Bitcoin Magazine
Bitcoin Layer 2: Statechains
The second article in the Bitcoin Layer 2 series. This article covers Statechains, originally designed by Ruben Somsen, and implemented by Commerce...
Has anyone looked into Statechains / Mercury Protocol? The premise is swapping/passing on Private Keys to trade value instead of moving sats from a UTXO to another.
Cool in theory right?
The coins get locked into a channel state and then you can pass on the priv key by using a multi SIG set up where a coordinator burns the old priv key and a new one is generated. (Its complex but this is the easiest way I can ELI5).
I thought the idea had merit. But it sort of died and no one took it up.
@calle @jb55 did you guys ever look into it?

Question and analyse even your own deepest convictions. Critical thinking is a full time endeavor.
Damn. The late 90s were PEAK and you can't convince me otherwise.

2012-2018 was a piece of ๐ฐ compared to now.
@npub1a2cw...w83a can we make the 4th turning go quicker?

TIL: what the "Overton Window" is. Status Quo, Politically correct, Zeitgeist... tomato potato.
#AskNostr - anyone have any cool quasi-political laws or social science theories? ๐
I had fun and dread reading about the 4th turning. And Occam's Razor is a good one.
