the point of uselessness.

We will cross that bridge when we get there.  

If this price pump continues, we could get there next week. Unfortunately, there is no solution on the horizon under discussion.

And, get the fuck out of here with your exaggeration that there is no plan in BTC..

OK, JJG. Tell me what the plan is to deal with the fact that once blocks are persistently full, then average fees rise uncontrollably, average wait times raise uncontrollably, LN channel openings and closings get economically prohibitive, and number of new entrants gets hard-capped.

What is the plan, JJG - what is the plan?
The blocksize will be increased when necessary. Double the size, double the transactions. Not yet, though. The possible benefits are still outweighed by the risk of spam, which we all have seen. We haven't seen persistently full blocks eyt, though. So that's why it hasn't happened yet.

Besides, daily use of LN for a vast majority of transactions might make it less necessary to open and close channels frequently. And bulk channel openings have been in development for a while already. Some are well past the proof of concept stage (alpha,beta, testnet? I'm not up to date on that ATM).

Schnorr sigs are coming. They improve on-chain privacy, save block space, and they will make coinjoin-like transactions easier - including aggregation of LN channel open/close operations.

All this might not amount to a detailed plan, but it does look like a friggin' good approximation in my opinion.

Off topic, but...

Word around the campfire has it that Rosewater appears to be suffering from protracted post acute benzodiazepine withdrawal. It's all quite heady and complicated. Lots of ins. Lots of outs. Akathisia, some hallucinations. GABA receptor down-regulation. This on top of tardive dysphoria and that wheat thing, to the best of my knowledge. At any rate, doctors orders. The line between iatrogenic physical dependence and full blown pill sick smack-houndery is a bit unclear. Sometimes you eat the bear, sometimes the bear eats you.

'tis a fine line to thread, indeed.

However hard I work to catch up, I'm always stuck at ~70 pages behind.

I can't speak for the whole council, but I'm OK with giving eddie credit for effort expended and letting him skim 50 pages.

I vote 55, he's pretty cool.

We need a poll.

FT...let the record show that the motion shall be declared as passed after recording a properly filed declaration by council member jojo69 and seconded by council member Hueristic.  50 to 55 page credit issued without predudice. Next!

----------

HOLD THE PRESS!

This just in folks..rumors of a surprise return of the Mayor has town out in mass. I will see if he is available for a interview.  In a completely unrelated topic..reports of intermittent crying and several loud Hallelujah's was said to have been heard near the blast doors of the Observer control room. We cant substantiate these completely unfounded rumors at this time...but stay tuned.

we talking BTC nodes here or lightning?

I was just trying to get a count of WO members who ran their own nodes, with or without Lightning.

A bitcoin node and a lightning node (no channels open).

^That's a pretty sweet hack.  Any idea where I could find a bucket large enough to submerge my car?

Apparently you can roll it in a makeshift pool. Smiley

I will no longer be discussing that scamcoin Bcash in this thread. This isn't the give Bcash undeserved limelight observation thread nor is it two desperate Bcash fanboys and wall observation users fight.

Fuck Bcash, fuck Ver, fuck Jihan, fuck Craig and I feel sorry for all the fools who have drank the koolaid and sold bitcoins to buy these scam tokens and now need to imagine a fantasy land where they made a decent decision.

Fuck it.

Pussssssssssayyyyy
