> orthoganites

Did you just make this up?  I like it.

I don't mind PS either. We need orthoganites. He just beats his own drum a little too much, insisting it produces The True Music and everyone else is hearing impaired.

Things like BIP300 are cool but they'll only be run when other L2s have actually failed

I'm not enough of an insider to opine on specifics, but my vague take is that btc is dominated by two extrema:

a) circlejerking maxis shouting as loud as they can that everything is fine and will always be fine, and any suggestion that something could be a serious problem (e.g., dwindling block reward) is met w/ accusations of shitcoinery and even less coherent replies because btc is inevitable

b) doomsayers who never shut up about how obviously nothing can ever work, and any argument that it's working now is a delusion

Both camps are tedious to me, but I dislike the first camp more, because the second camp is trivially refutable, and thus harmless.  The first camp could be an existential risk.  I appreciate PS for offering concrete diagnoses and proposals.
