Still, building independence in from the start is important.<br/><br/>The second key takeaway is that this should be an Electrum protocol extension! That makes life easier for users, (no extra dialog to choose a Century Metadata server) and for wallet devs, who already use the Electrum protocol.<br/><br/>So I read the Electrum protocol spec. It&#39;s restricted JSON-RPC (no \n, except at end). Fairly simple, easy to extend.

DMCA created a ban on white-market copying assistance. The trend was all one-way: copying was harder, monopolies ossified and were further normalized.<br/><br/>Then the AI train drove through and ignored copyright. And, so far, it&#39;s ok. Nobody is going to shut them down, and they&#39;re going to get better at copycatting.

It&#39;s a worthy question, but not one I&#39;m concerned about.<br/><br/>One of my key responsibilities at Blockstream was to build up a team to support CLN development and usage. I&#39;ve done that, and there&#39;s no critical dependency on me any more. I expect new developments to slow for a year while the team fills gaps, but users probably won&#39;t notice, because CLN is entering a phase of refinement, not radical change.<br/><br/>Most of the exciting change happens one layer up now: plugins are really coming into their own, and daywalker90 has plans to rewrite reckless as a &#34;one stop shop&#34; plugin manager, which should really boost the ecosystem. Its telling that my last two big efforts in CLN have been in plugins: payer proofs and repeatpay are both in plugins (coming in 26.09!). <br/><br/>I also have 2400 branches in my git tree; I&#39;ll have scripts and an LLM churn through them all looking for the unfinished/unmerged ones to decide how many are worth exposing to the world for others to finish.<br/><br/>Software is never finished, but this is not my first time handing over major FOSS projects I&#39;ve founded: I consider that doing that well is a key part of maintenance. <br/><br/>My team is ready, and they will continue to make me proud! 2026-05-15T23:19:22Z https://njump.me/nevent1qqsv23lsjh886kea8uv8wr7ytna5x6xkk2q2h780xtqjajra0g6x4uspr9mhxue69uhhxemv9ee82um5vdhhyupwvdhk6tnpw5pzputj2kr2gqkqdtkgrrg50zj942sdc9k848zgd8vhcdgrxmgklrjraerd33 In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqsg4jpak8wn7jrdhmz9f80mkdlpax24wndn5d5whtj4xgxtht6v0ycprpmhxue69uhkummnw3ezumr0wpczuum0vd5kzmp029gftm'>nevent1q…gftm</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>The only on-chain impact I&#39;m considering is OpenTimestamps, TBH.

The place was very modest and they just had a WoS QR code glued to wall. When I told the old woman at the cashier that I wanted to pay in Bitcoin she just told me the amount and trusted me to type that on my phone and trusted that my wallet would know how to convert that into satoshis at a reasonable exchange rate (she didn't know anything about Bitcoin I'm pretty sure).<br/><br/>Can't we make this better? There could exist a device with buttons where she could type the amount like she did with the credit card machines all other customers were using. She would just press the amount there and handed me a QR code to scan with the amount included, and exchange rate conversion done at some server trusted by the restaurant, it could be fully offline.<br/><br/>I'm just saying this because I was amazed by the fact that so many years have passed and I barely hear about these kinds of issues or the solutions to them. Makes me feel that no one is thinking about the problems of grassroot Bitcoin commerce adoption, which is the most important thing. </blockquote> 2026-05-02T01:11:22Z https://njump.me/nevent1qqsdsaxt89fw07p707emgvl40vekv02p9wgl9evyzql730uz8t4pf9qpr9mhxue69uhhxemv9ee82um5vdhhyupwvdhk6tnpw5pzputj2kr2gqkqdtkgrrg50zj942sdc9k848zgd8vhcdgrxmgklrjr3lzw8j In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqsyy5r99agkr20d7r46q7gr94qwj8qaffe8erhmzw8elp9mtr5l7zcprpmhxue69uhkummnw3ezumr0wpczuum0vd5kzmp0y5grrr'>nevent1q…grrr</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>But now I don&#39;t even have to care! 2026-05-01T08:08:34Z https://njump.me/nevent1qqsrnv0jt852hpqydalp77ptxwh5tp0du72gzcy492nl83twjx74wqgpr9mhxue69uhhxemv9ee82um5vdhhyupwvdhk6tnpw5pzputj2kr2gqkqdtkgrrg50zj942sdc9k848zgd8vhcdgrxmgklrjr5t8z5a In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqs04u2pfh3lad6dlt4wwj4zr4ljprwm2xeqdlc7652t0cyqh8vareqpz9mhxue69uhkummnw3ezuamfdejj75escs7'>nevent1q…scs7</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/> <img src="https://npub179e9tp4yqtqx4myp35283fz64gxuzmr6n3yxnktux5pnd5t03eps0elz4s.blossom.band/692a425b55bcf45fefae7ef471794f02ed3f78ada6fe961e3cb283d9e54e7f1a.jpg"> 2026-05-01T06:29:32Z https://njump.me/nevent1qqsrn3hr9w8gu8zp2e5edae48ekpp4wactzslw797wrdcw8s4hq7mlcpr9mhxue69uhhxemv9ee82um5vdhhyupwvdhk6tnpw5pzputj2kr2gqkqdtkgrrg50zj942sdc9k848zgd8vhcdgrxmgklrjr8x6yf4 I&#39;ve been thinking about taking profits from a Sztorc Fork. <br/><br/>I wouldn&#39;t sell someone a lemon face-to-face, even with full disclosure.

