With seraphis update can monero have ability to work with layer2 solution ?

nikg83[m]: not that I know if

of

there is paymo eprint.iacr.org/2020/1441.pdf but it uses PoW-based timelocks

UkoeHB: Is this being looked into or it’s just a paper for now ?

nikg83[m]: it's just a paper that has been around a while

UkoeHB: I don’t understand much of that paper, does it need change in monero code (some requirement) ? Which can be done during seraphis update ?

I guess we need this paper reviewed once seraphis audits are done

No idea

nikg83: There are at least three papers proposing Monero payment channels. No implementations yet. Payment channels acting as networked 2nd layers have privacy problems that have no known solutions. I'm personally not optimistic on them.

"low tx rates, high tx fees, and long confirmation times" - really?

These are all subjective, so not useful. You can check recent tx rate and tx fees with bc_dyn_stats 1000. Confirmation times are typically around 2 minutes.

(for tx fees, you've got to multiplty the base fee by ~1300 or so, the size of a typical tx)

~1530

looks shady, possible backdoor
