Lightning inherits the incentive dilemma that shitcoins highlighted against Bitcoin Since it is truly decentralized/disintermediated and "just works" as money, the profit motive skews towards something else or "new" Enter fake L2s, shitcoins 2.0, affinity scamming as Bitcoin

The app that started the op_return/filter drama by abusing Bitcoin storage is a fake L2/eth-lite VM It and others have been invited by covenants talk. Barbarians at the gate. The same covenants Knots supports, Knots and Bithereum Luke are controlled opposition.

Nostr-based static CLINK Offers, now with Blinded Paths on LND Per an excellent question about CLINK Offers privacy vs. that of Bolt12, I took a few minutes this morning to rough-in support for blinded paths in our reference server and wallet. You can see here that the CLINK static offer code is fetching invoices over nostr, not dodgy onion messages, that leverage these blinded paths. The Bolt12 astroturf crowd has long lied about its privacy advantages as blinded paths exist outside of it's context. If you've been waiting for LND to finish implementing Bolt12 to use this privacy feature with static offers, you're now way ahead of the game as CLINK Offers are a far more flexible, performant, reliable, and web-friendly alternative.

It is a great day for Nostr and therefore the world, @Stacker News has pushed CLINK integration I wrote up a quick guide on attaching your nostr offer and nostr debit
