An open letter to the community; Coil bids farewell, but not goodbye. Letter and FAQ: coil.com
AN OPEN LETTER TO THE COMMUNITY Coil bids farewell, but not goodbye When we started Coil in 2018, Interledger was only an idea. Over the last five years we breathed life into the technology and sparked a vibrant ecosystem around it. Now it’s time to pass the torch to a neutral body in the form of the Interledger Foundation to steward the future development of Interledger. As part of this evolution, we’ve decided to sunset Coil’s products and development efforts. On February 2, 2023, we will no longer accept sign-ups for the Coil Membership. On March 15, 2023, we will discontinue our service. More detailed information is available in our FAQ. Coil's approach of providing memberships was always meant as a stepping stone to establish Web Monetization as the first open standard for creators and developers to get paid on the Web. In the near future there will be full-featured Interledger wallets powering Web Monetization and many other use cases. ‍ Letter continued on coil.com

Technology may be binary, but its purpose isn't. A decade ago, Stefan Thomas and Evan Schwartz saw that the internet's interoperability principles could transform the movement of money. That vision became the Interledger Protocol (ILP). Watch the story: piped.video/watch?v=oJNFsO3k…

Today’s cloud infrastructure has become a jack-of-all-trades, master of none. Vertical infra/DBs (like @TigerBeetleDB) will become increasingly important for companies to gain a competitive advantage in the cloud. Welcome to the Amplify family, @jorandirkgreef and team! 🐯🪲⚡️
