sadly @boltfun_btc is not alive anymore, but at least @BitcoinMagazine kept some of their content alive by directly copy/pasting some of their FAQ. Clearly bear markets are tough since they can't even check the copy they stole

2/2 Then they came for the AI developers, But I thought machines were too complex anyway, so I didn't speak up. Then they came for me, And by that time there was no one left to speak up.

1/2 First they came for the privacy advocates, But I believed I had nothing to hide, so I didn't speak up. Then they came for the Bitcoiners, But I never invested in bitcoin, so I didn't speak up.

Today’s release is an enormous achievement for the LND developer community, and the Lightning Network as a whole! Simple Taproot Channels not only bring about the multi-year long privacy improvement dream of co-op channel closes being indistinguishable on-chain from single-sig spends, they also lay the foundation for so much future LN development: 💸 Taproot Asset channels for stablecoins on LN 🤓 Point Time Locked Contracts (PTLCs) for even greater privacy, plus enhanced programmability 🔑 Increased multi-sig capabilities for more flexibility in key management and ownership And so much more!! Excited for future cross-implementation compatibility and the merging of the BOLT extension into the formal spec. ⚡️⚡️
Today we're excited to release LND 0.17: Tapping into Taproot! 🥕 Featuring: Simple Taproot Channels enabling a lower cost and more private LN 🔮 Faster Neutrino syncs for mobile development ⏩ More efficient Watchtowers 🗼 Read more and upgrade today: lightning.engineering/posts/…
