Rather than update the core network to understand the&#xA;&gt; existence of the various Taro assets, instead we plan on leaving the core&#xA;&gt; protocol essentially unchanged, with the addition of new TLV extensions to&#xA;&gt; allow the edges to be aware of and interact w/ the Taro assets. As an&#xA;&gt; example, we wouldn&#39;t need to do anything like advertise exchange rates in&#xA;&gt; the core network over the existing gossip protocol (which doesn&#39;t seem like&#xA;&gt; the best idea in any case given how quickly they can change and the existing&#xA;&gt; challenges we have today in ensuring speedy update propagation).&#xA;&#xA;Adding on to this, the American Call Option problem that arises when using H/PTLCs: https://lists.linuxfoundation.org/pipermail/lightning-dev/2018-December/001752.html&#xA;&#xA;The above objection seems to be one reason for proposing multi-asset &#34;on the edge&#34; rather than have it widely deployed in the published Lightning Network.&#xA;&#xA;Regards,&#xA;ZmnSCPxj</html></oembed>
