We could also consider not adding a new Currency variant, but if we just kept Currency::BitcoinTestnet we wouldn't be able to make this mapping back to Testnet4.

We already kinda cant, though? If someone reads an invoice with the tb prefix they'll get a Currency/Network of testnet, which won't map to tn4.

Okay, so what resolution do you suggest then? Opening a spec PR for a new BOLT11 prefix for Testnet4? As I mentioned below I was close to do this, but refrained so far as I thought the idea was that Testnet3 eventually is just superseded by Testnet4 and goes away. But maybe it's the easiest solution here, though we'll need to double-check that other impls are onboard with it ofc.

Yea, I dunno, its definitely awk either way. We should at least explore it at the spec level, I imagine, but we can also map Testnet4 to Currency::BitcoinTestnet for now so that you can build an invoice from Network::Testnet4?

is this what other implementations are doing? would be a shame to lose the one-to-one mapping

AFAICT yes. BOLT11 speaks about 'testnet' overall, without a specific version. I considered a PR to introduce a change specific to Testnet4 (e.g. tb4), but given that Testnet3 is supposed to eventually go away it could make sense to reuse the same prefix?

Not sure how this was handled during previous testnet upgrades though.
