Patients are always held accountable through their illnesses, length and quality of life, etc...
Thank God Ross is free!!! He was wrongfully convicted and railroaded.

This man is an American Hero and needs a hero's welcome back to his native land without fear of CIA assassination. Let Snowden come home !
who would dare start a fight with an army that had such a weapon. It's the best deterrent ever!
One more layer of irony added.
Told them at 10k, 30k, 60k 90k that it's still early.
Keep telling them at 100k. We've never been wrong. They keep thinking they've missed the boat.
Get a wallet. I tried to give you money. You must hate money. lol
100k Party time!🥳
Not that anything will come of it of course.
The problem is that Hunter now has no jeopardy to himself and thus the 5th ammendment no longer applies. He can be forced to give testimony now about others or face more prison time for refusing or perjuring himself.
Lethality in otherwise healthy people is less than one percent. Healthy people usually get an upset stomach and diarrhea and recover in less than a week.
Risk/reward.
The Arab spring started when the internet was shut off.
Perhaps spending more time doing something about it and less time talking about it on the internet? Shut your phone off and get to work?
There is an anecdote about a moment durring Jr Bush's years. He was asked about some protests. "Let them. So long as they pay their taxes." And nothing changed.
I get it. Its risky. Who wants to go first or be loudest. Free speech has done little until it inspires to action.
And sure. Guilty as charged here.
Imagine the amount of preparation he put into this. https://video.nostr.build/a9f736deef7562dc973c91efc7c7e0381d384a3c8b6de3c4a360aa0ed6c9ebd6.mp4
Here is a previous record over 2km in a pretty good documentary if you want to see preparations.
Keep in mind that history tends to ignore his pro-commie ideas, heretical beliefs and denial of more than one historically essential Christian doctrines.
IE, we're only taught that he was anti-Nazi, thus a good person to be lauded. Stalin was anti-Nazi. Just sayin.
When you sell/lease a channel, you will open the channel to the buyer who has paid you for the channel. Since they are buying from you this means they want inbound liquidity for themselves. When you open to them, you will have the outbound from the start. However they wouldn't be buying it if they didn't plan on using it so the channel should move more liquidity to your inbound side over time. Depending on the buyer this could be very quickly. You'll have to decide on a fee rate and if/how you want to keep the channel balanced based on it's profitability to you and the terms of your agreement with them.
They want to receive payments through your channel. They're paying you for their inbound capacity to them.
If you are selling a lightning channel (selling a lease for a set time duration) your liquidity would be stored in that channel (controlled by your lightning node) on the lightning network. Your lightning node is usually operating through your BTC node. All of these are your nodes and your wallets. So yes, sort of. It's indirectly on chain. Its just on layer two, the lightning network, fully under your control. You are only subject to your honor in keeping the channel open for the agreed upon duration for the agreed upon fees. If you fail, your reputation and ability to do such business on Amboss is all that's at stake. This assumes you can keep your lightning node up and running and have the knowledge/skills to recover your funds in case of a node failure.
In short, you have control but the risk is your LN node failing and your loss of funds due to failing to have proper backups/redundancies in case your node goes down. With proper operation knowledge and backup/restoration plans the risk is low. But there is risk.
That said, if you fire up a LN with say 1BTC and sell one channel for .5btc, this leaves you with .5btc to open other channels that will make your leased channel valuable to the person leasing it. For instance, if the only channel you have is that one .5btc channel then it is useless to the person you leased it to as no one can route a payment to them through it. They'll likely do their own due diligence and not lease from you in that case. However if they do, that's on them. But, you would only get the leasing fee and you wouldn't make any extra money routing payments through that channel to them.
If you didn't know this already, you probably don't have a lightning node. Perhaps a wallet but not a node. If that's the case, I'd suggest you begin by looking into node operation and see if the time and effort is worth it to you. If you are familiar with lightning nodes enough to know it's not worth the time and effort for you, then this isn't for you either.
No judgment, just the facts from assumptions based on your question.
No need for a video, he would have frozen when you asked him a question anyway.
It's Bitcoin. All news is good news. It's just another chance for people to see 'Honey Badger don't give a shit.'
The part I hate about onboarding new friends at these levels is, it's not unlikely that this cycle's crash could dip below these prices and I go from hero to therapist trying to keep them from folding.
That first cycle is the toughest. On the bright side, if they make it through they'll be among the diamond hand permabulls from there on.
