An audience member from last weeks Twitter Spaces about how BIP300 supporters can help bring Drivechain come to fruition. Let's brainstorm a few ideas together: 🧠🌩️ 1. Tweet Your Support or Write a Note via #Nostr with the hashtag #Drivechain. The awesome devs at L2L have created a "Friends of Drivechain" page that lists public figures that are vocal about their support. 😌📢 Have a look, get inspired, and if you feel emboldened, click "Tweet Your Support!" 🙋‍♂️🙋🙋‍♀️ https://layertwolabs.com/friends 2. Memetics Shockingly, some bitcoin folk dislike Drivechains😅. Some are confused, some will be big supporters, and some are just mad! They make a lot of memes, and though they're usually not funny, quantity can sometimes beat quality. Fire up MSpaint and show 'em how to do it! 3. Send your Hashrate ⛏️ to Luxor Mining Pool whos CEO who has come out publicly as a supporter for Drivechain.

4. Self education Probably the most time-consuming yet crucial thing you can do, not just for others, but for yourself, is truly understand the impetus, the mechanics, and the potential paradigm shifting impact of Drivechain. Link dump in the next tweet for great resources: Paul's blog (very academic and highly technical):

Our site (more approachable, still dense): https://layertwolabs.com/faq A fan site (a mix of both):

And of course, you can find Paul's direct contact information on his blog.

Answering Objections to Drivechain \ stacker news

Objection 1: Drivechain introduces new costs to miners Example argument: “DC node = more validation costs = higher minimum requirement for profit...

While the vast majority, even 99%, of alt coins might be of dubious value, there is still innovation to be found and had in that remaining 1%. Let's look at some projects that #Bitcoin will absorb when #Drivechains are activated: ZSIDE (Zcash Clone): Bitcoin will become truly private. With ZSIDE, transaction details like sender, receiver & amount get a cloak of invisibility. ETHSIDE (Ethereum Clone): Drivechains will fuse Bitcoin’s strengths with Ethereum’s flexibility. ETHSIDE seeks to end the BTC vs ETH rivalry by borrowing the best from Ethereum. BITNAMES (Namecoin Clone): Own a digital name like 'EdwardSnowden.bit'. It's like having a unique digital signature that no one can take unless you sell it. This is an idea that Satoshi once toyed with! THUNDER: Imagine onboarding billions to Bitcoin swiftly! Thunder will scale Bitcoin through geographically-segregated sidechains. BITASSETS: With BitAssets, think trading shares or assets without clogging the main Bitcoin blockchain. It’s like ICOs & NFTs but without the blockspace fuss. TRUTHCOIN/HIVEMIND: Paul Sztorc's personal project, Hivemind, is a system aiming to reshape information flow and bring efficiency to markets. LITERALLY ANYTHING YOU IMAGINE: When Drivechains are activated, innovative minds won't need to ask for permission. They'll be able to leverage the computational power of Bitcoin and their own creative spirit to push Bitcoin to true global dominance. What will you make?

What is Merged Mining? Merged mining refers to the process where miners can mine two or more blockchains/sidechains simultaneously without having to split their computational power. One of the most cited examples of merged mining is between Bitcoin and Namecoin. Namecoin, being a smaller network, benefited from the security provided by Bitcoin's massive mining power while Bitcoin miners enjoyed extra rewards from Namecoin without any added effort.

Did you know? Merged Mining, a core component of Drivechain, was introduced by Bitcoin's creator, Satoshi, in 2010. Drivechain introduces a new proposal called Blind Merged Mining. Blind Merged Mining (BMM) allows miners to mine a sidechain, without running its node software.

Drivechain: Everything on Top of Bitcoin 🌎⛓

What is a #Bitcoin #Sidechain? A Bitcoin sidechain is an independent blockchain that can securely transfer bitcoins internally and from/to the Bitcoin network without supporting a money token different from Bitcoin. Bitcoin sidechains allow the vast majority of the innovation to take place on the Bitcoin network. Sidechains become a testing ground for new ideas and experimentation enabling more functionality for bitcoiners.

An Introduction to Spiderchain

A review of the latest layer 2 protocol proposed for pegging bitcoin to a sidechain.

#Drivechain is a combination of two BIPs which allows for the creation of decentralized 2-way peg to move BTC between mainchain and a sidechains. 1) #BIP300 (Hashrate Escrows) 2) #BIP301 (Blind Merged Mining) The #BIPs can be found here:
