The main take away I got from this pod hinges on everyone's reliance on Bitcoin Core, and to a smaller extent Knots. We need 100 different Libbitcoin interfaces with the network. Eric is a very knowledgeable guy and his work is invaluable. So heed the warning, SINGLE POINTS OF FAILURE are bad. Everyone looking at robust layer 2 solutions (scaling money is not a compsci reference) might want to check their Presuppositions about a robust layer 1.
Regardless there's no point in convincing people to use one money or another, the results speak way clearer and louder than roadmaps and function adds. If Bitcoin was worthless no one would waste their energy making them, or trading for them, or using them. So, that on its face isn't true. From that framework there are still a multitude of possibilities.
