Hi ZmnSCPxj, Precisely, something like that is what I had in mind. Since the max message size is 65KB, one option could be to only allow the varint to be max 2 bytes where: - if the 8th bit is not set, the lowest 7 bits of the first bytes translate to 0 - 127 - if the 8th bit is set, this

vector if the tower inherently defends against it. If instead they are just trying to fill up the tower, the cost is linear in the amount of blobs they send. --Conner On Tue, Nov 13, 2018 at 4:12 PM Conner Fromknecht wrote: > > Hi ZmnSCPxj, > > I haven't yet gotten around to writing up ever

Hi ZmnSCPxj, I haven't yet gotten around to writing up everything documenting in the working watchtower design. However, I think we are nearing that phase where things seem mostly solidified and would welcome feedback before attempting to formalize it. Expect some follow up posts on the ML :) >

Good morning all, Taking a step back—even if key switching can be done mathematically, it seems dubious that we would want to introduce re-routing or rendezvous routing in this manner. If the example provided _could_ be done, it would directly violate the wrap-resistance property of the ideal

Hi everyone, I've seen some discussions over losing proofs of payment in the AMP setting, and wanted to address some lingering concerns I have regarding the soundness of using the current invoicing system to prove payments. In general, I think we are ascribing too much weight to simply having a
