“We want to build on Bitcoin without changing Bitcoin. The base layer is very, very good - let’s not touch it - and now we finally have Witness Encryption, which allows us to do that.” Authors of newly proposed protocol “Shielded Bitcoin” join me to discuss why L1 ossification won’t slow down progress for Bitcoin, and how PIPEs and Witness Encryption could finally make covenants possible on Bitcoin without a soft fork. Much thanks to Clara Shikhelman (@ClaraShik) and Misha Komarov (@nemothenoone) of [[alloc] init] (@allocinitxyz) for this incredible interview - and the cutting edge research pushing Bitcoin forward.
