The reason it exists is that we 1. **NEVER** want to deal with uncompressed keys, that's legacy and should fail hard instead of being tolerated (maybe using the rust-bitcoin type...

This issue was actually created as a result of #145 and related PRs that introduced `MockNetwork` but didn't fully exhaust the possibilities of enhancing our test suite using it. `MockNetwork`...

Yep, imo there are two classes of code: 1. Things we want to get production ready that will interface with users in some form (`fedimintd`, `client-lib`, `ln_gateway`) 2. Things only...

I think there will be different use cases for federated e-cash: * local community custody: no deed for fidelity bonds, you know the people * global, nym-run federations: might add...

I think that's actually the biggest power of federation: sowing dissent over when to exit-scam. If one party proposes too early while others don't want to they will be removed...

bech32 encoding would make the QR bigger. An interesting option would be a custom encoding that compatible with alphanumeric QR encoding that only needs ~5.5bit/char. e.g. `WSS://FM-SIGNET.SIRION.IO:443+WSS://FOO.BAR:443+WSS://TESTMINT.XYZ:443+WSS://TESTMINT.COM:443` ![Screenshot 2022-09-23 at...

> I'm not sure many guardians would want the federation they are responsible for to be joinable by anyone who has the "Federation Code" (think of DoS, Sybil attacks, privacy...

> I was wondering if a fedimint federation could inherit some of the robustness properties of a p2p application so that a minority subset of guardians could temporarily leave (unavailable,...

Yeah, unfortunately naive implementations of authentication would break privacy. We'd need a scheme that authenticates each request but doesn't allow correlation of different requests of the same user but still...

> But this means fedimint would have a hard requirement on Tor or I2P, else that correlation can always be done via IP address of the request. Yes, that's tracked...
