Lightning Network looks like a ugly crocodile furious for most of us, non techie people... We are so far from bitcoin mass adoption, and LN just can't help it at all, unfortunately!? Or maybe I don't know and am wrong... What do you think?
I hope LN can grow to be a viable solution, but it's def not there yet. A bigger concern for me is - the vast majority of people just don't care or even think about monetary technology. It's like that old joke with the fish asking 'how is the water today?' and the other fish replying 'what water?' - most people don't even think to question the money, they think it's something fixed like gravity or the kilogram, so it's very hard to get people to realise it's even something worth thinking about...

Right. I see this also here in EuropeπŸ€” πŸ™ˆ Apropos about LN, how did you create that nice email address or LN address, whatever it is, CasaDeSatoshi@stacker.news?! And how do you use it? Thanks.

Not sure tbh, maybe it's an old feature? I'm guessing it was auto allocated when I made this profile? I've never logged in to any email server under that address.
Casa Satoshi is my business in San Cris, Chiapas. You can find us on Instagram if you wanna see more about who we are and what we're about πŸ€—

I've cheched my profile and I got also a nice but useless email address teodor@stacker.news... I don't understand why these devs are creating such useless email address... πŸ™ˆ
I tried to send emails but it doesn't work, but it has to be good for some reason... πŸ€”
I will check your business on insta! :)
I ve tested email, so it doesn't work, so I don't get it what's good for...?! πŸ€” πŸ™ˆ

There, I sent you ten sats from my own wallet, you should see a notification, and you never had to give me an invoice.
reply
It's a Lightning address. You send money there.
Instead of doing the whole invoice thing, just write the address and how many sats you want to send (of course this has to be done from a Lightning wallet) and the wallet linked to that address will receive the sats

I am trying to send you back sats, but nothing works in this mess... Looks like LN is for people who have time to learn abracadabra techie rules, man... πŸ€” πŸ€• πŸ™ˆ
Sorry, but I give up trying to use these nonsense, but will continue to read, comment, and push the spark found on the left side of these comments! Of course, when I like the text.
Thanks for trying to help me with this techie mess. All the best!
