Oddbean new post about login | logout "Liquid is not that different than a fedimint or an ark. All of these solutions are trying to share the cost of a UTXO." - @Roy from @Breez_tech explains some similarities and differences between Liquid, Fedimint and Ark https://m.primal.net/KbtW.mp4
The difference between @blockstream Liquid and Fedi seems to have more to do with how a token (vUTXO or an eCash token) can be transported. A eCash token doesn't need a network connection to work, Liquid does. But in terms of trust both systems, Liquid and Fedi are similair.
Eventually, perhaps we see interoperable ecash between BTC and LBTC. I would assume there is nothing preventing liquid ecash.
Veo muchos proyectos que están sacrificando la seguridad quee ofrece Bitcoin por conveniencia para recibir pagos, ya que ven que usar Lightning tiene fricción. Básicamente ofrecen un sistema para que puedas recibir pagos via LN sin tener canal. Aunque realmente lo que ocurre es que recibes un token (liquid) que no es Bitcoin y que es custodiado por una federación, lo cual está basado en la confianza. Temo que muchos usuarios caigan en estas trampas, por comodidad, ignorancia y ahorro de fees. Bitcoin es seguridad, libertad sin dependencia de terceros. nostr:note1lnn97stvtg30f0jyr3wqzagxj3er57ys7vcqla4k33y602ncqams7c9p9c
This makes sense to me. Everything seems to boil down to how many people need to collude to take your bitcoin. You can compare L2s (and even L1) by comparing the collusion factor and the harm that such collusion might do.
