If this comment raises a million sats i'll vibe code a similar platform that uses OpenTimestamps and WebTorrent and call it Shitrea

Im almost tempted to zap you this 1M to see if you will really do it

lol, I had to think carefully about the amount to make sure it was high enough to be unlikely but low enough to bait some zaps... i'd probably get way more into it than I have time for

be careful... Justin is a very determined guy...

Want to see if he is THAT determined! If I get a boatload of sats I may have to see if he is truly a man of his word

OpenTimestamps is not a solution for the problem Citrea is facing. They need a proof-of-publication: proof that data was widely published.

OpenTimestamps just doesn't solve that problem, and fundamentally can't.

Lightning uses this concept too: HTLCs are a proof of publication mechanism too. If they go on chain, the transaction ensures that the pre-image is made publicly available, ensuring the next entity learns the pre-image that they need to collect their funds.

Good explainer...

Do you suppose a hypothetical Shitrea could carry forward the entire history with each update? this would obviously result in bloating itself toward unusability, but for shit shootings sake, do so instead of socializing that cost to the chain?

LOL "shitrea" hahahaha good name!
