Bob reveals BobSecret on the channel, Alice uses BobSecret to claim the on-blockchain 2.5BTC, everyone's square 21:45 < go1111111> aj: cool, that does indeed seem better. what are your thoughts on this the general idea with that improvement? 21:46 < aj> go1111111: not sure; i think you still need minimal malleability fixes (BIP 62), same as rusty's dual anchor does 21:48 < aj> go1111111: seems like it reduces blockchain fees in the event of failure which would be good; no worse in the event of success i think? 21:49 < go1111111> yeah, if Rusty's solution needs BIP 62 then it seems this would too. I gotta read up on BIP 62 and more of the details of LN.. 21:51 < aj> go1111111: i think bip 62 solves malleability as long as none of the signers try re-signing; without bip62 a random miner can break things 22:01 < CodeShark> wasn't the idea of the improvement that it allows outsourceability of anchor escapes? 22:01 < CodeShark> not whether it requires BIP62? 22:02 < aj> ...good point 22:03 < go1111111> yes.. the core idea is just the thing to allow outsourcability. i had been describing it here and on bitcointalk as not needing BIP 62 bc I incorrectly thought it didn't, but that doesn't really matter 22:08 -!- akrmn [~akrmn@chello062178125026.3.13.vie.surfer.at] has joined #lightning-dev 22:09 < aj> go1111111: sure seems like it works 22:09 < CodeShark> neat 22:10 < CodeShark> good job guys :) 22:14 < CodeShark> there's something to be said for making the asymmetry explicit rather than pretending it doesn't exist ;) 22:16 < CodeShark> whereas rusty's proposal tries to impose symmetry from the outset 22:18 < CodeShark> it's using a secret for an anchor escape that makes it not outsourceable - but in this proposal, the secret is revealed in the initial negotiation 22:22 < go1111111> thanks :). first ever contribution to bitcoin (if it stands up to scrutiny). thanks aj for reviewing and improving it. 22:22 < go1111111> btw how many people are spending significant time working on LN now? and do we know if anyone at companies like coinbase are working on it? 22:22 < go1111111> all i know is Rusty is full time on it.. 22:22 < CodeShark> coinbase isn't exactly known for cutting-edge innovation 22:23 < CodeShark> they have a lot of cash...but they seem to be basically grabbing all their insights from outside the company 22:24 < CodeShark> they've done a decent job of essentially reimplementing a paypal that also can plug into cryptos and not just fiat :p 22:27 < CodeShark> it seems that the more funds companies receive in this space, the less they innovate. blockstream seems, so far, to be an exception...although I'm still wondering how they plan to monetize ;) 22:28 < go1111111> well, just implementing what Rusty & others here come up with and throwing some marketing behind it seems like it'd be really good for both their business and bitcoin. 22:29 < CodeShark> I'm still not sure what the "business" really is. I love basic research and all, don't get me wrong...but wasn't it VCs that funded it? and aren't they looking for an ROI? 22:32 -!- rusty [~rusty@pdpc/supporter/bronze/rusty] has joined #lightning-dev 22:32 < aj> hey rusty 22:32 < go1111111> it's perhaps the "the team is the most important thing" theory of VC investing. most likely they're looking toward the ideas that will come later from having all these people in one place 22:33 < rusty> aj: hello... 22:33 < rusty> Hmm, botbot.me still haven't responded to my request to add #lightning-dev... 22:33 < CodeShark> hi rusty 22:37 < rusty> CodeShark: hi! 22:37 * rusty falls behind on his lightning-dev mail... 22:38 < aj> rusty: go111... has an alternative outsourcable malleability-safe (up to bip-62 anyway) anchoring idea 22:40 -!- Janaka-Steph [~Janaka-St@che77-1-82-238-24-26.fbx.proxad.net] has joined #lightning-dev 22:42 -!- akrmn [~akrmn@chello062178125026.3.13.vie.surfer.at] has quit [Ping timeout: 265 seconds] 22:43 < go1111111> rusty: curious if you can see any flaws. in case you don't have the logs: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1134319.0.
