Even in the absence of a government, the LN will still be self-governing.
Peer selection will be based on the outcomes of P2P due diligence, either for operational concerns or affinity/enmity.
Don't get too hung up on applying laws today when you'll apply your own tomorrow.
He went by Nakamoto
But no one knew his game
They thought it was for money,
or possibly the fame
They called him Nakamoto
but no one guessed his play
He humbly mined as the world slept
They knew not, all had changed
His name was Nakamoto
Breaking the tyrant’s yoke
He mined the overlords to dust
Until the world awoke…

🗣️ I just paid an LN invoice from #alby and it cost me 7,311 #sats to send 640,000 sats. Why is it soooooo expensive? nostr:npub1getal6ykt05fsz5nqu4uld09nfj3y3qxmv8crys4aeut53unfvlqr80nfm #bitcoin #asknostr #btc (same transaction from nostr:npub1hcwcj72tlyk7thtyc8nq763vwrq5p2avnyeyrrlwxrzuvdl7j3usj4h9rq cost me 1 satoshi) 😳
A 1.1% fee?
Visa and MasterCard charge 3+% and don't deliver the funds for 2+ weeks.

Successful orange pilling of a pre-coiner (PC) when I tell them I work on Bitcoin:
PC: What is Bitcoin? Why is it valuable? Don't you have to mine it?
First, what do you already know about Bitcoin?
(Note: this is essential so you don't just start ranting at them)
PC: (Uses a lot of energy to mine, not backed, can't touch it)
Gold is valuable, but what property makes gold valuable? Out of all the things in the world, why gold?
PC: It's rare!
Exactly. The scarcity means that to find the next unit you have to spend a lot of energy and time. People can spend their entire lives digging and mining.
PC: But doesn't it waste a ton of energy to mine Bitcoin?
Bitcoin is also scarce so finding more Bitcoin requires a ton of energy. So you have to ask yourself if it's better to use electricity to find Bitcoin or to destroy mountains by mining for gold.
(Note: this landed so hard that the rest of it was easy. We talked for another hour or so.)
Someone has to do it and that person is meme
