I was stuck in the #Bitcoin lightning network and had a hard time to find the enthusiasm I had when I interacted with it for the first time in 2020. But the past couple of days I’m testing nostr:npub1ex7mdykw786qxvmtuls208uyxmn0hse95rfwsarvfde5yg6wy7jq6qvyt9 in Europe and that brought me back to where my lightning journey started
🧵👇🏼1/4
2/4 Not because of the app itself, which is great by the way, simple, no distractions, lightning native but also the possibility to get your #bitcoin onchain. It was because of me sending €5,- to Ghana 🇬🇭 in a split second using only a phone number. https://video.nostr.build/2754696e2e365f9370aeacae075b6a05af480e7724d39e3a1164b9ac6cc6d73a.mp4
3/4 There was an issues with Bitnob that led to a delay in notifying nostr:npub1yyt2uhvjsdfqpfuqe4e9k0ft4cy6ln0z2jv2unvywj49hmhx4tkqw0vz67 he received the money. But he did receive my €5,- in his currency of preference (USD), with a fairly decent exchange rate ($0.05 lost)

4/4 The thing that stoot out to me the most was that we both didn’t noticed the lightning network was used, it was all under the hood. A lot of the guests we had on the show at Connect The World say that bitcoin succeeds when people don’t know they’re using #bitcoin anymore. Here it is!
