RE: Breaking the ethos of Bitcoin: avoid the Alby and GetAlby Project

in Value 4 Value • 2 months ago

I'm getting used to this kind of reveal happening where a centralized structure, a "benevolent dictator" you can say, suddenly decides to not be so benevolent for some reason. I actually am grateful they are doing this so I can avoid lightning in the future.

My understanding of the lightning network is that it caches transactions to submit to the bitcoin blockchain periodically. Is there any way for V4V to do this instead of relying on lightning to do bitcoin transactions?

I haven't read your critiques of their method. Is it possible to compete by creating a better one? Or, is V4V already that?

    Lighting is much bigger than that, can't go into it in a comment I've written reams about it.

    The best that can be said of Lighting is that VC will spend a ton of money capturing it and gateway like @v4vapp will sneakily use their investment to interface through.
