Bitcoin version of poly market. It's very hard to build in a non custodial way
Had 2 steaks while in Germany. One was steak frites, the other this ribeye, however the ribeye was Australian wagyu so not a totally fair evaluationm
Overall 6/10, nothing special but I enjoyed the steak more than I have in other European countries.

I don't blame anyone. We definitely didn't handle it the best. At the time the CLN team had limited resources because you were on sabbatical and rusty was working on GSR.
We would normally post issues in the discord and often not get replies for days which is where a lot of frustration came.
Really I think most of our frustration stemmed from any cln issue was that it always 2 fold for us, one it'd look bad to our users and we'd also then have to go bother the voltage team for assistance. And for a lot of it we just felt powerless.
However I know we're not totally crazy, I've seen multiple companies try cln and move off it for various reasons
We had issues where it went down for multiple days, would lose on chain funds, and it being in C makes it really hard to debug anything.
I wouldnt recommend cln, I've had a lot of issues with it in the past
Ldk is being deployed in a lot of new things these days, and what I'd recommend.
They basically stopped working on new features besides Taproot assets. They haven't even finished migrating off of bolt db that they've been working on for years.
I've done no caffeine most my life, anytime I drink some it ruins my sleep for days, idk how people have it every day
As the recent trials have shown, exchanges and chain analysis companies are grossly incompetent at actually identifying coins so it could be pretty easy to arbitrage without actually giving up anything.
