General Protocols

Bitcoin wasn’t meant to be an asset class. It was meant to be cash. Somewhere along the way, that changed… and BCH was the response. Mini short: youtube.com/shorts/xm8dta5…

Most crypto wallets today are unsafe. You’re trusting others, signing things you don’t understand, and reading pure crypto gobbledygook. XO flips it with clear, human readable transactions. Built-in logic. Trusted templates carry the rules for you and that’s how you reach a billion users. youtube.com/shorts/WgjPqk2…

Even Bitcoin had an inflation bug. That’s why auditability matters. Mini short: youtube.com/shorts/suvECGf…

Overcollateralized BCH loans allow lenders to deposit BCH and earn interest while borrowers unlock liquidity without selling their coins. Borrowers lock more BCH as collateral than they receive, ensuring lenders always remain protected. For businesses or long term holders, it can be a way to access liquidity without triggering capital gains events. youtube.com/shorts/icONQ3G…

General Protocols Spaces 56 is now out, exploring how the XO vision is moving from ideas to real infrastructure. The discussion looks at the technology behind XO, the progress being made across the XO Stack, and what it takes to turn peer-to-peer cash tools into something people can actually use.

Money should move as freely as we do. No banks. No borders. Just peer-to-peer cash. Welcome to XO...

The breakthrough behind CashFusion was realizing that perfect matching amounts are not required for strong privacy. As @im_uname explains, as long as the inputs and outputs can combine in many possible ways, the anonymity set remains huge. That insight removes the change problem and makes privacy far more usable. youtube.com/shorts/MubDouq…

Building complex crypto products is expensive... The AnyHedge library alone is about 268KB of code and took a huge effort to develop. As @monsterbitar explains, XO templates (@XO_bitcoincash ) could cut the cost of building systems like this dramatically. Lower development costs mean more experimentation, more products, and a much better chance of investment and innovation. youtube.com/shorts/a_R4I4n…

General Protocols Spaces 55 is now out, exploring what consensus actually means in a decentralized system. The discussion looks at how networks reach agreement, enforce rules without central authority, and why consensus is essential for blockchain security.

Most crypto still runs on hidden trust. You trust the website because it looks reputable. As @EmergentReasons explains, that model centralizes power around a few platforms. The real breakthrough with @XO_bitcoincash is shifting trust away from websites and into open, verifiable templates. When trust lives in code, not brands, decentralization finally becomes real. youtube.com/shorts/ogk6BZQ…

Industry-wide, crypto has regressed. The public perception has been poisoned by scams and “number go up.” Even insiders think that’s what crypto is. Is it? youtube.com/shorts/QRNSKNO…

Traditional smart contracts commit to a hash in the output and store logic in the next input. The P2S proposal suggests opening outputs to allow more expressive code directly on-chain. @im_uname explains that concerns around privacy and UTXO bloat are real, but the proposal argues this does not meaningfully worsen these concerns either... youtube.com/shorts/3KUeQWv…

Bitcoin Cash just keeps leveling up. Full-featured VM. Real scaling roadmap. Serious engineering. youtube.com/shorts/txyUAVn…
