Our boss gave you a 10k word thread on vaults this weekend. 🧡 If you were busy frolicking and didn't read it (like us), here's a shorter explanation of vaults with lots of emojis:

Replying to @revaultdev
@revaultdev was--still is, one of the most interesting novel Bitcoin products I've ever seen. It breaks my soul watching literally every institution and big service provider in the space converging within a handful of mega custodian honeypot, when people like Kevin and @Wizardsardine actually worked to fix the hard problems, the right way, and factually ship and see no traction, even from the most "hardcore Bitcoiner" companies. Yes, it required some very complex engineering, but they pulled off a real vault design, without covenants, and nobody cared. I don't think vaults move the covenants needle significantly.
Me, seen as a vault hater. Also, me, launched the first on-chain Bitcoin Vault company, full open-source novel architecture and "working" product, built with Miniscript (in 2020 ffs, no hardware nor Core support back then!). I believe my opinion counts a little bit, and I don't think I'd have spent years of my life doing this if I didn't want vaults. I'm not the market though.

liana is doing amazing things with miniscript. revault is my spirit animal. @mercury_wallet uses a really cool MPC scheme plus mainstay (*the* coolest way to anchor to bitcoin) to do statechains (digital opendime) I'm using github.com/LLFourn/secp256kf… for musig2 signature adapter

If any large exchange or custodian feels like working with us on a @revaultdev deployment, ping us :D But yes, it's a complex infrastructure to maintain.
I tried to bring covenants to several companies I worked for. In the end they're just too complex. You really need three wallets instead of one, and additional state management. Long term I think we'll get them but I'd like to see @revaultdev succeed commercially first.

Introducing Liana, by @Wizardsardine . A new type of Bitcoin wallet built around Miniscript: it feels like any wallet BUT it has a big difference: you have a recovery path after you stop moving funds for a while. What does this mean, practically? -> backups -> inheritance 1/n
