You can’t control out of band payments in any way whatsoever, to suggest you can is silly, imo.

CTV doesn’t “enable smart contracts” in some elaborate way that isn’t already possible. Lightning is a “smart contract,” multisig is, atomic swaps are. What you describe is a completely generic idea and is 100% possible right now with all the op codes we have. CTV does not suddenly make a shitcoin trading empire possible where it wasn’t before, it literally formalizes, simplifies, and removes multiple interactions needed to do many of the same things we are doing *already.*

Multisig doesn’t scale to large groups because everyone has to be present. All CTV does is make it so parties can make changes independently and without constant cooperation and synchronized signatures from every single party.

So I disagree with the whole framing. It doesn’t make any sense in the context of what the tool is.
