Alright Nostr, let's have a discussion about the current state of the lightning network.

My question is this: What is the threshold that you are comfortable transacting over the lightning network?

In other words, at what dollar amount do you say no to lightning and transact on-chain instead?

I send zaps and other micro-payments on a daily basis and everything works great. I'm perfectly confident using lightning for daily, mundane amounts, but how much is too much? If I sell someone a side of beef and need to accept payment over $1000 in value, does lightning have the necessary liquidity for that transaction, or should that amount be sent on-chain despite the high fees?

I'd especially like to hear from those who run their own lightning node and other vendors who use lightning for point of sale.

I’ve gotten $500 payments to go through but that’s the max. Liquidity is constantly improving but it’s a slow process

Black Rat Snake

These snakes are common here on the homestead and they get huge! This one is least 4ft long. I hope this snake does some good work eating varmints!

Man I wish snakes didn’t scare the piss outta me. They are cool creatures but I just can’t get over a lifelong fear every time I’m in an area that may be home to snakes

Great post by #[0]​ https://medium.com/breez-technology/we-need-more-apps-with-lightning-not-more-lightning-apps-b5f37f9ac8bd

“The other road to mainstream adoption is utility — leveraging Lightning’s strengths and our technological acumen to make it more useful. Maximizing utility doesn’t require convincing people that this or that idea is superior; it just requires making their lives better in some way and letting the free market do its thing.”

I’m all about the free market doing it’s thing and excited to see how utility drives #lightningnetwork adoption.

Looks like #start9 and #umbrel are both releasing a private server hardware.

So these guys are un-initiated in BTC, (small coffee farm) so, as part of onboarding was just curious if there’s a back end switch they can throw to start taking USD payments through lightning (or BTC) on the “powered by Shopify” web platform/extension. ⚡️

Something easy, but would love for them to start selling to Bitcoiners. Any ideas?

I would love this. I have a friend that has an online business I’d love to get set up in accepting BTC as well but don’t know where to begin haha

Also no experience whatsoever with bitcoin

Perhaps getting set up through a #voltage node? Running #btcpayserver ?
