Could it be that a few people in suits are meeting on Jekyll Island again today and hatching a plan because they feel threatened by competition? And are afraid that they will lose control? What's wrong, Mr. Warburg?
congrats to everybody in the space
that is just 15 years ago - this short story is already an incredible success today - try to imagine what it will look like in another 15 years !
I for one can't. no way.
I hope it will be of real help to people.

Creature from Jekyll Island: "Federal Reserve....
It becomes obvious that the system is merely a cartel with a government facade."
indignez-vous !
he wants to belong; no matter what the cost.
a socio-psychological problem that is often encountered, not only in times of crisis
"Held-to-maturity"
It's kind of like someone who knows he is dying says: no, I won't be dead, I'll let myself be frozen - that is: "held-to-maturity" - and then I won't be dead, just frozen. I won't be dead until I'm thawed out at some point and only if then it becomes clear, that there are no signs of life whatsoever ... o.k., then and only then I am dead.
remarkable !
We, the peoples, have to prevent the deep state from sitting with his fat ass on Bitcoin too and turning it against us.
seems, that we have just that one shot. in our lifetime.
If we fail, then in 50 - 70 years the word "freedom" will no longer exist in the sense we know today.
SLP and Christian in
are kind of convinced, that payments going stuck happened only in the past!
nothing more besides the point than that!
My u experience is as bad as two years ago. Most payments get stuck, folks! Be realistic.
And, lightning still does not have foolproof backup and restore mechanisms for the different implementations. How are folks are expected to fill up channels with their funds, if these mechanisms are simply not there. If they are most likely going to fuckup?
Iam a huge proponent and from 2017 in lightning, tinkering and putting skin into the game. But, pls do not let us paint a false picture.
Especially LNC has a huge problem with making it proverbially dead simple to backup and restore a node. This hsm-secret BS is highly distressful.
o.k., then,
this is the end of the Raspberry Pi 4 - era
umbrel and Blitz - Raspberry Pi 4 - are out of the game
mixed feelings
"The value of bitcoin peaked at USD 69,000 in November 2021 before falling to USD 17,000 by mid-June 2022. Since then, the value has fluctuated around USD 20,000. For bitcoin proponents, the seeming stabilization signals a breather on the way to new heights. More likely, however, it is an artificially induced last gasp before the road to irrelevance – and this was already foreseeable before FTX went bust and sent the bitcoin price to well below USD16,000."
