I'm pleased to say after visiting El Salvador and its circular economy using #Bitcoin , I've convinced myself that Satoshi's vision for "peer to peer electronic cash" has come mostly true.

Lightning Network is far from mature.

On the other hand, it performed tremendously at nostr:nprofile1qqswkhs47p9unc7lsmqsqv9kvh07sf2pq9gurcan4r8r7s524ap0jfclt62u8 and about the country using custodial solutions, much like prepaid mobile usage. I saw it full action and my my conviction is deeper that with and above layer 1 of the network, the vision has come true. ๐Ÿงก๐Ÿš€๐ŸŒ‹โšก๐Ÿ‡ญ๐Ÿ‡ณ

Big shout outs to Blink and Bitrefill for supporting the action I saw.

Is anyone working on more of a federated type node for LN? Not fedi or ecash, I mean LN. Perhaps a smaller and more localized version of a centralized node. Enable larger channels and more liquidity in a shared pool or node with a group of friends, family, whoever. But still have the keys and can withdraw or something.

I mean honestly, with my node I rarely ever have channel liquidity issues or routing fails anymore. But still would be sick.
