10 sats \ 0 replies \ @luckysori 2 Feb 2023 \ parent \ on: 10101 - We just published our roadmap bitcoin
Just to clarify: there is no other coin involved, so we haven't created a shitcoin. It's just a mechanism to stabilise a part of your Bitcoin holdings with respect to USD. It's all sats under the hood.
And to your first point, I think giving people the option to do something that they already do (trading) in a way that respects the self-custodial principles of Bitcoin is hardly pushing people towards greed. Whether you like it or not, people will trade with Bitcoin and if they do it on custodial exchanges their funds are always at risk.
I used this as a reference when I started working with Miniscript a few years ago: https://bitcoin.sipa.be/miniscript/. It's very detailed and I'm not quite sure how up-to-date it is, but the section titled "Policy to Miniscript compiler" is interactive and can help you understand how to use it.
One thing that is important to keep in mind is that Miniscript sits in between two other languages: the low level Bitcoin Script, which is quirky and hard to use, and the Miniscript policy language, which is high level and more user friendly. As a writer of Bitcoin contracts you almost always want to work with the policy language. Some have even written languages on top of the Miniscript policy language e.g. Minsc.
Anyway, I think Miniscript is amazing. It made working with Bitcoin Script so much easier for me.
Thanks! I do agree that trading isn't for everyone, so we'll make sure that 10101 is still a great Lightning wallet beyond trading.
We do believe we can make a difference in terms of non-custodial trading, which is why it will be our focus at first. I would say even if you don't consider yourself a trader, 10101 should let you get your feet wet with just a few sats.
Thanks! I've been using it for a while as a reader, but I'm not much of a poster, so I hadn't even created an account haha.
