Jay Berg - The original sin was not merging OP_CTV (BIP-119)

Show Notes

During the Blocksize Wars we actually agreed on ONE thing: OP_CTV (BIP-119). It was safe, audited, and would have given us covenants in 2018. We punted. That was the original sin. Now we bolt covenants on top of Ordinals and drive-chains. And Full RBF still kills zero-conf, so your coffee payment needs Lightning or a custodian. Merge BIP-119. Let Bitcoin be money again.
