The more I learn about Bolt 12, the more sceptical I am that it will really solve the primary pain point in Lightning -- that you need to be online to receive a payment, and most normies use phones, which aren't online all the time. Bolt 12 is nice because it allows for "reusable" QR codes, but I'm not convinced that it's THAT much better than what we have already with LNURL and Lightning Addresses. It also adds a lot more potential for fuckups, since messages transmitted through Lightning are generally harder to track & debug when compared to old-school HTTP stuff.

cashu mint running on your own node, mint ecash for your kids and let them use it as a lightning wallet :)

I setup sub wallets for my kids on my LnBits

my daughter is only 6 months 🤣 but im building her a lightning piggy. nostr:npub1y2qcaseaspuwvjtyk4suswdhgselydc42ttlt0t2kzhnykne7s5swvaffq

What do you mean goodbye 900 sats?

For those using zeusnuts, are you able to zap Coinos addresses? It’s not working for me

I bet steak and shake made a shit ton of sales today….

Bitcoin is good for business

I haven't seen a single complaint about steak n shake lightning payments failing.

On my end it was a couple seconds and seamless. What a great job

My BitAxe is connected to my network but is showing at Gh 0.0 and not mining.

It was working fine yesterday.

I feel like this happened before but I can't remember what I did to fix it.

Can you run knots on Start9?

It says it’s installed and I had it installed for months now but click installed it takes me back to bitcoin core tab.

So is it actually installed or what?

BLOCKTIME IS A LUDICROUSLY INSANE WAY TO TELL TIME.

There, I said it.

#Bitcoin #Plebchain

Hard to say, this aint the kind of network with official stats ya know?

There seem to be about 1000 listening Knots nodes out of 21,000 total.

Non-listening is only tracked on Luke's site but it takes forever to update so basically hasn't moved yet.

I have never had mountain dew or Dr pepper

Am I missing out on anything?

I’m sorry, but I just can’t take this fucking logo seriously. What even is this, bitcoin for Hobbitses?

Truthfully tell me which you are currently eating:

1. Carnivore

2. Ketovore

3. Keto

4. Low-carb

5, Vegan

6. Vegetarian

7. I'm an idiot and don't think about food*

*If you're not thinking about your diet then big-food is doing your thinking for you, which means big-pharma is in your near future...

People that think that the only way that #bitcoin mining can survive is extra fees from inscriptions, don’t understand free markets, nor the difficulty adjustment.

If all prices fall to the marginal cost of production in a free market, and bitcoin is the first global free market that has ever existed, then block rewards are alone enough to keep a robust market for mining.

Why: because relative to Bitcoin (open, decentralized, secure, protocol, bounded by energy) the rewards are the same in 2130 as they are today because all prices are falling forever.

It’s hard to even imagine the abundance in that world or “money” that you would need because your reference frame is now and the past, but can you imagine our descendants (from that place)- ever changing back to this one.

Just a friendly reminder that creating different incentives, changes behaviour.

I haven't gone on real vacation since I started Peony Lane 5 years ago. Buying the Bitcoin "top" and making a bunch of wine that I had to store for 2+ years before selling made me a Brokie.

This feels incredible. 🧡

Aight' GM let's get this day started
