I think so too. Lots of underrated plebs here also.

The kids loved it of course. The time it took to make it and the costs didn't really add up though

I had an idea to put little toy dinosaurs into clay eggs so the kids could smash them for fun. The clay was $15 and I started looking into how to make clay myself.

I ended up just buying it, but this kind of thing happens a lot. If I can find a cheaper way by doing it myself, I go that route.

It would likely be only the large nodes like Acinq, Kraken, Binance, LNbig, or WoS.

So if I understand correct, the hops are added at the beginning. Bob wants to pay Lisa privately. Lisa generates an invoice which Bob pastes into rack. Bob pick out your node to initiate more hops and another invoice is generated.

At this point is my node exposed to Bob?

Would setting this be exposing your node?

Don't get me started on:

Eye-rak Eye-ran Eye-talian

This could be an American English thing that has triggered you. It does sound funny when they confidently pronounce something the wrong way.

The thing with language is that if enough people do it, it becomes right.

How many LN nodes are able to route 2 BTC?

Fair.

But who sends 2 BTC over lightning?

Wish there were some scheme that we could send a bunch of home miners from northern to southern hemispheres every 6 months.

I just had a play. Lots of failures.

I know its not real, but why is there such a high amount to send? (1m-200m sats)

I'm interested to see how they do it. I haven't used WoS in years.

Interesting...

I'd like to know what exactly is happening under the hood here.

Oh, they aren't using lightning? I read about this a few months ago. Pretty interesting, but I thought it was still in testing.

It would be tragic, but I really believe that what a lot of us know about Bitcoin is enough. You would simply need to start stacking again. Whatever you save goes into Bitcoin.

Well... Yes, but not as much as you would need to migrate to Australia or the US.

Last time I looked it was something like 500k Euros that you could use to buy a property or set up a business.

It's rare to see someone post something like this. Good for you!

Thanks!

I usually delete the string to the equals sign. Will get rid of that too next time.

I wouldn't personally. I bought the M3 when it first came out. It does the job of course, but there are cheaper options like a Jade.
