I’ve been trying to be very public with my fees, I list them in my Amboss node page.
Without making any substantial changes otherwise, I’ve noticed a major uptick in people opening channels to me, even for a small node like mine.
It’d be awesome if Amboss support markdown in their description or something, formatting is a bitch.

I agree, and I’m btc only, I just worry this post probably leaves an opening for someone to promote their preferred shitcoin still
I think taro will be the next “Killer app” for btc. It will be a great tool for persuading the unpersuaded
Can you explain how this helps?
It looks like you just named a channel something nice then asked for inbound liq.
Holding mostly cash for now, also interested in stocks that will likely rebound after a newsworthy crash. Naturally I’m stacking sats as well.
Im also spending a lot of time learning about the lightning network. It feels like by the next bull cycle, new nodes will be mostly be managed by publicly traded companies, so establishing yourself as a contender early may keep you afloat much longer, similar to mining operations.
I agree health, safety, food security and rest are some of my highest priorities.
Recently I’ve seen Guy Swann on Dave Smiths podcast, and Marty Bent on Liberty Lockdown, but they seemed like introductions, still.
I’d love to see deeper ties created between the self-sovereign BTC people & the young faces of libertarian culture
I wonder what a “monetizable” user is? Probably someone who views ads in the app, right?
My guess is most bots aren’t interfacing with a Twitter client at all, just a command prompt, so would they even be considered “monetizable”?
What are possible explanations for why someone did this?
Here’s me brainstorming:
- standard procedure consolidate utxos on an exchange
- flood the mempool to raise cost of tx
- presumably to limit moving crypto to/from exchanges
Thoughts?
I am good with analogies. Like Stephan Molyneux
I’m also a software developer, who’s strongest asset is telling a PM wtf other developers are talking about.

I don’t think it’s worthwhile to pretend that BTC has a stable value.
The way I think about it is - fiat currencies like the dollar have optimized fulfilling as much of the total accessible market, as possible, making sacrifices on the soundness and hardness of the money.
Bitcoin on the other hand does the opposite (and it’s obviously much newer), where it maintains its hardness/soundness at the cost of a slower adoption (relative to fiat).
The instability of bitcoin come from the fact is that it’s significantly lower on the adoption curve, but it maintains excellent fundamentals. Fiat again, the opposite.
I guess the point I’m making is that it’s impossible to measure “stability” given both variables have different unstable properties. Let’s just be honest about it.
From my understanding — to have a public facing email address that doesn’t reveal your actual inbox & allows people to get into your real inbox at a price.
This is great. Lightning truly brings a native currency to the internet.
I’d really love to see more guides & libraries for web developers to simply integrate their apps with lightning.
Lightning is the new subscription service, authentication service & micropayment service.
