Why does Bitcoin struggle to find its place in the real economy of supply chains, factories, and things? What role does credit play in building the economy, and could a new layer on top of Bitcoin be the missing piece? Hubertus Hofkirchner is an economist and entrepreneur from Austria. Hubertus is a key figure in developing the Bitcredit Protocol, an open-source initiative focussed on building a flexible credit money layer on top of Bitcoin for enabling businesses to finance working capital needs, using bills of exchange and ecash. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yG4Lmv_uScM Other ways to listen: https://www.thetransformationofvalue.com/episodes/where-are-the-bitcoin-supply-chains-with-hubertus-hofkirchner

I just made my first Lightning payment from my own node! + Ride the Lightning. This is incredible. Not nearly as difficult as I thought. I have connected my node to wallet as well. This tutorial from Satoshi Radio helped a lot: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i9VTtDPQeZs The only issue I encountered testing payments on Ride the Lightning was the need for a "max-fee" to be set, which was not available on the dashboard payment widget, but which can be found under "Advanced Settings". Will keep learning! #MOE
