This ironic situation is something I’ve been thinking a bit about.
I can sum up my thoughts like this:
- I want freedom
- A few evil people want to limit my freedom in evil ways
- Some good people want freedom for themselves too and are thus willing to join a coalition for freedom to stand against the freedom limiters
- The majority of people don’t care about freedom very much
It seems today the freedom limiters have managed to manipulate the indifferent majority into supporting them and, consequently, are winning. The freedom lover coalition has not been as manipulative (probably out of a misplaced desire to appear congruent). That’s probably why we’re loosing and, like you said, we will have to start influencing the indifferent majority if we want to win.

Sunburn is caused by high energy light destabilizing electrons in the molecules in your cells. Some molecules will become free radicals when hit by uv light. The polyunsaturated fatty acids that make up seed oils are one of these kinds of molecules. The double bonds between carbon atoms in the unsaturated fatty acid will turn into free radicals when exposed to the right frequency of light. Saturated fats do not have double bonds that can be affected this way.
It’s important to note that the body preferentially uses saturated fats when it burns fat, so once you stop eating polyunsaturated fat it’ll take a few years before it’s safe to go out and get a ton of sun.

Oh, you mean if the blocks are full because everyone wants to withdraw at the same time!
Yeah that’s definitely a risk. I guess you’d want to increase the time lock when the number of people in the ark gets large.

2023-06-13 04:14:28 UTC

- reply

It’s their money, if they want to lock it would be nice if they also made a noncustodial ecash style layer two while they’re at it.
I think large bitcoin hodlers like the eos foundation and gbtc are a much bigger systemic risks.

2023-06-13 04:11:16 UTC

- reply

That’s right. There’s no way to steal from you unless you somehow are unable to go online to publish your unilateral redeem transaction.
Of course, in some nightmare scenario where the asp is also 51% of the hashrate, they can steal (by censoring your redeem transaction). This is also true in lightning though, if your channel counterparty happens to also have 51% of the hashrate.

2023-06-13 04:06:57 UTC

- reply

Can you tell me what you think the systemic risk is?

2023-06-13 04:03:23 UTC

- reply

I really think you should read Reuben’s gist again.
While the asp behaves well you just come online to refresh unpublished transactions (just like lightning). Whenever you want (with or without the asp’s cooperation) you can leave ark and get a normal onchain utxo.
If you’re not going to be able to come online for some time you can withdraw onchain then go back in whenever you want.

2023-06-13 03:56:50 UTC

There is no exit scam, if the asp doesn’t cooperate users can withdraw unilaterally

2023-06-13 03:55:59 UTC

- reply

Yes. Also similar to lightning in that it requires that the asp have liquidity. But once it does, it can support a ton of private transactions between ark users with a relatively tiny onchain footprint and interop with lightning in the same way as fedimint.

tldr: the ASP can’t steal, in the worst case, the miners can make a lot in fees

2023-06-13 03:35:36 UTC

- reply

If some people trust the ASP, they can compete to charge a nominal fee to swap vtxos that will take a long time to withdraw for unencumbered onchain utxos

2023-06-13 03:33:43 UTC

- reply

Isn’t it obvious? the federation is custodial. They can just immediately steal your Bitcoin. The Ark service provider can’t (though withdrawing may be complicated lol)

2023-06-13 03:31:39 UTC

- reply

If you’re lucky enough to live through a disaster scenario Ark >> Fedi (at least as far as withdrawing is concerned).

2023-06-13 03:29:20 UTC

Better than Fedi: “In a disaster scenario you never withdraw”

You said “it’s already controlled” all anyone needs to do to see you’re lying is scroll up dawg

2023-06-11 20:30:12 UTC

Fair enough, but you said the government already controlled Bitcoin. That is patently false since it’s perfectly legal to sell commodities for cash peer to peer.
Pro tip: don’t lie

The government outlaws many things. That says nothing about how much it can control them. So again, your initial statement that the government controls Bitcoin was a lie.

I think it was Marcus Aurelius who said “only violate the Law to seize power, in all other circumstances, follow it assiduously”
It’s ok to threaten those in power if it is part of your plan to seize power, but otherwise, this is great advice.

bruh, you can buy bitcoin anonymously with cash

literally just be objective. just reason carefully and tell the truth without caring about your investments. it’s that easy dawg

I think people are probably just making bigger channels with their bitcoin so that they don’t have to pay so much for onchain fees.

Legally false? ok mr. bot esquire.
I’m sure the state wants the documents posted on wikileaks deleted.
If you want someone else to do something for you, it’s better to ask nicely, or pay them. But you have to be willing to live with the fact that sometimes the answer will be no.
