Come on just open channels to nodes and push half (!on signet only!)
Find nodes here: https://mempool.space/signet/lightning
Other stuff: https://dev.blink.sv/self-host/deployment/signet
The main Blink Staging signet node is: https://mempool.space/signet/lightning/node/024e679c1a77143029b806f396f935fa6cd0744970f412667adfc75edbbab54d7a
Thank you!
Whose two nodes do you mean?
Yea agree, nostr:nprofile1qqs24sraj5yfee4d7z9ez4k58sdy4dv5ccfsklwtztkpnyqgckqe5tcpyfmhxue69uhk6atvw35hqmr90pjhytngw4eh5mmwv4nhjtnhdaexcep0qyw8wumn8ghj7mn0wd68ytngw4eh5mmwv4nhjtnhdaexcep0q9z8wue69uhnxuns094h2amxwpnk56t209kngdtnwe3h5an6wp382u3kwsm8sdrzxcmkcmnkwqm8w7rywfjnycm3daunvcf5v3ukgtn0de5k7m302pf0vm encouraged us to move nostr:nprofile1qqsglefmxagcu0d7nw4jdkgj9ysqrk9cst0fg44hkz9kzhu39hyt7jspz4mhxue69uhhyetvv9ujuerpd46hxtnfduhsxstmj8 staging from testnet to signet maybe 2 years ago (great move) but it's tricky finding other services/users to test things against
Oh please share your pubkey I’ll want to open a channel!
Is there a swap service on signet yet too? Could be a good way to make your own inbound (cc nostr:nprofile1qqsqcdcltmv4qanpx3p7svcufdsg9rkk00x7l2sknra4e6whkv59l7cppemhxue69uhkummn9ekx7mp0qythwumn8ghj7un9d3shjtnswf5k6ctv9ehx2ap0qywhwumn8ghj7mn0wd68ytnzd96xxmmfdejhytnnda3kjctv9uke3478)
So far there’s very little on signet, just two nodes and a channel. But I hope others will be moving their infrastructure there too
I used the suggestion, 30. It said it succeeded every time I tried, but only one of the transactions eventually appeared onchain.
Use these scripts with your Bitcoin Core on signet: https://github.com/ajtowns/powcoins
Delivers full coins in a few blocks.
Awesome, thanks again for the suggestion! Just got some signet sats and am ready to open channels!
I do need enough to meet the minimum requirements for channels, practically speaking that’s probably 100k sats per channel. I am open to the idea of permissioned public testing networks, where I pay for “cycles” in the form of coins.

Fascinating, thank you! Just tried it out, let’s see if these coins arrive!
Anybody else running a Signet Lightning node? I’d appreciate the inbound!

So where does one buy these signet coins? What’s the rate? Pointers welcome!

Congrats to you both!
It should absolutely blow your mind that we now have open source money and open source payment networks. Even the boldest cypherpunks weren’t confident this would ever be possible just 20 years ago. Don’t sleep on it!
Two individuals, both using the web checkin. The map was very different, for one passenger it only showed almost all middle seats as available, but no other seats. For the other it showed a more random map, with some middle seats, a few aisle seats and very few window seats available.
I learned that when you check in for a flight, the seat map may not show all available seats. Pretty mind blown when I noticed two passengers on the same Air Canada flight were presented with entirely different seat maps
Saw this machine near Toronto airport that lets you withdraw cash from your bank card, buy Bitcoin (currently disabled) with cash and take out loans. It says a gambling functionality will come soon 
It’s a hard uphill battle. I think what’s next is we have to figure out how to help people earn sats, so they have sats to spend
Being able to perform swaps with other providers on existing infrastructure is a great benefit, no? I can’t run all swap services on my local network and also one day hope to be able to interact with RGB channels. Having to spin up a new node, acquire coins and open channels for each system i might interact with feels cumbersome and wasteful. I desire a “common” testnet Lightning Network
And then convince competitors to join that same signet to test their infrastructure too? Why would they? Yet testing the compatibility of these infrastructures seem to be the primary benefit of a public testnet
LL will have to make the decision where to move testing infrastructure to, but from this conversation it doesn’t sound like testnet3/4 have a future or is run with expectations that are compatible with what we need in the long run. Having a network that allows for connectivity with people testing other implementations and services (LSPs, swap providers, payment processors) on the same network is important though. Paying a tiny amount for testing is fine though from my perspective. Test/signet coins are API tokens, aren’t they?
