Yeah I hear you, but I don't think sacrificing epic sovereign tech to onboard a few NPCs is really worth it(Braiins' approach to lightning payments)

It's really LND that you should be complaining to about their lack of BOLT12 support. Or maybe WoS or whatever lightning wallet you're using.

I think true Heatpunks like myself just accept the reality that it's hard to build on lightning and I'm willing to fill the gap by putting in some effort ony end.

I see where you are coming from. I can set it up technically, that’s not an issue. I have had nodes before and channels setup.

What I believe though is that home mining is the future for many reasons. We cannot use L1 payouts for that, especially in the future. To onboard home miners, to scale on that front, it needs to be as effortlessly as possible to get paid on an L2+.

Larger mining corps will always exist, but I do think with the proper products coming onto the market (look at the Canaan mini3, it’s brilliant) and good/easy user experience, home mining can grow to 50% of the hash rate. But not with this L2 payout experience.

I love Bitcoin and what it stands for, but in this world financial anonymity is not realistic. It would be wise for ocean to offer other forms of L2 payout.

Ocean already offers "L2" payouts in the most sovereign way possible....BOLT12 Lightning. What more could you ask for?

Do you think that LN URL and Wallet of Satoshi are an "L2"

Also if the Cannan Mini3 has an ROI of infinity under most electric prices/intermittent use cases. But I'm glad they took a stab at the Hashrate Heating market.

It’s the best home miner out of the box currently. Efficiency is pretty good at 20j/th. For sure, consumer electricity prices are pretty bad. I use it to warm the office and we have solar. Will definitely buy another one for the living room. Turn off the gas.

Cool, just realize that you would almost certainly make more sats by running the gas and buying Bitcoin.

But I get it, there are reasons to mine other than pure profit. Mining is fun!

Oh I know. I’m just doing it for hash rate decentralization.
