Thank you, Dan! I wish you the best of luck and much success in your new efforts.
Your post, and recent some recent podcasts that I have listened to discussing new developments for the Lightning network, made me curious if you have an estimate regarding the trend and the amount of investments for bitcoin-only related work that is being done on the secondary layer of the Bitcoin network. I view bitcoin as continuing to benefit from it's superiority (secure network, only crypto that is truly decentralized) and the network effects of miners, node holders (seen by increasing rates of adoption), and entrepreneurs/companies that develop applications to enhance the scalability of the Bitcoin network.
I would think that in a free market, while there has undeniably been a massive increase in the number of altcoins in just the last two years (from around 8k to over 20k), that many smart entrepreneurs such as you, see the massive opportunity to develop solutions/applications to increase the adoption rate exponentially. I know that Jack Dorsey has discussed plans for bitcoin mining, developing an open source wallet using biometrics to make for an easier interface, and Jack Mallers at Strike and also potential new products/services that incorporate the Lighting network (and potentially Taro) and other solutions that may be developed as a result of the recent Taproot upgrade. I would also guess that one of the positive aspects of the institutional interest in the last couple of years in bitcoin, is that at least some of these investors (perhaps Microstrategy or NYDIG or others) would be interested in developing solutions internally or funding developers.
Sorry for the long post. I was just curious with all of these positive developments for bitcoin (regardless of the fluctuation of the price, which is all that the corporate media wants to focus on), have you seen greater interest from entrepreneurs/companies for bitcoin only solutions? Do you know generally how large this is (in number of groups, and size of funding) this represents, and the trend in the past few years?
When will you realize that HEX maximalists are more toxic than BTC maximalists? HEX is a religion. HEX will defeat all other crypto currencies. HEX.com
