Gold has taken #bitcoin out behind the shed. It's over boys. Winter is coming. 🤣

I think this concept is valuable and essential. Attempting to remove someone's privacy should be a difficult onion to peel. That comes through layered cooperation across many digital fronts.

Sadly I learnt this lesson far too late in life. But totally agree.

Bottom up is how we destroy the choke points higher up the ladder.

Congrats - that's a solid output in just 6 weeks!!

I actually cannot stand this 'if you are young just do nothing' message. It's an utterly useless message to young people.

Some did.

They also close your lightning channels and you lose funds. So much fun to be had....

Exactly. When a fake doctor nearly kills you - that doesn't mean you turn to witchcraft as the solution.

Changing phones in general is a fucking debacle even inside Apples walled garden. Throw in a multi jurisdictional lifestyle and it's hell on a stick.

Why the fuck would the fee be 0.5%? Try 0.05% for providing a next to costless and automated service but zero economic value. Stop trying to rebuild an old economic extortion system.

Perhaps if there is a force closure of someone's lightning channel you could auto send the client a breakdown of what happened and clarity on the funds flow/fees etc. It's a shitty end user experience and undermines trust (understanding the closure might not be Alby's fault etc). I have zero idea why my channel would just cease to exist but I'm not keen to open a new one with Alby until I understand the why if it.

Really well said and well done 👏👏👏

Feel for this person. And it has absolutely nothing to do with Bitcoin.

Hard as a parent watching your kids suffer. Hope all are well soon!