That begins the 12 month window to removal.<br/><br/>We&#39;ve long had `xpay-as-pay` for xpay to take over pay commands. Flipping that to default true and running the tests has been eye-opening.<br/><br/>Given our commitment to not breaking users, I&#39;m re-learning things about pay. For example, if you try to pay the same invoice twice, pay &#34;succeeds&#34;, whereas xpay says you&#39;ve already paid. So when acting as pay, xpay needs to do that too.<br/><br/>Mostly, the xpay error messages are much more informative and readable. But in a couple of cases they didn&#39;t use the correct error *code* (eg. There&#39;s a specific one for &#34;route too expensive&#34;) so that&#39;s fixed.<br/><br/>After this, I&#39;ll get back to my new &#34;repeatpay&#34; command and plug-in, which is a higher-level way to deal with recurring offers (an experimental option for now).<br/> 2026-04-26T00:23:51Z https://njump.me/nevent1qqsyf720egqrd92u7y47z6zq8scl62s5dmty5tsv00nryphy7lg5pjcpr9mhxue69uhhxemv9ee82um5vdhhyupwvdhk6tnpw5pzputj2kr2gqkqdtkgrrg50zj942sdc9k848zgd8vhcdgrxmgklrjr0ulf67 In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqs9plslrahvz0mtt4g77tv0wcd6gczdhh7uhgckqvqhsv6kk5m3taqppemhxue69uhkummn9ekx7mp0hlnh4s'>nevent1q…nh4s</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>It&#39;s a threat.

This can be a super-power! But it can also mean repetition, nasty workarounds, and unreviewable code :(<br/><br/>For the BOLT12 payer proofs, I asked it to take my implementation, produce test vectors then compare against Vincenzo&#39;s LDK implementation. There was a bug in the spec around field ordering which this found, and it proceeded to fix my code, adding another complex pass to reorder the fields. Instead I asked it to change the Rust code, and indeed it was much simpler there too.<br/><br/>If I hadn&#39;t caught this, we would and been stuck with a very weird spec and a lot of gratuitous code in every codebase.<br/><br/>So now I need to start emphasizing the joy of simplicity, I guess. 2026-04-06T22:04:41Z https://njump.me/nevent1qqsrhvh96vu698u8gwz9q7yqm3xa94sw6pfjhwxh80xrce4h6yv59gcpr9mhxue69uhhxemv9ee82um5vdhhyupwvdhk6tnpw5pzputj2kr2gqkqdtkgrrg50zj942sdc9k848zgd8vhcdgrxmgklrjrdqsmmx In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqs94329rqswupsp2q8m9wwtfphaz596pz4h2nwhj8fmxaj4j5qg7qgppemhxue69uhkummn9ekx7mp0z7k4pc'>nevent1q…k4pc</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>To be clear, you&#39;re thinking of deriving a second (hardened) key, for which a signature is checked in tapscript, assuming that the keypath spends will eventually get disabled? To do that we need a BIP32 path standard, and get this advice into BIP-0341 instead of the current advice on unspendable script path selection, then get wallets to implement it. <br/><br/>Things which actually use tapscripts need to decide whether they need to do this (is the loss of keypath spend fatal, or merely inconvenient?). This also needs a clear warning: that you should anticipate loss of the keyspend path... 2026-04-04T15:29:00Z
