Episode description
John Carvalho, Founder of Synonym joins me to talk about Slashpay and SlashTags, an ambitious attempt to dramatically smooth the process of exchanging bitcoin addresses or lightning invoices. What kind of things does this enable? We discuss:
- Competing standards in Bitcoin
- How it would work
- Updating and revocation of SlashTags
- What other things are enabled by this public keypair approach
- Why not use a blockchain
- Putting tether USD on lightning
