Bro. I spent a couple hours looking carefully at this advice. At every turn, it leads to the potential for a solid understanding of how this all works and a commitment to decentralization, self sovereignty and the basic principles of bitcoin from a super-based perspective.

I have a lot to learn.

I didn't expect a response to be so clearly layed out and principled... and it's the only response I got, so I see it as really something magical.

I will start where you've suggested. When I'm running a lightning node and have some bitaxes set up, I may reach back out for advice on next steps (if I haven't given up and if you dont mind). This will likely take me a couple months of hobbying to get right.

Anyway, I just wanted to say thank you again. I gave a follow. You're the man.
