Anyway p2sh and the multi-sig support and such is far more significant protocol level stuff than the modest proposals to better support sidechains. If all that stuff doesn't turn Bitcoin into 'Funny Money' (note the capitalization appropriate for religious-tinted dogma) then I don't know what does. That didn't kill Bitcoin. I myself was actually concerned that it would, but not for phony-baloney economic reasons.

huh? why would you think multi sig would be a threat?

I didn't say 'threat'. I said 'funny' in the context of how money normally works. Contrast it to 'sound'.

I had some concerns that the added complexity would produce attack modes that nobody anticipated. So far it has not seemed to...unless one has some absurd idea that sidechains are a threat and some of these mechanisms might be used to facilitate federations and such.

you don't think SC's are vulnerable to attack? how does that help Bitcoin? but also how does forcing a choice btwn corpGovCoin and PaypalCoin help any of us?
