A coinpool is a type of bitcoin L2 that allows multiple users to deposit funds into a multisig, in such a way that they can withdraw their deposit without needing any additional trust assumptions beyond bitcoin's standard ones (e.g. that miners won't do a 51% attack)
While a user's funds are in the pool, the user can *also* spend "partial" amounts of their deposit, in such a way that it’s not possible to tell from the blockchain which pool user spent the funds
My implementation has a few extra features: (1) every pool member can send and receive money via lightning (2) and/or via hedgehog (3) inside the pool, all transactions are free (4) thanks to hedgehog's support for asynchronous payments, you can send someone money even if they are offline, and if *you* go offline, they can still take the money you sent them
