Summary:

The email discusses the concept of channel factories, a type of cryptocurrency system. It references the Burchert-Decker-Wattenhofer Channel Factories and the Fulgurite discussion. The email suggests that channel factories will be created after Decker-Russell-Osuntokun ("eltoo") is online, which requires a `SIGHASH_NOINPUT`. The email provides a hierarchy of types for cryptocurrency systems, including blockchain and offchain cryptocurrency systems. The Decker-Wattenhofer system is mentioned as a multiparty option that requires long locktimes on unilateral, while Decker-Russell-Osuntokun is a multiparty option that requires short locktimes on unilateral. The email concludes by stating that the NOctaHub is another offchain cryptocurrency system that allows for nesting other offchain cryptocurrency systems inside it, similar to how Burchert-Decker-Wattenhofer channels work.Although the context mentions an optimization idea for Eltoo discussed in a forum post on bitcointalk.org, the link provided is broken and cannot be accessed. It can be assumed that the post discusses a potential improvement or enhancement to the Eltoo protocol. Unfortunately, without access to the actual forum post, further details or insights into the proposed optimization on Eltoo cannot be provided.
