Funny money developer @felix.7252 on Signal

Using the NWC plugin daily, one cool thing for example is that you can run Electrum as daemon (headless, no GUI) on some server.

You can now also do submarine swaps over nostr to get inbound liquidity, there is also documentation on how to run a swap server to provide liquidity for submarine swaps:

This is for advanced users that want to earn fees.

I totally agree that it would be really confusing for existing bitcoiners, especially as not every exchange/wallet would adopt it. I don't think it has a real chance of happening either.

Although thinking from the perspective of a nocoiner, I imagine the benefits would outweigh the confusion due to the arguments above.

Maybe people like the word "sats" more than I think, idk, i just feel like sats is not a good name for a monetary unit, and bitcoin has good branding already.

The unit itself (the current sat) is great though.

Emerging technologies conference sounds actually interesting, they seem to do a good job finding emerging technologies considering they featured bitcoin in 2011.

I wonder if there is something of similar signal, privately organized, that's not just AI slop etc..🤔

Speaking from the experiences I made in my circles/culture/language I think the word "bitcoin" is just easier to use and more well known already.

If I tell a nocoiner about a "Satoshi" they usually haven't heard of it before, and it feels kind of weird because its the name of a "Person" rather than a neutral thing. Sounding somewhat Asian makes it even worse for acceptance with more traditional folks as it feels a bit foreign.

Just my vibes, I don't think this will get changed tbh as its years too late, but it would be nice imo.

Glaube nicht dass das irgendwie zur Reinigung beiträgt, ja

Das Salz wird in der Maschine nur verwendet um den Ionentauscher zu regenerieren, die Salzlake kommt nie mit dem Geschirr in Kontakt afaik.

Ich denke am wichtigsten sind für ein Spülmittel oberflächenaktive Stoffe (Tenside), da diese es ermöglichen fettige (unpolare) Rückstände in Wasser (polar) zu lösen.

The getalby one is intended for NWC use.

Would be nice if clients used more than a single relay though, so connections would have more redundancy.

Highly addictive and most criminals drink it too!

At least there is no way to store funds for a prolonged time, this would make rugs a lot more attractive for the provider.

I think its a good functionality/safety tradeoff they made, probably the least amount of custody you can have while offering lightning escrow.

I think it works since they introduced splicing but not sure if that is the reason.
