Lnd node. I thought the whole thing was enabled by P2TR. I'm just running simple LN node via RaspberryPi Umbrel, but the idea of USD inbound and then send sats outbound... fuck that!

Yeah I'm confused as to why they have created Standards Type BIPs targeting L1 if it's just enabled by P2TR

Apparently that's most likely a mistake of the current draft of the BIPs, so there shouldn't be any L1 changes.

Yeah I saw that, good news. Although I wasn't thrilled with the answer to the second question, "the base layer can just keep on trucking, as this protocol is implemented as an overlay on top of the base system." makes me 60% confident that there will be no code changes to bitcoin-core because of Tora, and I prefer 100% confidence on this matter.

I was talking to @benthecarman and he said it doesn't require a softfork. I'm not sure about other changes ... but it seemed like it doesn't even require code changes and this is merely a spec for anyone wanting to do such things. 🤷‍♂️ I haven't read the BIP yet.

Why would you be only 60% confident? To me that sounds like a clear answer that the base layer won't need to change, and hence won't change for Taro.
