which is actually a really tall order for bitcoin in particular, it’s the hardest system I’ve ever learned
bitcoin wins when everyone is empowered with understanding what the fuck is going on

finally, wrapping up the day is @realtbast talking about running the biggest LN node ⚡️ 
@negrunch gave a great summary of how @lnp2pbot works, and the move to @monstro 
next up was an AMA (not pictured); then @guggero from LL gave a talk about updates from the latest LN spec meeting 
after lunch, we had @tdryja give an intro to LN (using slides so historic that they were from before segwit existed!) 
first up was Christian talking about how bitcoin works, shortly followed by @niftynei doing a bitcoin LARP
