@ITestTwit1 Lightning can be faster, in principle, but at 1-2s finality ckBTC is amply fast. Easier to go BTC --> ckBTC twin and back. Lightning involves locking and other complexities. ckBTC can be used with smart contracts. Both systems are trustless and great in their own different ways

The max theoretical speed of blockchain updates is limited by the speed of light, since light carries messages between nodes over internet fibre. It's slower than you might think!! We need quantum internet https://t.co/Qgy75ppI1w

@BobBodily Something like: ckBTC smart contract [1-2s] --> Lightning smart contract [1-2s] --> Lightning channel [<1s] --> Wallet [merchant is paid in bitcoin] But crypto team needs create design. Using 1 smart contract would be faster

An important discussion about how the Internet Computer | #ICP circulating supply is measured. As usual, seems we are much more conservative than rest of industry, so folks proposing to put on equal footing. https://t.co/KZXIq1ys4c

Circulating Supply Definition
TLDR There is no industry standard for defining circulating supply (CS) and coins can vary drastically on their definition due to particularities of the specific coin. At the time of Mainnet launch, DFINITY chose a complicated and conservative definitionβ¦
@JonPill Fiat is primarily created by lending, so difficult to do (when a bank lends you $1,000, it creates the money from thin air.. on the balance sheet, the cash becomes a liability, and the loan an asset.. this capability is why loans can exceed deposits by orders of magnitude..)

@sowmaler A lot needs to be worked out, but would say that the ckBTC + Lightning extension should collateralize its own channel (e.g. the NNS could buy BTC from a DEX, or something...). So transparent for ckBTC out, but going in would require sending wallet to lock some liquidity.
