primal runs plenty of infra and it is all mit open source
we do not want to be a custodian or kyc our users, like river does, simple
spark is not perfect but it is the best tradeoff balance for our users right now, they can exit at will without permission, and can use any other wallet that supports nwc
if a better option emerges for our users then we will move to that in the future

2026-03-17 16:12:01 UTC

the main tradeoff of the wallet is that lightspark and primal can see all transactions

2026-03-08 00:45:41 UTC

- reply

node numbers are easy to fake, proof of work is not
segwit had overwhelming consensus, bip110 is not even close
your chart leaves out the most likely outcome: bip110 has barely any hash rate at activation, chains split, a small group of miners limp the chain along, while people try to threaten miners to switch to bip110 to reorg the main chain

- reply

> The only risk here is that VC wall st suits scare enough people into doing a URSF and splitting the chain.
nope, if bip110 activates with minority hash rate, which will likely be the case, then there will be a chain split
> there is already enough consensus already
this is so far from the truth its gotta be an intentional lie, only one block has signaled support and it was an ocean investor

2026-03-07 15:24:34 UTC

- reply

it is way too aggressive on restricting taproot, considering inscriptions will still be possible after, if the goal was actually achieving consensus then it probably should just be a cap on op return
the flag day activation, without anywhere near consensus, is reckless and will cause a chain split, would be safer as a hard fork
lot of talk of node counts and the power of node runners, but in practice this is exactly what a centralized mining attack would look like, whichever way the hash goes at activation all non updated nodes follow
for instance, if blackrock and mstr and foundry want to freeze coin in the future, it would probably look like bip110
my default stance on any protocol changes is always no

i have not said it is a "nothingburger"
i have said that it is being blown out of proportion to try to rush through a reckless fork without consensus
concerns with local policy defaults is best mitigated with more implementations, more choices for node runners = less influence by core, simple

bip110 is not about stopping spam.
it wont stop spam.
bip110 is about ego and control for mechanic and luke.
so they riled up a mob to try to push through a hostile fork of bitcoin giving them complete control.
when the fork fails they will try to threaten miners into a chain reorg. reversing thousands of bitcoin payments in the process.
it is an attack on bitcoin and it will fail.
