Wicked Game is one of the best songs of all time

Imho Saylor collecting a shitload of money right now. We haven’t seen huge buys from strategy the past weeks. I guess he’s gonna destroy a ton of shorts the upcoming weeks.

You should do it. I hardly had any failed txs. With the combo of eCash scaling is basically infinite.

LN will get the job done to a high degree (see LN factories), and maybe something with ARK thrown in the mix, or something else will. The main thing to never forget, is that, these layer2s are being built upon the rock that is Bitcoin, its decentralised pow network is the clear winner in terms of decentralization and resilience/security and network effects, by a clear in undisputed margin. All of there other higher TPS numbers are centralised, including solana et al. they can never climb out of that hole, they’re not sound money, they will never be - bitcoin is, done enough said, and then we build and innovate everything on top of it. That’s my take, but I’m still learning.

I am studying how the LN works in practice. I do plan to run a node to measure real life speed.

Thanks, but the math is wrong.

Lightning Network transfers fail frequently, TPS in the case of Visa and Solana measures an end to end transaction not a path traversed in a transaction which fails.

Real transaction speed for the LN is as far as I know not documented and the reliability is lower than Visa. Which anyone who uses it regularly will tell you.

I respectfully have seen no evidence about the LN speed you talk about. Could you share some docs or how this number was calculated? It looks wrong.

visa can process 24k to 60k transactions per second

Fachwerk, too?

Treating a dog like a human baby is a sign of a culture in steep decay.

Rumors swirl that the US government could revalue the #Gold in Fort Knox — potentially unlocking ~$430 BILLION for a budget-neutral move to accumulate #Bitcoin.

A historic monetary shift is closer than you might think. 🇺🇸 💥
