GLP-1 is the perfect pharma solution since you need to keep taking it forver otherwise you'll gain the weight back. Plus the side effects seem to be far from trivial, specially in fucking around with your gut

POLL: What "qualifies" as Bitcoin adoption?

JaniceHenderson7X7

adoption of what?
a guy on Africa who pays 10$ for a transaction is not going to adopt bitcoin. 
An idiot who buys a jpeg for 10$ yes.
the question is, what we want?

🤔 What Could Lightning's UX Look Like in 2025? 👀 

AlbertBurnettNFO

Very much disagree with this. USD is very relevant. It really bugs me all the people that say "1 sat = 1 sat". That's meaningless and blindly idealistic. No matter how you slice it, the exchange rate of BTC to USD determines everything. Don't agree? Alright then how about I hire you for 1 sat an hour? Oh not high enough for you? Why not? Is it because in order to buy things to sustain yourself you need more than that per hour? Why is that? Oh is it because things cost fiat money and 1 sat doesn't get you a lot of fiat money?

Don’t Care About Others

LindaMcmillanZ3Q

In a way it's almost "good" that it happens publicly and not behind our backs no?

I think the idea that bitcoin/lightning will unite people into "good" is a bit like the [Myth of the Peaceful Savage](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/War_Before_Civilization) -- we're only kind of united now because it's "us vs them", but in a Bitcoin-only world where the LN trumps VISA, we will start fighting amongst ourselves. Maybe with less inequality, we'll see.

At least Amboss is seen as a friendly adversary and it's better they develop this tool than someone else behind our backs, to see how we can counter it.

You are much more knowledgeable in the subject and I don't fully disagree with you -- it's obviously painful to see it. Just want to play devil's advocate and realize that for every good we bring in bitcoin there will be bad. For every bad someone does to us, there will be good.

As a territory owner, I've been scratching my head on my latest post about [finding the who, what & how creative stackers are in SN](https://stacker.news/items/693426/r/Design_r). Have been doing a lot of reading and diving deep into SN contents to find potential topics that I could bring up in the ~Design territory. It's true, _design_ is really broad, and different people understand it -and practice it- in different ways. Anyhow, I'm not here to talk about design, nor about the territory.
.
### Acknowledgements
I'd like to take this opportunity to express my gratitude to @davidw for his inspirational post [Top SN Territories - 17 weeks later](https://stacker.news/items/486959/r/Design_r), and @supratic for defining the KPIs I've been using on [Decrypting SN KPIs to define the "worthiness" of posting in the right territory](https://stacker.news/items/457310/r/Design_r).
.
### Table header definition
`(1)` **Profitability:** Weekly average `{spent}` by weekly average `{revenue}`.
`(2)` **Engagement:** The weekly average number of `{comments}` for each `{posts}`
`(3)` **Rev/Post:** An interesting metric for territory owners to adjust posting fee, mirroring it.
`(4)` **Worthiness:** Result of `{revenue/post}` less `{fee}` to help stackers evaluate the risk of posting on a territory. When negative means that there's a high probability that the sats you spend for posting will be lost.
.
### The data  
The data under consideration below has been fed the numbers available publicly available from the **[top territories](https://stacker.news/top/territories/week)** page. The range considered is from **March 31** to **September 7**; this is perhaps not accurate, and the boosts also produce false values on the averages. API access is awaited for more accuracy in overview and visuals.

May these data points provide you some insightful information, as they do to me.
