We are all going to end up paying for this. Regardless of what you think of crypto and it’s incredible power usage this just goes to show that side channel payments are going to be really important.

I’m not smart enough to solve it but I do want to sideskirt more obtuse “rules” that shouldn’t exist in the first place.
