Wen mempool will stop being a MEMEpool for ordinal? 🐶🐾😂😭

Not until ordinal people stop ordinaling 😂
Let it be. Miners are earning good fees, securing the network. We are learning how to use layer 2 tech efficiently.
It’s so hard to do any LN channels without significant loss for node operators. It does affect L2. I can’t open channels or even close some that I want without losing a lot 🐶🐾😭
Keep them open. Use #[3] swaps for going to liquid temporarily if you’re afraid of a force close event. Then swap back to LN or peg out to mainchain when the fees drop.
When or if! Boltz doesn’t help with fees either 🐶🐾🫡
Imagine the fees will not go down in the next 2-3 years. Would you still wait for it? Or start using layer 2 solutions?
Plus you gain privacy and transaction speed by operating at layer 2. I really hope Blockstream solves the peg-out problem and enables Lightning over Liquid.
How do you propose for nodes to open LN channels? I am not aware of any L2 approach that would allow me to do that. 🐶🐾🫡
I run Phoenix wallet on my phone connected to my own electrum server over Tor. Phoenix still charges 1% (min. 3000 sats) for opening a channel. For me that’s still affordable 🤷🏻♂️
I use Boltz to swap into Liquid when needed and then sideswap.io if I need to go to mainchain.
With Phoenix you are at the mercy of ACINQ to not rek your channels
Yes, but never happened to me so far. Some of my channels are 1 year old.
I know it’s not optimal and you’re generally right. All I‘m saying is you can operate under the high fee pressure without big losses.
What r u going to do with a 3000 sats channel?
It’s the minimum fee that Phoenix is charging for opening a channel if you open a 10k sats channels. If you open a >10k channel, the fee is 1%.
So true ...

And it's really a hard time for all the advanced noderunners with big nodes.
FC are really expensive these times.
(Coop openings and closes too of course)
Yes! That’s the thing that pisses me off! 🐶🐾😭
#[2] did a podcast on Taproot assets recently. My understanding is that it provides for on-chain assets without being clumsy to the point of malice like ordinals. Maybe I got this wrong. 🤔

If anything, this shipping to mainnet will make it pretty clear who wants to innovate on bitcoin and who just wants to burn miner fees to annoy other plebs.
