Software engineer 💻 geeking out on Bitcoin, if I’m not watching something about space and the universe 🔭 then you’ll probably find me fishing 🎣 or gaming 🎮

⚡️ Lightning network is actually mind blowing, I’ve made 78 payments in the last 10 days, total fees paid was 512 sats, here’s the interesting part… of those 78 transactions 3 of them make up the fee of 510 sats, these 3 transactions where on chain to lightning transactions (topup wallet), that means for the other 75 transactions made, only 2 sats in fees was collected by routing nodes 🤯

Yeah it’s odd but beautiful, the standards that relays can implement is what’s been missing. A simple standardised set of rules is all it took to now being able to switch clients, no need to signup again and know I’m still working with the same data/connected to the same great minds. Let’s not forget TCP existed in the 70’s but it wasn’t until the early 90’s until we saw HTTP

Ok that was fun, ill be sowing more sat seeds tomorrow night 🧡 have a great night 🤙 #plebchain

To my followers, apologies if all my replies have just filled your posts stream, I’ll refrain to reduce the noise 💜
