Yes that's right :) The way modules work in fedimint is awesome! I can't wait to see all the interesting ideas that people come up with!
Some possible modules that I am excited for are:
  • Federated mining pools
  • Ark module for making long term self custody much cheaper with UTXO aggregation (needs layer 1 soft fork)
fedipool is what drew me to fedimint in the first place. Don't understand Ark in the slightest so no opinion there but needing a soft fork makes me hesitant that we'll see anything come of it soon.
Do you have mining experience? I only just starting digging into mining and learning a bit on Stratum v2, but my focus has been primarily fedimint stuffs.

I think Ark is still a long ways away also but it seems like it could be a possible avenue to scale self-custody if the bitcoin community were to come to consensus to soft fork in what it needs.
I don't have any experience with mining, though I would like to learn more about it. I just read through the fedipool discussion and it seems like there are quite a few considerations in making the module.
