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.
