Boltz uses liquid for swaps
That's not enough to call it scaling solution.
I wouldn't have my money in it for more than 24 hours, and pf course it's not "The backbone of the global financial system of the future."
About the proof of work thing, you can look at all the other references made in the whitepaper and suspect that any of those people are Satoshi as well.
Satoshi made an incredible trustless thing on his own with all the available tools he had at the moment, Adam couldn't make something that scaled Bitcoin trustlessly with millions of dollars and a team of engineers.

I’m not saying Adam invented bitcoin.
I’m saying he invented proof of work which Satoshi incorporated.
Have you seen the email correspondence between Adam and Satoshi?
reply
Yes, I have, I've been obsessed with Bitcoin as much as any other bitcoiner for years, but I'm failing to understand what does it have to do with anything.
reply
You’re the one who wrote Adam is not Satoshi.
You brought it up.
I never said Adam invented bitcoin

Because it is one thing that people use to justify Liquid as an "L2" as if being "ethical" was some kind of silver bullet that will justify all technical shortcomings and bogus claims.
reply
Ethical in what context?
I don’t understand what context you are referring to
Are you implying that Adam is not technical and lacks credibility?
reply
In the context of Laser Eye Maximalism or Saifedean and Saylor apologism.
Liquid doesn't have a native token and it doesn't run on Ethereum, so it's "ethical" because it doesn't do the so called "FIAT things".
Those are the claims I've hear some people say to justify Liquid as a scaling solution when its as much of a Layer 2 as Base is to Ethereum.
