mark my words - all of WSB will be bitcoiners when all this is over

Working on and setting up this LN node has kinda sent me down the rabbit hole of the lightning network

I need more nodes

My node

Incoming channels more than welcome

Fees are lower, eh?

Time to open some lightning channels ⚡

These aren't moderated or approved by me.

This is just what everyone in our fed feed is talking about

I see this as a win

"Decentralized Twitter"

Funnily enough this is also something my (I feel they are pre-coiner) parents brought up as I discussed bitcoin with them over the weekend

“How do we know they won’t decide to make more coins later??? 21 million coins isn’t even enough for everyone to have one!!! Of course they’ll print more!”

Early

If only there was a way to determine numbers of things based on related numbers

Or read about how the code works so I could have known there was a way I could know how many coins would be minted, how often, for how long... preferably, before Coppola made a fool out of us all...

Sometimes I wonder about the kind of funhouse these nocoiners live in

I’ll believe this when I see it. If what he is doing with Bluesky is actually decentralized, not only will it be futile to deplatform people, he would be removing everyone’s ability to do so - and he’s already demonstrated he feels a responsibility to deplatform people, at least in certain situations. Good to see he is getting help from a few Mastodon devs though.

My guess is that our idea of decentralized is “no central authority” and his idea of decentralized is “distributed”, meaning he still hodls moderation power but pays less in server and maintenance costs

The only reason Jack wouldn’t join an existing decentralized network, and creates his own instead would be that his idea of decentralized isn’t actually everyone else’s idea of decentralized

The fact that most clocks with Roman numerals have “IIII” and not “IV” for the 4 position bothers me

My parents said that bitcoin will eventually “print” more than 21 million.

It’s still VERY, very early.
