Help, please make a FEP to help competing bridges sort things out

Bridging protocols is a way of mediating the #geekproblem here is a thread on this thinking Lets talk about the protocol wars

@hamishcampbell

As a way out of this, I have been pushing bridges for a while as they are the lowest common denominator and can be built and implemented “permissionless” to allow people to cross #4opens protocols. “Permissionless” is important as the is no way you would get consensus to do this, without adding much more mess. Technically people codeing the protocols are bussey with tribalism to focus on cross protocol interop… or they would not be building a new protocol

Interesting issue you bring up with the confusern this might bring when people don’t cooperate (and yes they don’t) when people run 2 bridges and bridge twice

Pragmatically, instances can mediate this by blocking bridge instances that dont “cooperate” and host duplicates - would be nice to have some social mod/admin coding for this.
