KPMG comes out with article describing how Bitcoin is ESG friendly.

Get ready for BTC to become the new bond market for the institutions. Get it while you can!

I'm so fuckin bullshit!

I don't know if it's your interest. But I enjoy the banter of the All In podcast. An interesting one this week talking about LK99.

Ah yes. That song haunts us perpetually. Always brings a smile to my face.

There are few things better than getting together with bitcoiners who are working to make everything work. Last week at nostr:npub1theparkprcs70dcs437ke9zzwsr6u60f8flu7rg28m30438aep9sd94dha for the Lightning Summit was something special.

Lightning has a ways to go, but there is a ton of progress being made.

If anything, the summit reinforced the reality scaling bitcoin is hard. Very hard. Luckily for us, there are extremely smart people focused on the problem and shipping solutions that are bringing the network to more and more people every day.

The question that remains is just how sovereign the network will be when all is said and done. Things are pretty centralized right now, but it is getting easier to be a sovereign lightning user over time. The hope is that we can get the UX around sovereign usage to the point of parity with every day fintech apps before the fee market prices sovereign users out.

Well put. Totally agree with your comments.

I too am concerned about how sovereign it will be ultimately. The trick of channel management without a trusted third party and still being simple for the masses seems like a tough ask. All the amazing developers are doing great things. I just wonder if the core architecture of lightning can be that sovereign layer 2 without significant Band-Aids to make it sovereign.

kaloudis just announced nostr:npub1xnf02f60r9v0e5kty33a404dm79zr7z2eepyrk5gsq3m7pwvsz2sazlpr5 no longer requires you run a separate lightning node 🫡

- embedded node on your phone

- no channel management necessary

- self custody as expected

- users will be prompted at first start if they want to connect to an existing remote node or create a new wallet

Very interesting.

Something like mutiny? I suppose.

Are you still relying on an lsp for channel management. Is Zeus the channel management (or voltage)?
