Bolt taxi has shotgun KYC. I drove to a bitcoin meetup few days ago with Bolt (former Taxify). All went well until I tried ordering a return ride for about 30km late in the evening. Bolt started asking for face photo and Id which I didn't carry. Would have had an adventure if there was no friend to help me. image

WITNESS DISCOUNT removal. Keep in mind this is from uneducated non dev guy discussing with AI. image Lightning Network – channel‑funding and closing txs are almost all P2WSH/P2WPKH, so their bytes now enjoy the 75 % witness rebate; killing the discount would roughly 4× the on‑chain cost of every open/close, splice, or anchor. Taproot Assets / Taro – each asset issue or transfer commits a Taproot tweak or script revealed in the witness; its fee advantage disappears if witness bytes are repriced, so asset mints/ burns and Lightning‑routed asset swaps get four‑times dearer. RGB – anchors bind a Merkle‑root to Bitcoin inside SegWit (key‑tweak or signature‑to‑contract). The scheme counts on 4 MB‑equiv block room; without the rebate epoch anchors become pricier and block room shrinks to 1 MB, forcing rarer batching or bigger fees. Ark payment pools – mass exit or rebalancing dumps huge Merkle branches into a single witness‑heavy tx; the design’s fee math assumes discounted bytes. Remove the rebate and one emergency exit can exceed the old 1 MB cap or cost 4× more. Bitcoin rollups (Citrea, Rollkit‑bitcoin‑da, Sovryn, …) – batch calldata/state diffs are kept in witness for the cheap 1 WU/byte pricing. Repricing would quadruple data‑availability costs and cut usable block DA bandwidth to one quarter. Fedimint & Cashu – gateways peg BTC in/out through native‑SegWit bc1 outputs and rely on Lightning swaps; removing the discount would raise every peg‑in/peg‑out and liquidity‑rebalancing tx about 4×.
