They say:
> To make servers and groups sustainable. As EVM blockchains (Ethereum etc.) added support for zero-knowledge proofs, smart contracts seem a good fit for secure payments for server capacity
And then:
> You can use whatever cryptocurrency you like, but we are not using ETH - we are using EVM blockchain because of the foundation it provides to build a programmable network-wide consensus, like no other public blockchain
The two sentences do not seem to get along very well.
In any case, I ignore the implementation's details, but could someone propose an equivalent solution based on Bitcoin? Or is the model totally flawed and therefore needs to be completely revised (see Nostr)?
It’s sad to see Simplex fall into the tempting smart-contract blockchain token trap.
This is also why Keychat uses ecash sats as postage stamps for messages.
