I made a chart that compares my new Papa Swap protocol with traditional Submarine Swaps. I also implemented the code in the form of a wallet that works like Muun Wallet, but using Papa Swaps. I plan to present my research and demo my code at Bitcoin++ Istanbul. See you there!
Today I wrote a small essay on use cases for coinpools. It is attached.
Note that if you want to *try* a coinpool, I wrote a publicly-available implementation for testnet. I recommend watching my video demo before trying it.

Implementation:
I am working at a library in Iowa where they appear to block traffic to mempool.space. Very annoying. My current project is a web wallet gets utxo data from mempool.space, so I have to run it in a tor browser to make it work.
I have identified 3 c++ devs who intentionally work on Knots:
1. Luke Dashjr (x.com/LukeDashjr, github.com/luke-jr)
2. Retropex (x.com/leo_haf, github.com/retropex)
3. Bigshiny90 (x.com/bigshiny90, github.com/bigshiny90)
Anyone else? I hope at least 15 people do so.
