    Last weekend in Riga, we ran a quiet experiment. To honor the event's cypherpunk traditions, we pulled off the conference's biggest hack. We "hijacked" the PoS system! Attendees paid merchants via Lightning as usual, but something different was happening behind the scenes 👇

    1/ Bitcoin's ecosystem is evolving 🚀 New applications and protocols are emerging to expand what's possible on Bitcoin, yet they all share a critical constraint: expensive interaction with the base layer. What if on-chain costs could decrease with increased network usage? 👇

    There's been tremendous technical progress around Ark, but general understanding still lags behind. While we’ve been quietly building, our own mental model continued to evolve and expand. Today, we're sharing a fresh perspective on how Ark extends Bitcoin's capabilities. 🧵

    1/ Trust-minimized protocols such as lotteries using script have captivated users and researchers since Bitcoin's early days. Today, we're unveiling our Coinflip PoC, an exploration of multiparty contracts on Ark. We think this could be the spark for something bigger... 👾

    After a year inside the Ark protocol, the rabbit hole got way deeper. What started with basic Bitcoin payments and batching has evolved into something much bigger: a complete execution layer. Today we're announcing the next chapter: @arkade_os 🧵
