Tail emission still seems to be self contracting.
If the inflation rate tends towards zero that means mining rewards from emissions become negligible in the long term, so why not have a longer distribution window with a fixed emissions rate instead?

Seems like the LA would be the most “legit” way to get through, I mean Primal is on AppStore after all.
Then there’s the way (web)apps just open the MetaMask app when it dies in the background (or when you need to sign something), but not only would this be ugly and disruptive for the UX, it would also require special treatment from other developers.

Maybe adding FIPS would sweeten the VPN deal? 🤣
Yeah it’s a shame that iOS doesn’t allow stacking App VPNs (you can stack a single app vpn with one personal vpn but that’s a different monster)

2026-05-21 10:44:17 CEST

- reply

I don’t know if Apple has patched the location thing but some apps like Prompt used that to keep alive in background.
Last resort would be running haven from a VPN extension context, that also seems to run in background just fine, probably the most reliable.

2026-05-21 10:42:17 CEST

- reply

Have a look at the Wallet service from Primal, they run it inside the context of a Live Activity, which iOS keeps running indefinitely (so you can zap from other apps using Primal). I’m assuming haven could run from that context aswell.
Another approach would be mimicking Clave, the app itself doesn’t run on background but it wakes up through push notifications, this way you could keep catching up with events even if not running in background and store them.

2026-05-21 10:31:08 CEST

Not exactly, I can open poke the relay from Safari.
Also, there are ways to bypass the background limitation, I wonder if you could borrow some inspiration from Primal or Clave.
