Drivechain aim to minimize the need for trust by relying on Bitcoin miners to validate and merge mined sidechain blocks. This way, they leverage the immense hashpower of the main Bitcoin network. The idea is to "drive" the sidechain security through Bitcoin's PoW consensus. And sidechain can leverage smart contract technology to achieve two-way pegging, enabling high throughput while ensuring user asset control. So it’s time for 'Plasma' & 'NOCUST'…

We could think of a possible eradication of shitcoins. It’s very likely with the drivechain.. https://fiatjaf.com/95b92312.html View quoted note →

You're describing merged mining here, not drivechains. Drivechains increase the need for trust by giving custody of sidechain funds to miners no strings attached

Thanks for enlightening me more on that! However, I thought this could be an effective component to drivechains. There’s really a difficulty in untangling & articulating two types of scalable representations, some merged, others attached to the custody of the funds of sidechain, in particular complementary & based on a soft guarantee.
