It would be great to get someone smart to explain the difference or why specifically Floresta is good? I see some excitement around it, but I also have no knowledge in this space.

reply

it's good because utreexo is good.

it solves mempool spam issue, makes the op return wars irrelevant, and basically solves scaling for bitcoin.

You still cannot be bother attaching a LN wallet to Stacker News.

Many are following your example boycotting use of the LN here on SNs.

Do you feel proud of being such a blatant hypocrit and promoting the debasement of the SNs BTC LN V4V circular economy?

Very cool! How does it compare to neutrino? I see the approach is completely different but would appreciate some highlights.

reply

We will have to see it in practice. Neutrino is good only on good and reliable networks. The global south is kinda fucked using neutrino peers from other regions.

reply

Isn't it orthogonal?

I mean couldn't neutrino and electrum both separately use utreexo?

I guess libfloresta implements electrum just because it has more adoption.

reply

Unless you run your own full node serving the neutrino filters there's still an element of validation trust, Utreexo/Floresta is actually validating.
