I feel like Taro is very under-understood, under-appreciated and under-hyped. It's much more than another Lightning Labs feature w a curious name or even just "tokens on Lightning".

It could potentially shake things up big time in how the whole crypto industry works:

Mempool update time!

First an underreported piece of news:

Bitcoin payments per day hit an all-time-high* in the past weeks, higher than the peak of the previous bull run.

1/ For Bitcoin’s birthday tomorrow, I wish for crypto Twitter to look outside. Outside, Bitcoin has MASSIVE mindshare. NONE of the other concepts we discuss here come close. Google Trends is a good tool for gaging outside interest, so buckle up and follow me down the rabbit hole. 2/ First the big one: Bitcoin is 5-10x bigger than ANY of “blockchain”, "ethereum", "tokens", "crypto", “ico”, "ripple", even "fintech”.
