I think developers already have a big say in things, and they might not be completely neutral about the project. So, trusting them with something like that is not a good idea.

For it to seem somewhat trustworthy, it should sample a wide range of people so that their interests never align.

Liquid is not a scaling solution

benthecarman

I've been thinking a bit about the non-global-south fedimint federations. If we were to embrace fedi instead of liquid at some large scale then surely all the federations aren't going to be extremely-trusted-in-meatspace community leaders. We need to find some liquid federation-like fedi trust solution for 'the masses.'

What if it were something like the very top bitcoin devs making a large fedi federation together? People who would harm their existing life's work if they rugpulled... How many people like this can we put in an M-of-N federation inside fedi? I might trust that very much.
