Merge fields, every discipline is a branch of nature… nature is the only industry.

I wonder how things will look 90 days from now. nostr:note1ef6wnftdkpzls4zygl2qmrsfhzddczmaad8fmngfq2kdrtwllapswrsvvj

Splicing together 1984, V for Vendetta, Brave New World and Ready Player One… that’s where we are this century.

How many revolutions will this decade contain? nostr:note1hj7xktcm833427tgl7vv6yqwvkvyv854gfrq6l2w6f77hfm75tlqvgvmre

Thanks nostr:npub1sg6plzptd64u62a878hep2kev88swjh3tw00gjsfl8f237lmu63q0uf63m for taking interest.

It’s due to cost mainly.

Costs peaked $593 USD in March when Eden was still geographically distributed and we averaged over 900 connections on each node for their respective time zones. We’ve since taken costs down, and the bills totalled $217 in the month of June.

Granted there have been some issues accepting payments in the last month mainly because Eden is running on less resources, but even so new signups tanked way before that to one or two a day.

We’ve got this far and we should have been able to turn things around however for me in particular work and personal life responsibilities have taken priority now more than ever, and that meant less time to code up new revenue streams in a timely manner.

This is why I’m so interested in the Sats4Files model where users pay per byte… rate-limited style.

Sats4Files automatically swaps data for #bitcoin over Lightning by hiding the file’s decryption key as the Time-Locked Contract’s preimage.

Micropayments under-the-hood, monthly payment accumulates. These arbitrary monthly prices may not be sustainable for relays.

I’ve been working constantly on Sats4Files over the last week or two, trying to find a way to make it faster as it relies on many 32 byte elliptic curve operations. Wish me luck! 🍀
