I think it's worth pondering the different things we may want in
future, even if that future is quite far out, just to ensure we have a

things we might possibly want I would like to solve a few boring problems
that we have right now.
Absolutely critical:

attacks. We need a payment prot
I've been thinking about the requirements for a payment protocol
lately. It seems we have consensus that we need one of these. Pieter
