- CTV does not allow bitcoin blockchain to be used as storage
- CTV will benefit layer 2 solutions: lightning, sidechains, spacechain etc.
- Every L2 is dependent on L1 and soft forks could improve things that benefit both
There are a few emails with information that could be interpreted in a wrong way on this mailing list related to CTV or creating contentious environment. I had expected better things from bitcoin developers. This is not just the opinion of someone who supports CTV but even people who are trying to read things and form an opinion: https://nitter.net/NicolasDorier/status/1518407535480705024
I am sure there are lot of positives if we look at things differently and will end the email on a good note:
You might like Jeremy or hate him, however he took some real efforts in working on CTV, Sapio etc. and even if BIP 119 never gets activated his contribution in bitcoin covenants will always be appreciated.
