The upper bound is 170M as that's the size of the current UTXO set. Now many people control keys to more than one UTXO (often they control hundreds) and then of course exchanges own many of those, so the upper bound on actual folks self custodying is much smaller. My guess would be that the actual number is somewhere between 1M and 10M worldwide.
Meme is by definition something that's shared, copied, modified. Maybe you are thinking of "a picture"?
Put differently - sharing, copying and modifying is what causes a picture to become meme.
On Linux try OpenTyrian, OpenTTD as two fun oldschool games. Otherwise you can install RetroArch and play any older game across any console.
The Android based game handhelds (like Retroid Pocket 5) are essentially a combination of a phone and game console. It has the best from both worlds and I really appreciate those, since it runs literally all games ever done up to Playstation 2... :)
In terms of smartphone gaming, "Retry!" from Rovio is my favorite game on smartphone that you can no longer get. There are ways to get the .apk (I have it), but it's no longer on app stores. If there's anyone that beat Retry!, I would love to be your friend!
Last time I tried using Fountain, the feature that was quite hard to use was listening to podcasts...
I just want to have couple podcasts I follow, see their episodes and then download the episodes I select and later when I'm on a flight I want to listen to those, while being able to skip ads quickly.
I keep an eye on solutions like this with a hope that it can provide
- solid private transactions by default (that are better than lightning)
- be easily self custodial by default (better than lightning)
- fees and price comparable to lightning
- speed comparable to lightning
- cheap conflict resolution (better than lightning)
- non interactive sending/static addresses (better than default lightning)
- ux of "get app and receive immediately"
- can onboard self custodially a billion people
- no need to be online for a long time
- easy recovery in another wallet/app
Since you have a product director experience - What are the main objectives that you are trying to go for with your current work and what metrics do you use to understand how well you are doing? :)
When are the Square Point-of-Sale terminals going to allow payment with lightning in San Francisco? What is currently the biggest blocker? Has the test at bitcoin conference been successful? Do you have any video of the experience?
