You can run on for a long time
Run on for a long time
Run on for a long time
Sooner or later, God'll cut you down
Sooner or later, God'll cut you down

Go tell that long-tongue liar
Go and tell that midnight rider
Tell the rambler, the gambler, the back-biter
Tell 'em that God's gonna cut 'em down
Tell 'em that God's gonna cut 'em down

Well, my goodness gracious, let me tell you the news
My head's been wet with the midnight dew
I've been down on bended knee, talkin' to the man from Galilee
He spoke to me in the voice so sweet
I thought I heard the shuffle of angels' feet
He called my name and my heart stood still
When he said, "John, go do My will!"

Go tell that long-tongue liar
Go and tell that midnight rider
Tell the rambler, the gambler, the back-biter
Tell 'em that God's gonna cut 'em down
Tell 'em that God's gonna cut 'em down

You can run on for a long time
Run on for a long time
Run on for a long time
Sooner or later, God'll cut you down
Sooner or later, God'll cut you down

Well, you may throw your rock, and hide your hand
Workin' in the dark against your fellow man
But as sure as God made black and white
What's done in the dark will be brought to the light

You can run on for a long time
Run on for a long time
Run on for a long time
Sooner or later, God'll cut you down
Sooner or later, God'll cut you down

Go tell that long-tongue liar
Go and tell that midnight rider
Tell the rambler, the gambler, the back-biter
Tell 'em that God's gonna cut you down
Tell 'em that God's gonna cut you down
Tell 'em that God's gonna cut you down

  I don't think this scales well. Does PoW merge mining add anything for a federated system? Seems like Fedimint could accomplish a lot of these things with the right modules if you're federating. Tx costs would be way lower too and you don't need miner coordination. Maybe I'm missing something. Probably should go dig into the code.

Key Features Designed for the Bitcoin Community:
Bitcoin-Pegged Native Asset (cBTC): Users can transact in cBTC, redeemable 1:1 for Bitcoin, offering familiar Bitcoin value and reliability while enhancing flexibility.
‍Compatibility with the Lightning Network: Build Lightning apps with less complex channel logistics and swap directly to Bitcoin.
‍Hybrid Consensus: By combining Bitcoin’s Proof-of-Work and a Strong Federation model, Coordinate ensures reorg-resistant transactions, providing users with enhanced security and stability.
‍Premium Transacting: Coordinate offers MEV-resistant transacting with a reverse auction fee market and finality in about one minute. Premium users avoid fee bumps and overpaying.
‍UTXO Asset Tokenization: Coordinate users can tokenize digital assets using Bitcoin’s UTXO model, opening new opportunities in decentralized finance.
‍Blob Storage for Data-Intensive Applications: Users and developers can leverage expanded block space for data storage, addressing the needs of applications that require additional capacity.
"Part of the goal behind Anduro is to achieve the Drivechain vision without any soft forks. Coordinate is a great example of what else can be done with Bitcoin when you don’t have to worry about impacting the L1 Bitcoin network”

 Cashu and fedimint Ecash is the same.  
 This one specifically is a federated side chain so even self custody has third party risk.  
 Fair.  
 No clue. Liquid also came to mind.  
 How so? It removes trust? 
 Idk if they do, that's why I ask. Minimize trust is a better exactly phrasing.  
 Lol. It's a fork. How does that not change anything for those that donor want it? 
 Soft-forks are inherently constraining in consensus rules.  
 I would have to run URSF. That's impactful.  
 Right. I'm a node runner and I don't want further constraints on consensus that enable drivechains. I am impacted, sir, as are others. Not to mention the technical fallout when normal users seek guidance on what to do. To say drivechains don't impact anything is naive and ignorant, IMHO. Any soft fork has these impacts.

Excellent README 
 What a very interesting day 
 Could you do a zkp of a sequence of nonces (search space) used in a one way function and submit those as hashrate? I imagine a search space conflict/nonce reuse (not security nonce reuse) would be a concern but just for efficiency? But what if you could coordinate with peers? How do you do it all on freedom tech?

I feel retarded. But I'm learning a ton. 
 Game theory podcasts are fascinating. 
Stay humble and stack sats. 🫡

 Welp. Primal just hung so maybe they hate mullvad? 
 Primal always loads super slow for me and most times not at all.

They also state links with note ID's instead of nevent, so non-primal clients don't know where to find the note. Super annoying.  
 I know this now. Primal still doesn't load so idk what to think.
