    You can use lightning with mixes funds. There are ways to move your Bitcoin. The main premise of my comment is that they can't *take away* your bitcoin. But they can take a way you…

    Someone who doesn't have good fiat rails like third-world countries. Or people who just don't want to be part of the fiat system. Or both.

    They are both useful. Monero is a bit more tricky to use, there is no concept of Lightning network, you still have to wait around 7 minutes for the transaction to settle. It's not …

    It is what it is. You have to implement KYC if you want fiat rails. A merchant can't KYC every single person that comes to the store. But you could build a system to eventually ban…

    Stablecoins can be censored. You deposited into Huobi 5 years ago? Banned. Now we keep your stablecoins, thanks for playing. You can't censor Bitcoin.

    I sent a transfer from the UAE to Spain and another one to the Netherlands. They took 5 days and 7 days respectively. The same transfer takes 10 minutes in Bitcoin. You don't do tr…

    > So I'd have a different IP on each network? NO. You will ONLY have to rotate your IP if you join a network in which there is a collision. 1 in 4 million chance. If that happens, …

    No, only once if there is a collision, which is 1/4M

    Indeed, it is a typo of `public key`. What I mean is that your identity is your private key. And no, you won't have a new IP per network. Your IP is `fnv1a(ip || index) when index …

    I think it's too much. I don't feel like I need to justify myself. You can read the code. But anyways, first of all; you can see we run a trading company called Infinite Field ( ht…

    Ah I understand that. Good thing is you dont need to trust me! You can just read the code. And PRs are welcome, and over time more maintainers. You can also fork it. It has MPL-2.0…

    Yeah I run an HFT firm. Apart from that, why does it matter? This isn't finance! But of course, rayfish is NOT production ready. For home servers might be ok. BUT NOT PRODUCTION RE…

    I did gauge that possibility. But iroh is already the library doing the heavy-lifting. So no, I don't think I'll make it a library. It is actually kinda a library now that I have t…

    If you dont like the use of AI dont use it. Very simple. I went from idea (4 years ago) to implementation in 2 weeks.

    Indeed. So what we do is build your ipv4 using private key bits + collision_index. It is not perfect but it has worked in our tests. We'll keep improving it. The collision_index is…

    Yes, you can also do it. VPN is just one of those applications to be honest. Think of it as relaying packets over iroh.
